    Reminds of a story from a real Mad Man. Some clients would be shown the best effort, because those people understood the business and could appreciate how it would play.

    Others would get three choices, the one they wanted to sell, and two low effort pieces for them to reject. Rejecting the bad ones made the clients feel savvy and in control.

    Donnie was shown three videos and ‘picked’ the best one.

    I’d bet money on that.
