A Traveling We Go

Today, David and I are going to visit a client.

Road trip. Well, maybe not exactly.

This visit is to work toward a preparing a new proposal for a video project they would like to complete. We’ve already submitted one proposal, but it was on a project they decided not to pursue at this time. This particular method is not typical. Traditionally, we have a concept hammered out and a project already decided before moving toward some sort of working relationship with a client.

But on occasion, we have companies who are so confident in the services we provide, that they are ready to sign on when it’s still a loose concept.

It’s also not often that we go on in-person client visits. For the most part, it’s preferred that the client come to us. This makes the most sense really, as it allows them the chance to see our audio recording studio, video production studio, meet all of the staff from writers to animators to graphic designers, to see the current programming work on large monitors in our main area, and just to get a general feel for DDA.

With no sales people, or other point people common in other marketing and advertising agencies, in-person meetings at other people’s facilities are also difficult for us to accommodate. At DDA, everyone has a job to do at all times, and taking time away means taking time away from a current project.
