LIZH Tomorrow's Talent

The articles have been written in partnership with Campaign and feature as part of their wider A-List editorial. Look out for 3-4 featured individuals per year.

Hardly lacking the experience for it, having set up his own boutique web agency, 64k, in the early days of the internet (when dial-up was cutting edge technology and Mark Zuckerberg just a school boy), and worked for some of the biggest names in advertising, he still believes he’s spent most of his career on the periphery of the industry.

<h3>Gareth Goodall</h3><p>Gareth Goodall began his advertising career in 1999, when he was invited to join the Ogilvy and Mather graduate scheme. It was a great place to start, he says - and along the way, he made some lifelong friends, "survived two Argos Christmases" [the retailer was then an agency client] and helped give birth to Lucky the Dog, the canine face of More Than.

He'd been studying English and American Literature at Manchester University and his future options seemed to be narrowing down to journalism on the one hand or teaching on the other.
