Dear Diary…
Just when you think things couldn’t get any worse, Eric “little monkey” Stein and his SK+G HACK PACK show you the deepest bowels of suck. Not sure who actually came up with this, but I have never been more embarrassed for so many. GET ME OUT OF HERE!
Last week, they went around filming employees and management and produced a pleading video to Mandalay Bay to allow us into the pitch. Then someone decided that it would be a “killer” idea to put it up on You Tube.
SK+G’s management definitely needs to stay away from the lens side of a camera.
The video was pulled down within 24 hours and SK+G went from being the worst agency in Las Vegas to the laughingstock of Las Vegas.

This weak at SK+G?
Dear Diary...
Get me out of here... in a desperate attempt to boost morale (or hide the fact we're sinking), the SVP puts out an email, it goes like this...
---------------------------------
Good morning. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday. This is the first “This Week at SK+G” email – a quick weekly update to advise everyone about major happenings at the shop.
New Business: We are incredibly active on the new business front heading into 2008. We have responded to RFPs to retain the MGM MIRAGE Corporate account and to win the Union Park business. We made it to the second round for both of these and will be doing oral presentations at the end of this week for Union Park and on December 5 for MGM MIRAGE.
This week we are submitting RFP responses for both The Monte Carlo Resort & Casino and Mandalay Bay.
We have just recently successfully secured the Trump International Hotel & Tower account (PR), Montage Beverly Hills account as well as the Montage Residences. In addition, we’re sending a services contract to the Edward Thomas Companies, owners of Shutters, Casa Del Mar (both resorts on the beach in Santa Monica) and Canary (in Santa Barbara).
Couple all that action with some big launches for Lumiere, Palms Place, Planet Hollywood and The Water Club, and you can see that we’re heading into the new year with all pistons firing.
Holiday Party: Reminder that our annual party will be Thursday, December 13. Invitation to follow this week.
Your input: If you have an important announcement to share, please let me know by end of day Friday for the Monday “TW @ SK+G” email.

SK+G - Runnin' for the door...
Dear Diary...
More "goings away"... Head of our internal retouching studio quit (he's been here since the beginning) as well as 5 AE's, 2 Art Directors and a few designers.
Unbelievable...
Accounts leaving, no new ones coming in, but the same dreck being sold over and over again...
