Should’ve been “Your Go-to place to go places” would’ve solved both problems imo

The one place you go, notwithstanding the existence of other places you might choose to go for the same purpose, to go places of your choosing from a range of options you may choose from based on your specific needs at the time of said choosing

70% of my job is watching good ideas become terrible ideas over a series of unnecessary meetings

after you work in marketing/copywriting it's impossible to unsee everywhere you go

per legal you’re not allowed to imply you’re the “one place” because we have multiple locations. we’ve updated the copy to “the one of many places you could, or could not, go to go places, possibly.”

I think this when I see Wendy’s slogan: “quality that doesn’t cut corners is our recipe.” I bet it started as “quality doesn’t cut corners” and then a committee got a hold of it.

My theory is that the research team has found that using words like “one” and “only” increase site visits by 3% and no matter how much the creative team begs the executive just don’t see it

as an advertising creative i LOVE this game 😂 it's especially good when you can tell specifically when client went 'but how will they know we sell XYZ'

The worst one for me are the kid-size packs of Haribo Giant Strawbs. They're not called "Mini Strawbs" they're called "Giant Strawbs gone Mini" someone definitely piped up in that meeting 🤦🏻

As someone who worked in advertising for years, I can confirm, that is exactly what happens when clients meddle.
