The “Brief” is what you’re gonna do
The “Creative” is how you’re gonna do it
Client has a problem, you are providing a solution based on information gathered.
KEY ELEMENTS: Get all info from client at initial meeting.. In person, via email, or over the phone
10-15 Slides: Google slides, ppt, prezi etc. More slides for more complicated/higher budget clients
Engaging, colorful, eye catching, informative. Sort of a first impression of what your company can offer
Can someone tell me why the budget is important? It’s the difference between creating a 300k social media management campaign and a 20mill 360 campaign. At least get a RANGE!
Can we go crazy or nah?

When done properly, of course!
Must create a win-win situation!
