companies including American Express, BAT, BP, Cisco, Coke, DuPont, Ford, Gillette,

The quality of our network is based on the strength of our international network, our
local strength and depth across all communication disciplines, our culture of
collaboration and our people.
360 Degree Brand Stewardship
As Brand Stewards, the agency works to leverage the brands of its multinational
clients by combining local know-how with a worldwide network, creating powerful

campaigns that address local market needs while still reinforcing the same universal
brand identity. The hallmark of the agency's brand-building capabilities is 360 Degree
Brand Stewardship, a holistic look at communications, using what is necessary from
each discipline to build a brand.
We believe our role as 360 Degree Brand Stewards is this: Creating attention-getting
messages that make a promise consistent and true to the brand's image and identity.
And guiding actions, both big and small, that deliver on that brand promise. To every
audience that brand has. At every brand intersection point. At all times.
KNOWLADGE ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT WORKET IN.

Creative Department Jobs within an Advertising Agency - The creative department is
responsible for brainstorming, planning and combining ideas to create the actual
advertisements.
Creative Director: is responsible for overseeing and managing the overall

responsibilities of the creative department. Usually an experienced person with
a creative bend of mind
Copywriter/ Junior Copywriter: can also be called as a wordsmith. Generally a

person having the ability to create magic with innovative use of words is called
a copywriter. The copywriter is responsible for transforming ideas into words,
writing the body copy for advertisements etc.
Art Director: is an artist with strong visualization & drawing skills. This is the
person who oversees the work of graphic artists. In some smaller agencies, the
Art Director takes the complete responsibility of designing and converting ideas
into awe-inspiring visuals within an ad - from ad layouts, to storyboarding and
compilations.
LIMITATIONS AND THREATS
The competition in the advertising field is increasing and the threat is

increasing with the creative employees of leading ad agencies coming out and
starting their own.
Talent erosion which lead to creative employees moving to other sectors like IT,
etc.
Vendors an boutique agencies offering adhoc and short term services and one
of jobs to clients
Thereby making the clients less dependent and wanting to go for large
agencies/ long term contract.
Learning experience
gained
The very purpose of internship was fulfilled to the maximum, keeping in

mind the limitation of time. The learning experience began right from
the first day.
My primary objective of learning was to get practical exposure to the
advertising industry and to observe and learn how an ad agency works.
With regard to this, I learnt that an ad agency follows a workflow
process, which can be attributed to any ad agency in general. The
process begins with the ad agency getting a Marketing Brief from the
client in terms of the positioning required, the purpose of the
advertising and the facts to be highlighted in the ads. This brief is taken
by the client servicing department and is passed on to the creative
department, and this is known as the Creative Brief. The creative
department, which composes of the Art and the copywriting department
starts visualising the idea, based on the brief. In fact, the idea can
come from any department, as long as it is creative and effective. The
planning department meanwhile starts researching the concerned
market and the clients competitors and provides useful inputs to the
creative department. The finished ad copy is then shown to the client
who accepts/ rejects or even suggests changes, post to which it is
printed or developed into a campaign.
RECOMMENDATION
Increase in the mediums and options of communication ( Mobile phones,

internet, blogs, networking websites)
Increasing advertising from new sectors and types of companies/ organizations

or individuals ( electoral advertising, social causes, personal, property
advertising, etc)
Global recognition and appreciation to Indian agencies which allow them to go

global and get international client
CONCLUSION
My project topic encouraged to design/write the copy for different
clients.The internship was an outstanding learning experience, with
great learning, practical exposure and an opportunity of self-analysis. I
would like to conclude by saying that I hope the internship learning will
act as a bridge to land into the abode of creative opportunities, the
Advertising industry.
