Fun story: Ollie's first day of work was the first time he met Doug. 20 minutes into that Monday morning, he edited a YouTube video interview his client conducted with Doug Kessler. Years later, here we are doing this podcast episode together. Doug talks about his "suit" background in arguably THE marketing agency, Ogilvy & Mather. He left the agency to start his own and never looked back.
