6650: Ads Made Fast—No Starch.


This actual job listing demonstrates the deterioration of advertising as we know it. Who needs in-house studios or dedicated creative staffs? Send out an email by noon, and get your completed files back the next day. The industry has been searching for a new business model—and it looks like we’ll be adopting the one used by dry cleaners.

Hello Creative Circle! Here’s a new opportunity for you to check out.

Position: TODAY – Offsite conceptual designer
Location: Other Areas
Status: Freelance
Estimated Duration: 6 hours
Starts: TODAY – Start around 11:30-noon
Rate: $27-$30/hr. offsite

Job Description:
Our Client is a prepaid wireless provider who has bought transit media space and has to turn around concepts for bus and train ads.

This Client has copy and some basic ideas and will be able to hand off the project specs virtually around noon.

In turn, he is looking for a designer who is excited to concept highly visible ads that will run throughout Chicagoland.

If you are conceptual, able to execute, a good offsite communicator and can turn ideas around in a short period of time, these files are due tomorrow!

If you feel you are qualified for this position please send your resume (and samples if applicable).

Best wishes!

Better still, the copy is provided for you—with ideas.

How can you beat that?
