Ideation, or coming up with ideas for the campaign, occurs in parallel with (i.e., at the same time as,) the budgeting/contracting work which determines the costs and terms of the relationship. These activities take four and three weeks, respectively. Once ideation is complete, advertising content drafting begins and lasts two weeks. When the budget is set and the ad drafting is complete, the activity to determine the advertising channels can begin. Determining the ad channels takes three weeks. When ad drafting is complete and the advertising channels are determined, two activities can start. First, final campaign collateral can be developed over the next six weeks.

I've been working late almost every night for weeks now, and things aren't slowing down. I considered cancelling or postponing the trip, but it makes more sense for me to go away and come back refreshed. Option 2: By setting you up as the point of contact, I'll make sure that people know who to go to when I'm away. I toyed with handing out my cell number and making myself available for calls, but that seemed like a mistake. This way, the team has leadership they can turn to, and I can still take my vacation. Both sides are covered. Option 3: I'm going to focus on keeping on task and putting things in perspective.
