Are there women allowed on that floor?
Worked for Singo.
“Uncomplicated” Is that a bit like dumb?
Sounds like it’s in the actual BWM building. Is ‘Bloke’ a conflict agency by any chance?
“..deceptively sexist idea”
Jeepers, you guys have guts.
“Uncomplicated” – you might want to think about that. We only make things more complicated so we can charge big bucks.
Maaaaate!
What year is it? is Bob Hawke still PM? Are women even allowed to work?
Because customers are all so straight forward and simple too
deceptively simple looking partners – nice idea though. I hope they only work with man-brands.
They just named it that so they’d get their fair share of knockers … boom tish!
Stay tuned for the announcement of my new agency…”Vagina” where each client brief will undergo a planning process called “gestation” which will conclude in the birth of all new ideas that everyone will stand around and coo at.
The business cards are going to be amazing. Right????
Congratulations on taking the big step gents! I wonder how many of the nameless knockers above have had the balls to do the same? More support for brave people within our own industry can only help us all right?
That’s freaking horrendous. Who are these people? Bloke? That’s embarressing for men and women.
Best of luck blokes. You deserve great success.
Hope it goes better than my start up – Latte Sipping Dandies
Stand by for my new agency launch – “Cock”. It will start off slow, building to a massive release of creative ideas before finally deflating and shrivelled up, a shadow of its former glory.
Some of the best creatives in the industry today.
Best of luck Gents.
is this a joke?
and here’s me thinking it was just a simple mash up of Bloore and Ororke.
I understood that Rocky. Still doesn’t excuse the sexist positioning. And if they didn’t get that then they weren’t thinking hard enough. And people wonder why women talk about discrimination and sexism in this industry. A lot of it is from ‘blokes’ who don’t think through to how their ‘clever idea’ will come across to people who know that language and semantics are important components of communication.
seriously – they call their agency ‘bloke’ and that’s somehow sexist and degrading towards women? get a grip.
good luck guys – don’t let all the boring old haters complicate your positioning!
Just started an agency called DORKS. Where’s my story?
