Or the charismatic client account folks who can shmooze their way into getting the business in the first place?

Find out from advertising agency veteran Jerry Greenfield on Wednesday, September 8th beginning at 5 p.m. “Talk vs. Talent,” presented by the American Advertising Federation–Southwest Florida (AAF-SWFL), explores how the war between agency personalities not only drives us to be our best, but also illuminates why we love this industry so much. Attendees will enjoy an hour of networking followed by a presentation by Mr. Greenfield, who will share his funny, insightful, two-sided trash talk.
