Welcome to Pow Zot! This is the first entry so it’s probably going to be longer than most, just fair warning. A few stray thoughts before I get into the mission statement-esq part of the post: 1) Please let me know what you think about any and all of this. Conversation is one of the biggest reasons I started this. 2) If the page design changes slightly it’s because I’m still tweaking it, trying to bend Movable Type to my design will What is Pow Zot!? Quite simply it’s yet another advertising blog (yeah, quite a USP huh?). Like the graphic says, it’s “Advertising by the Millennial Generation”. Why? Well because (at least for now, it’s changed a few times in the last few years) I fall into the Millennial generation and I am an Advertising Designer (no, that’s not my official title, but it’s the most accurate description of what I do.) I’m fascinated by advertising. I love it. I know it’s weird, but I do. Strategy, copywriting, art direction, all of it is so fun! I decided to start Pow Zot! to start some conversations about marketing/advertising/communications on the internet and in the “digital age” as well as to share my thoughts and insights on the industry, as a “Millennial”. I’m working on the first real post, but I’m so exited to get the template working and the site running that I wanted to get something up. So please, feel free drop me a comment with your thoughts on the design, future direction of the blog, or whatever. I’m excited about jumping in. Until the next post.
Ok. Down to the meat of it.
