This is another piece from early in my career.
The agency I was working at found out that the review for the SKI THE SUMMIT account was reopened at 1:45 p.m. on a Friday afternoon.
Scrambling quickly, we put together a “foot in the door” piece with ad samples and broadcast reels by 5 p.m. This panel appeared on the outside of the box.
The inside reveal said:
“That’s exactly how we feel.
We heard your account is still available.”
P.S. We got into the pitch–and won the account.

I was out on my own for a number of years during the virtual agency gig under the moniker Alley Grant & Logan (named for my garage office between Grant & Logan in Denver). So what did I do during those years I was out on my own?
Provide “big agency” strategies and concepts to businesses
that couldn’t afford “big agency” retainers & fees.
These pieces highlight my niche: high quality/low price.

This is one of the very first ad campaigns I ever worked on.
I still like it because it exemplifies my personal credo:
understand the product, the person who buys it—and why.
