WHY MEDIA PLACEMENT IS SO IMPORTANT
22 Jul 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
Our non-ex-pat readers on the continent and beyond may well appreciate a translation. The headline for the article to the top-left of the meat advert is to do with a worker who died after falling into a “meat machine.” Nice. Very mellow. Hey!

I’ve been approached by a food and beverages company to create a range of Seth Rotherham shaped chocolates, but I told them it wasn’t really my vibe. I felt it would be “jumping the gun” a bit to get chocolate Seths before having an action figure on the shelves. There’s kind of an order to […]
