100 pitches, 99 no’s: Why we keep coming back for more

Let’s set the record straight: if we really heard 99 “no’s,” we wouldn’t still be in business. As a media buying and planning agency, what we’ve experienced instead is a learning curve that highlights an unaddressed issue in advertising and marketing.
