“There are two ways of looking at independent strategic talent: one that is wrong and one that can help us transform the world,” wrote Rocio F. Brusseau, co-founder, and CSO, OVERFLOW - “Indies” Strategist Accelerator, in the new PRODU Opinion column titled “Don't call me a freelancer, call me Indie”.
Brands and agencies "tend to look for freelancers when they are overworked," she explained, but this term - which originated to call a soldier without a flag or a "mercenary" - does not cover this independent strategic talent. For Brusseau, the right way to call this talent is "Indies."
She defines Indies "as the thinkers and creators who decided one day to leave aside the corporate mainstream to exercise their creative freedom of thought" in the areas of marketing, innovation, design, and communications. And she concludes that these are the ones that will really benefit brands and agencies with their independent performance.
