New Service Aims to Rid Agencies From Annoying Vendors

If you work in agency production, you likely hate the endless sales calls from vendors who waste your time selling you a service you don’t want or need at the time. They are kind of the scum of the earth sometimes, right? Oh but wait. When you really, really need to get a quote for that super niche’y idea that freaky creative down the hall came up with, you want every vendor at your beck and call immediately regardless of whether you treated them all like shit yesterday.

A new service called AgencyVendors has just launched to make sure all those vendors are at your beck and call when all those whack job ideas require you to come up with a quote for the meeting that was set up without any regard for how long it would take you to create said quote. Unfortunately, the service is so new there are no actual vendors listed on the site yet so you might want to change your voice mail message to something like “Quit bugging me, freak. Go to AgencyVendors.com and make your pitch there. Don’t call me. I’ll call you.”
