On Friday, October 14, GV Ad Club will be spending the day touring advertising agencies in Holland. On our day trip, we will be making stops at Boileau & Co., Next Creative Co., and 2 Fish Company. We will also be having lunch at City Deli, a delicious local eats spot!
Visiting advertising agencies can be very beneficial to students interested in marketing, advertising, communications, design, and production. For students who are unsure of what roles make up an agency, it’s a good way to get a taste of different careers and how an office setting might function. It’s also a great opportunity to meet professionals in the area, learn about different agencies (potential workplaces!), and network. Plus, spend time outside of the classroom with fellow students interested in the field!
Here’s a little info about each agency we are touring:
