Create a pitch for a series (for Hulu, Netflix, Peacock TV, etc.) about a marketing detective agency that uses their marketing research skills to solve marketing mysteries. Write 1-2 pages about what kinds of cases your detective agency would accept (or seek), what tools your agency would use, and what specific, tangible benefits you could provide to your clients. Crate a brief story arc for season 1, including the main characters. Your detective agency can be scrupulous in their use of professional ethics or, if you prefer, sinister in their pursuit of money above all else.
