Thanks to a tip from IFIABTWC I discovered E Squared, the sequel to the brilliant e and the e before Christmas, which finds familiar faces from Millar Shanks now working at meerkat360, an agency ‘so cutting edge you slice your finger on the lift button’.

Read it because its fast and funny, but also to reassure yourself that no matter how uncaring/nuts/unprofessional/immoral/illegal your current agency might be at times, it could be so much worse.

PS don’t bother with the website and facebook as they’re mostly bits of the book rehashed as twitter/facebook posts – which feels like a missed opportunity to me…

PPS meerkat360 is an agency without Planners.  They have hairdressers, clowns, musicians and a trained killer on staff, but no Planners.  Is Matt Beaumont (himself an ex copywriter) trying to make a point? :-)
