It’s taken a little while for me to compile this short list of weird thing we say. Maybe we’ve just been more ‘normal’ these last couple of months…

• Boots are the hats of legs.
• Look at that bird, flying free through the sky. I envy that bird…
• Holy Binders!
• People like to be cupped.
• Someone can smell my gummy wrapper if they want.
• When I hear that sound, it makes me want to put knives in my head.
• Sometimes, I wish I could take my nose off and soak it in water.

Candy Chang painted the side of an abandoned house in her New Orleans neighborhood with chalkboard paint. Over that she stenciled “Before I die I want to _” 80 times and left chalk for people to use. The neighborhood did the rest.

At The Cyphers Agency we decided to conduct this little experiment ourselves. A sheet was placed on the bulletin board and our wildest of hopes, dreams and aspirations were released. Here are some of the highlights.

Before I die I want to…

• …start a non-profit.
• …see a lot more of the world and experience more culture than I already have.
• …crush my enemies, see them drive before me and hear the lamentations of their women.
• …build my own house.
• …get rich and buy millions of shoes.
• …raise my children to be happy adults!
• …float in space.

What do you want to do before you die?

Every brand dreams of becoming a brand powerhouse. Most will never achieve it because along with vision and determination you need talent. When you have talent, skill automatically comes with the gift. However, being skilled at something doesn’t mean you have talent. Talent is about having people who turn ordinary into something extraordinary.

In the advertising business, talent is about the people who create a big idea and then execute it in a way that resonates so loudly that you can’t get it out of your mind. At The Cyphers Agency, we hunt and recruit the best talent that money can buy. We make sure they are happy and well taken care of. We think of it as a benefit to our customers. After all, your advertising dollars without talent are worthless. Our success is your success. It takes talented people to run your business. It takes talented people to market your business. Use this advice in every business decision you make.

See!? We hire the most talented!
