John Condon

I'm John Condon. I'm the Founder and Chief Creative Officer of the Distillery Project.

John Condon started The Distillery Project in early 2012. The Distillery Project is a Chicago-based Advertising Agency dedicated to eliminating the bloat, bureaucracy and crazy overhead that gets in the way of doing great work. It’s about the constant push for a better way of doing things. John Condon began his career as a trainee copywriter at Leo Burnett. He worked his way up to eventually become Chief Creative Officer. During his tenure as CCO, John Condon led Burnett to higher standings in the creative rankings than ever before, while simultaneously winning more awards for advertising effectiveness than any other agency in America.
