Wanted to share some great advice for copywriters, from "Jancy.":

"Today the job calls for far greater ability than writing headlines. You will need a much deeper understanding of how to communicate with people who don’t want to get your message, and who have the ability to dodge it with ease. The copywriter who will be hired understands a complicated landscape and how to work in many channels, from endless online spaces to in-store and beyond. A great writer is a great problem-solver, who can look at a client challenge and respond with ideas that may not be copy-driven. Maybe the answer is a new product, or an event."

'Jancy' is Janet Kestin and Nancy Vonk, Co-Founders of Swim, a unique “creative leadership training lab for advertising creatives and marketers.” Prior to Swim, Jancy was globally renowned as the Co-Chief Creative Officers of Ogilvy & Mather Toronto, a position they held for thirteen of the twenty years they were a creative duo at the agency. Over the years they've racked up Cannes Lions, Clios, One Show pencils and CA credits, and have lead their shop to two Cannes Lions Grand Prix and a Grand Clio. They've judged CA, Cannes, D&AD, the One Show, the Clios and other prestigious award shows. Creativity named them two of the top 50 creative people of 2008.
