AdFed Suncoast AdNites - Thinking: Slow Down to Get Through Faster

AdFed
Suncoast is excited to announce the presentation topic and speaker for its
premier AdNites Dinner & Drinks Marquee program scheduled for October 17th.
Cal McAllister, CEO and Executive Creative Director of the Wexley School for Girls (not a school, but an
advertising agency in Seattle, WA), will lead an engaging and unique
presentation on how to slow down and effectively plan your brand’s message
prior to swiftly communicating with your audience. In today’s fast paced world,
it’s imperative you take the time to develop a detailed strategy to ensure your
ideas are spreadable and long-lasting.





Cal
McAllister is a Detroit native who co-founded the Wexley School for Girls in
2003, an ad agency that likes to act more like a fan factory. His agency has created
buzz-worthy campaigns for clients such as Microsoft, ESPN, Ford, Wilson Tennis
and the Seattle Sounders. Cal draws on industry experience to provide real-life
examples and case studies that will educate AdNites attendees on how to slow
down in the midst of all the noise to craft a campaign that is integrated,
unique and enduring in today’s busy marketplace.





In his
upbeat presentation, McAllister will provide valuable insight for ad agency
employees, marketing managers, freelancers, and any professional who may
struggle from time to time to express their brand’s message and get it heard.
