The campaign was ready. The creators were shortlisted. The deck was perfect. "This is exactly what we need," they said after our first call. The energy was infectious – they were nodding along as I explained our influencer strategy, asking smart questions, already envisioning the campaigns. I stayed up late that week. Handpicked 15 creators who perfectly matched their brand values. Built a custom deck with campaign concepts that felt like they were made just for them. I was excited. This felt like the partnership we'd been waiting for. Then the emails stopped coming. No "thanks but no thanks." No explanation. Just... nothing. Sitting in my office that Friday, staring at the unopened proposal, something clicked. We'd been building proposals. We should be building partnerships. Now at IwishMedia, we don't start creating until we know they're truly committed. We qualify the relationship first, align on expectations, then pour our hearts into the work.

Hard disagree. This sounds like you're scared of rejection so you're putting up walls. The best partnerships I've seen started with agencies going above and beyond with spec work. If you can't invest in winning business, how can clients trust you'll invest in their success?

This hits so hard. The ghosting after initial enthusiasm is the worst part of agency life. But honestly, your new approach sounds backwards to me - how do you show value without showing the work first? Seems like you're just adding more barriers between you and potential clients.

Medial's first pitch deck was a two page word document. Here's what it had in total - 1) About the founders. (3-4 lines each with LinkedIN links). 2) About the product and "Why Now?". 3) Our vision in longterm. 4) How'd we utilise the capital.

When we truly understand a client, it reflects in our work. For instance, when a logo project for a supermarket called Starmart came up, many ideas initially came to mind, but they all felt too cliché. To break away from that, we quickly arranged a
