Hiring a CCO is exceptionally expensive. Hiring two would seem even more so. Do they cut a normal CCOs salary in half, or do they pay a fraction of what they would to one individual?

I’ve always wondered about this.

Congrats M&A. Sad that some had to jump on here and rain on your parade

They actually had quite a bit to do with this concept and shaping it. Big loss for M&C.

Big clients are leaving big agencies in droves. Adding a layer of CCO to an agency with less bodies to do the work is an interesting move. Time will obviously tell eventually.

It wasn’t his idea and these guys had a lot more to do with it than he did.

Not to mention that people want to work and for them. This could be the beginning of something super special at Dentsu Creative!

Dentsu has a few solid clients but there’s a lot of people with ECD or CCO titles on those zoom calls now. Assuming a few will go there’ll still be a lot
