You spent years working in an advertising or media agency as a client director.... You weren't just good at your job, you were great.

You dedicated yourself, you worked late nights, you missed birthdays and anniversaries, you landed big clients, you built empires for other people. You loved every minute. The thrill of landing that one pitch for the team. The feeling when the contract was signed.

You refrained from starting that company you always dreamed of starting. You have kids, a mortgage... The time wasn't right. You came close a few times to making the leap, but you stopped yourself. Maybe it was fear...

Maybe, but you kept working. You sacrificed your time, energy, and dedicated yourself even more. You did well... You rose amongst the ranks. You received your bonuses, they might have given you a company car. Every few years, you got some recognition. A few pats on your head, a new shiny title, more responsibility, more money. Your entire life focus and purpose was to grow something you had no ownership in, but you were "family", so it was ok,

They never made you partner. They overlooked you every time.

There were ups and downs in the market, you rode the waves. You were fired, hired, and fired again - change was constant. You got older, you started feeling safe.

But out of the blue. You're fired again. Made "redundant" This time it's different. You see it... The industry has changed. Remote work, outsourcing, insourcing, AI... Lower budgets. Hordes of younger and talented candidates willing to work for cheap all fighting and screaming "Pick me".

You were optimistic at first, but time is taking it's toll.

You've applied to jobs, so many jobs... No replies... No meetings.

Ghosted by an industry you helped shape, because they consider you too old.

That ends now.

GORILLA was a loud, disruptive, and controversial creative agency. We were very active from 2017–2021, but since Covid, the agency has been on the back burner. We won 80 awards for our work. We had hundreds of millions of views. We were covered by countless media. We were able to build a brand like no other. After years of being dormant GORILLA is ready to make a come back.
