One day, when I have advertising out of my system, I want to be Prime Minister of Australia.
Quote by -David Droga
I believe in creating ideas that consumers actually want to engage in, creating movements with our thinking and not bombarding them into submission.
Quote by -David Droga
It seems like not a lot of the world's issues can be solved by big government. But they can be solved by brands, and brands putting their best foot forward need advertising.
Quote by -David Droga
The qualities I look for in planners or creatives is very much the same thing. Beyond the givens of talent and work ethic, I really look for people who are inspired by the everyday, people who are not afraid of the obvious and are able to reinterpret it into a creative and interesting manner.
Quote by -David Droga
To be honest, while every market is very different, we are all still fundamentally moved and inspired by similar human truths - love, fear, belonging, desire, and so on.
Quote by -David Droga
Over the years, advertising had become very lazy, very visual. Visuals are important, yes, but as a part of the story.
Quote by -David Droga
Nothing connects with people like humanity. That doesn't mean you have to tell slice-of-life stories all the time. But you know, with so many options in technology, the consumer's not really that interested in advertising... They are interested in great stories. That transcends any medium.
Quote by -David Droga
When I first made some comment when we launched that part of our purpose was to do stuff that has social ripples, lots of people said it was such a glib thing to say. I actually believe that.
Quote by -David Droga
Just because you can do something, it doesn't mean you need to - restraint is something I admire.
Quote by -David Droga
If you can allow yourself to do more good with your creativity by being successful, then that's a great thing.
Quote by -David Droga
It's not about being the biggest or the place with the most pins in a map. We want to be the most influential. We talk about trying to build the most influential agency in the world.
Quote by -David Droga
I'm kind of like both of them: My mother grew up wanting to save the world, and my father grew up wanting to rule the world.
Quote by -David Droga
Long before social media existed, the proto-tweets of advertising had penetrated American popular culture: 'A mind is a terrible thing to waste.' 'Where's the beef?' 'A diamond is forever.' 'Think different.' You'd be hard pressed to find a writer's craft that has more directly influenced the vernacular.
Quote by -David Droga
People who want to express themselves effectively can learn a lot from the hard-won concision of the copywriter.
Quote by -David Droga
Copywriters on Madison Avenue constantly grapple with the question of where their work sits on the totem pole of 'real' writing.
Quote by -David Droga
Generosity is as much showing your vulnerability as it is your passion for something.
Quote by -David Droga
We're communicators, we're problem solvers, and we're lateral thinkers, and there's nothing that can't be improved with that. The world needs us, and we want to be needed.
Quote by -David Droga
Our ambitions are not limited to quarterly results. Our ambitions are linked to a belief in what we do. And one of the definite privileges of success is being able to see beyond yourself.
Quote by -David Droga
There are few forces for good as extensive and important as the United Nations. Being able to work with them and other global aid organisations for World Humanitarian Day is a humbling and extraordinary opportunity.
Quote by -David Droga
My mother had to label all our clothing. As the youngest boy, all my tags read Droga5.
Quote by -David Droga
There are certain people throughout my career I've earmarked as smart people I would like to work with. And I'm not just talking about advertising people.
Quote by -David Droga
The ingredients for great advertising haven't changed since the 'Mad Men' era: Brands win if their advertising is relevant and people like it.
Quote by -David Droga
It's not rocket science: The best ads tell great stories. They look and feel like the content you're already consuming. They invite you in. They make you laugh. They teach you something. They also sell.
Quote by -David Droga
If you don't have reservations, you're a fool. You can't go blind into something.
Quote by -David Droga
Australians are gypsies by nature. I've been fortunate enough to experience different regions of the world.
Quote by -David Droga
You hire well and just make sure you have enough runway for everyone to grow in the company's success. It creates loyalty and opportunity, really.
Quote by -David Droga
A lot of people think technology is a solution, but it's really just a canvas for your work. It can make good things amazing and bad things terrible. Facebook allows you to have access to mass audience really quickly if you do creative really well.
Quote by -David Droga
Under Armour is not about the Left or the Right. It's about moving forward together.
Quote by -David Droga
If we can find our storytelling in more complimentary ways with the technology, I think it's just going to get better and better.
Quote by -David Droga
I was in a bank meeting in London once that was so torturous, I had a flash of inspiration for another client.
Quote by -David Droga
We're in the business of influence. And if we're going to be in partnership with anybody, I want it to be with people who have amazing access and influence.
Quote by -David Droga
The agency is who it is because of many, many, many chapters that needed to happen.
