Code of Ethics: I have been brought up in advertising the "Ogilvy" way; and I still respect and honour their principles in communication and business. I would always deliver on agreed deadlines; and try to go the extra mile.
I expect the client to work with me as a team; working for one common objective. Therefore, I also share my work-in-progress; in order to save time and avoid unnecessary delays and miscommunication. Clients could expect total transparency and honesty, and I expect that in return too.
