For reasons you will understand, I can’t go into the details of the landmark solution that was engineered for McDonald’s with Omnicom. It also won’t surprise you that some of the peanut gallery commentary and assumptions were incorrect. But what I can talk about is what I think the industry can learn from the recent “big” pitches.
