I don't think you should play into the media planner's hand on this. Be honest, have integrity, and say something meaningful you are working on.

How do you manage multiple tasks and deadlines?
1 Answers↳
I broke down a list of priorities and deadlines, items which could not be addressed until other items earlier were needed to be done, and so on. Having a desk calendar also helps. If you're working with a team make sure there is CLEAR communication about who does what, and if you're a liason in between make sure everybody is clear as to what is required so everyone is on the same page.
