Reinventing the Agency Model with PRVN
Manage episode 489917008 series 2818535
In this episode of Let's Talk, Coach Che Marville sits down with Founders Jay Bertram and Rich Cooper, the founders of PRVN (https://prvn.ca}/, a bold, stripped-down creative agency designed to harness senior talent without the bloat typically found in traditional models. Together, they unpack what's broken in advertising, why agencies have lost their spark, and how PRVN is building a new framework rooted in speed, collaboration, and authentic human connection.
They delve into how AI fits in (and where it doesn't), why diversity isn't just a matter of optics, and how midlife professionals can reclaim their power in an industry obsessed with youth.
This is a conversation about reinvention, resilience, and absolute creative freedom.
- PRVN is built on proven talent creatives with insight, depth, and the ability to deliver under pressure.
- The traditional agency model is obsolete, often acting more as a barrier than a bridge to clients.
- Their creative sprint process is inspired by Saturday Night Live: fast, disciplined, collaborative, and effective.
- Clients don't just want ideas. They want alignment, engagement, and results.
- AI is a tool, not a replacement. The human creative mind is still the most valuable asset.
- Diversity of experience fuels innovation, not just representation but lived insight.
- Midlife isn't a dead end. It's the prime time to pivot and own your value.
