An Insightful and Emotional Conversation with Creative Legend Hadji Williams

Thu, 16 Nov 2023 02:04:05 GMT

We're back this with another episode of More Than A Title, with special guest Hadji Williams. Hadji is a copywriter that has been in the ad game for over two decades. He's worked agencies, big and small on all coasts and then some. Over the years I've hit nearly every audience on every platform there is. If you drink it, eat, drive it, wear it, use it in your house he's sold it. Names he's touched include AT&T, Aleve, Absolut, Charter Communications, The Cleveland Clinic, Coca-Cola, Ford Motors, GlaxoSmithKline, Infiniti, Lowe's Home Improvement, Mercedes Benz, Nissan, Radio Shack, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame + Museum, and Wm, Wrigley Jr. Co. He's from Chicago's West + South sides- by way of Mississippi parents--by way of "The Great Migration" (a path many schools are ashamed to speak on). One day a market research veteran turned Columbia professor told him that advertising"absolutely paid a lot more than 5-bucks an hour." So, he put my graff-writing and rhyme-slinging on the backburner and dove head-first into advertising courses. He landed his first BIG agency gig at the ripe old age of 22. What came next was a 25-yearlong tsunami of brainstorms, wordsmithing, day- drinking, night-owling, weekend-blurring, airport-hopping, brand-building, award winning, award-losing, freelancing, adjunct professoring, commercial producing, barrier breaking, moneymaking, money-losing, culture-mixing, culture-shifting and constant craft-refining, second guessing, job-hopping, industry shifting, industry imploding, career-changing, DEl-pushing, NDA-covering, life-altering decisions and insights that should be passed on to the next generation before I'm out. Tune in Tuesday to hear this brother's remarkable journey! Catch us on MTAT Youtube, Linkedin and Facebook. Also will be streaming on the Alive Podcast Network App. #morethanatitle #podcast

Over the last decade, Marcus has helped blue-chip brands (like McDonalds, Google, AB-InBev) navigate the challenges of digital transformation to create contagious marketing ideas that extend across both the online and offline worlds of social.

Throughout his career, Marcus has been acknowledged for his strategic and creative contributions as an advertiser (Advertising Ages 40 Under 40 recipient, Clio award winner) where he launched such notable campaigns as Cliff Paul for State Farm, the Made In America Music Festival for Budweiser, Hello Brooklyn for the Brooklyn Nets, and the Eggo + Netflixs Stranger Things conquest.

Marcus has always been a square peg in a round hole. Growing up as a black kid in Detroit who swam competitively, studied engineering, spent his summers at band camp, and loved the Monkees as much as he loved A Tribe Called Quest.

The result of this experience taught him how to observe cultural codes and develop an empathic muscle. His years of training and work experience have since strengthened these innate abilities into an actionable practice that allows him to translate culture for brands and translate brands for culture.

I've been a fan and follower of Dr. Collins for quite some time and it's an honor to have him share his story with us because he is a shining example of a person who is More Than A Title!
