Sus Finch
Strategist at Propellernet
Sus demanded I interview her so she could set the record straight about her issue with Clifford the Big Red Dog.
Aside from her Clifford controversy, Sus is a good soul and a mean strategist (mean in the good way, as in she gets sh*t done.).
Q. Sus, can I call you Sus? Sus, who are you and why are you important?
“Sus, Big Suze, Suzie, Suzy Q – I get it all. I’m a Strategist at digital marketing agency Propellernet, working across audience and content strategies.”
Q. Big Suze, what was the funniest moment you experienced at work?
“I work with some of the most quick-witted and entertaining people I’ve ever met and find myself giggling every day. I used to keep a list of the funny moments that happened in the office, and I’ve lost track at this point. We have a Propellernet quotes board where we immortalise the most absurd exchanges to be overheard.”
Q. Love the ideas of a quotes board. Write 2 straplines that sell sunglasses to dinosaurs.
- Keep an eye on the sky before you die!
- Tiny tints for t-rexes – because safety’s never extinct 😎
Q. If only your ads had been around to save them. What does strategist rhyme with?
“Optimistic nihilist.”
Q. You’re trapped on an island and you can only bring one of these three legends: James Blunt, James Morrison or James Milner, who will it be?
“I’m bringing Blunt with me – he can provide comedy relief and serenade me with tunes from the All The Lost Souls which happens to be one of my guilty pleasure albums.”
Q. Right, Clifford the Big Red Dog, Scooby-Doo and the dog from Blue Peter all need adopting, but your heart only has room for one. Who are you taking home and why?
“Scooby-Doo all the way. We would have a riot eating Scooby snacks, pranking each other and fighting crime. My mate even told me I was dressed like Shaggy the other day. Cuddles with Clifford would be insanely comforting, but what does that dog eat? Entire horses? Not in this economy, Connor!”
Q. Clifford would never eat a horse. Anyway, write a haiku about a goose that was blind, but now can see.
“Blind goose waddles on,
Squinting, life is quite the blur,
Now he sees, oh honk!”
