I felt like I found the golden ticket!

While back in Minnesota, I was able to spend an afternoon at Fast Horse Inc., a boutique marketing agency in Minneapolis. This place is fantastic. Workspace: open. Comfy chairs, recliners, tables, bowls of candy, cupcakes, large windows (formerly garage doors). Everything tailored for open communication. People: awesome. Hard-working and hilarious, dedicated and laid-back. They got their work done, but had a great time doing it.

They even let me write a blog post for them. Naturally, I wrote about Lady GaGa. Head over to the Idea Peepshow and check it out!

I’d like to thank George Fiddler for allowing me to shadow him, taking me out to lunch, and showing me the ropes. I’d also like thank Fast Horse President, Jorg Pierach, for taking some time to sit down and talk with me about his agency and the industry as a whole. Finally, I’d like to thank the entire Fast Horse crew for a memorable experience. I truly did feel like I was Charlie touring the Charlie Factory. Minus oompa-loompas.
