“Industry Legend” Helen Lin, Chief Digital Officer of Publicis, giving a detailed explanation of why Publicis acquired Influential recently. Later in the session, was so proud of her when she dropped this knowledge bomb: “ #creators can’t be a line item on the plan.” Explaining that creators need to be fully integrated into the creative process starting with the briefing. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 We pioneered this at BofA many years ago and, at that time, some of Helen’s former colleagues weren’t as enthusiastic about this practice as she clearly is. I guess that’s why they’re her former colleagues and she is on a stage at #AWNewYork24. #CreatorEconomy #Creative #Creators

You can’t fight progress (or city hall) love seeing the bigger players leaning into creators. They are not a line item - they should be a strategy. Thank you for sharing Lou Paskalis!
