I’ve mentioned that I got a tough client who’s had a not so
great relationship with the agency and I along with DQ were asked to change
that. That was our challenge. I've mentioned it here.
We worked on a big campaign for them, for which I voiced the
radio commercial, and for this I’m being bugged big time…. And they loved it, the
client that is.
While being lost in a busy day of work, when I felt like I
was falling into a shitty mood, it suddenly brightened.
For the first time ever, the client sent a cake from Hilton
addressing it to me and my team.
I couldn’t believe it at first, so was seated trying to
figure it out… and then went out to meet the client who physically made an
effort to come and deliver the cake to me with a lovely note.
I can’t believe it. I didn’t think I made such a difference
along with my team ofcourse. It just felt awesome…. I never thought things
would turn around so soon either…
Bosses are pleased and impressed and are congratulating me… the
team ensured that the cake was finished within a time span on 3 mins of having
cut it into pieces…
I’m told one boss is highly jealous coz it was addressed to
me….. :-)
I’m reminded that good things happen…. And hard work pays
off….
I’m happy for the moment…. And feeling appreciated.
Oh what a feeling!
I’ve received cake before, but facing a challenge like this
one and getting one so fast, is a first.
Hi five! Well done. This is where I get to jiggle around and scream "I TOLD YOU SO". The next time you vex and whine about how it's impossible to please the client, I am going to make your life miserable.
