Well done Steve.
Good on you Steve and all the best!
There’s a lesson here somewhere, isn’t there…

Congrats Steve.
Mitch’s hair was radder.
I love it when things come full circle. This is the best news from Perth I’ve heard in ages. Hugs all round!
Good timing by all
Steve,
I have never met you but from a fellow creative this is awsome news.
Good for you, and well done to Rare for opening this door.
Great news.
Well done Steve and Brett. Steve is a great writer and top bloke. All the best, Mark Z
Great news indeed.
Good on you Rare. Now hopefully there will be some clients that’ll let Steve flex his wings a bit.
Congrats Rare for making such an astute appointment. Fly high Steve.
Two of the nicest guys in the business! Well done to both of you!
Good on you Steve and Brett.
Your talents were wasted on Link Steve. They don’t know what they’ve lost and to put it bluntly, never knew what they had.
Onwards and upwards Fellas.
Good luck Steve.

8.38 Mitch who?
Linc’s loss is Rare’s gain, that’s great news Steve. Silly silly Linc!
You’re talented AND nice so hopefully your integrity and your talent get the chance to shine now and that Rare’s clients manage to reep the benefits! I’ve been fortunate to work with you and you have nothing but respect from me.
All the best Steve!!
This is excellent news! Congratulations Steve!
Weird staff appointments and decisions have been made at Linc. Making Steve redundant was a mistake. Who will do ‘original’ creative work now?

Rowie, you should have logged on as ‘Rowie’ seeing that you share the same name as Mr Brown.
It’s about time you left that place. All the best. (Boy, if only those walls could talk!!!)
Can’t anybody find anything negative to say??? I come here for the back biting and snippiness. Surely there must be a cloud among all this silver lining?
I did write something negative, about the ‘remaining’ joint creative director at Linc, but it was edited by Campaign Brief. What a shame.
Well done Steve. The crap you went through at Linc has resulted in a positive outcome for you and Rare Creative Thinking.
A couple of things I’d like to say.
First, thanks for all the nice things that have been said. I’m humbled. Mind you, Brett and I are somewhat peeved about our ‘nice as pie’ reputations and will attempt to rectify that this weekend by doing a little bag snatching outside a retirement home.
Second, there are some really nice people at Linc so let’s not get nasty.
Cheers.
I hear that the ‘original’ creative work will get done by the same person that was doing the original creative work previously.
Looks like Steve + Crew have learnt how to blog with some of these comments. Great SEO and Social Marketing techniques. Well done. Hopefully google will pick up some of those juicy keywords.
Congratulations Steve and RARE you guys rock! A lovely bunch 🙂
