When I was a junior copywriter, I remember the account executive assigned me to a holiday card in June. Our conversation went like this:
Me: Oh, so we send out a Happy 4th of July card to our clients?
AE: No, this is for the Holiday Card we send out at the end of the year.
ME: That’s 6 months from now!?!
AE: It will be the hardest project you ever work on.
Ever since, I love to concept on Holiday Cards that we send out to our partners, friends and families.
