Marcus Brown is a bloody top guy.
Sure he’s got big eyes, crazy hair and an unnatural love for ‘Hello Kitty’ … plus he lives in Krautland … but he is incredibly smart, gotexperience, knows all about web 2.0 and is very much intune with people, brands and creativity.
He’s been talking to a bunch of advertising types for a while and yet, for some reason, no agency has snapped him up.
Is it because he originates from Southampton? Is it because of the iPOD Singing? Is it because he doesn’t avoid asking the hard questions? Is it because he doesn’t have friends called Tarquin?
WELL SURELY THAT’S EXACTLY WHY YOU SHOULD HIRE HIM!
Anyway we decided to create this on-line petition in the hope that certain people in Adland will see many others think he is a smart guy … and maybe, just maybe, give him a chance to blossom and shine in their organisation.
He knows nothing about this … and is probably mortified about it … but we don’t care, we need the karma points, so come on … sign up to get him signed up!
Oh, and if you wonder why the people behind this site don’t give him a gig … it’s because we’re not in Krautland and we have enough iPOD singers in our place already!

If my bosses like you, I like you. Yes, I am a suit.
April 2, 2008 at 10:17 am |
He is a lot smarter than he looks, though he does somewhat resemble a boffin so that can only be a good thing can’t it?
April 2, 2008 at 11:47 am |
He’s smarter than Billy and he has a job in advertising.
April 3, 2008 at 10:04 am |
I happily support this campaign.

Agencies need Marcus and Marcus needs somewhere he can thrive. Hire him
April 4, 2008 at 9:12 am |
Yep
April 4, 2008 at 10:04 am |
I hate blogs but I got told I’d be sacked if I didn’t sign. Don’t know who this Marcus guy is but if my boss likes him, I suppose he must be OK.

April 9, 2008 at 9:55 am |
forza Marcus!!!!!!!!!!!!
April 9, 2008 at 10:07 am |
Marcus is gifted and it says bundles about advertising that somebody hasn’t snapped him up yet. I’m hoping I get a chance to work with him one day.
April 9, 2008 at 11:21 am |
i can see why you wouldn’t want to hire marcus – he’d just prove that your HR manager has been doing a crap job up until now. but do it anyway. go on.

April 9, 2008 at 6:26 pm |
Marcus is a fine fellow of exceptional capabilities.
Now i’m off for some tea…
April 9, 2008 at 7:25 pm |
Can you handle the truth?
April 9, 2008 at 9:41 pm |
Hiring Marcus would be like dipping your company’s balls in chili powder.
April 10, 2008 at 12:02 am |
We need more shiny people in adland. It’s very dark down here.
April 10, 2008 at 10:36 am |
Marcus! Marcus! Marcus! Marcus!
………with pom poms.

hello kitty rocks.
April 10, 2008 at 1:30 pm |
I hereby cast my completely independent vote… GOOOO Marcus!!!
April 10, 2008 at 2:12 pm |
Look at it this way, either you can hire him, or, your competitor might…then you’re screwed… so meet him, today!
Betrachten Sie es auf diese Weise, entweder Sie können ihn anstellen, oder, Ihr Konkurrent konnte… dann Sie werden geschraubt…, also treffen Sie ihn, heute!
April 10, 2008 at 2:23 pm |
Here’s another vote for Marcus! Good luck.
April 11, 2008 at 8:48 am |
I always vote for Marcus. But does he really want to work in an agency? It could be the death of that agency. Or its rebirth. Either way its going to hurt — and that can’t be a bad thing.
July 13, 2009 at 9:36 pm |
marcus is a very intelligent and very creative man. he has done more great online things than any brand or person i know. but it is not just online what he is absolutely great at. he should be assailed with job offers! he is not just talking about things. he passionately realises them!
on top of that, he is a sound and nice guy.
of course, he will get his dream job.
July 14, 2009 at 8:10 pm |
Yaaa, Marcus!
