Do you like this ad? I think it's genius because it: 1. Creates an enemy. A lot of people dislike the idea that you should be plugged in all the time. This ad appeals to them. 2. Differentiates from competition. They're not just saying it looks good and has quality. They're highlighting how their product is different from other options on the market. 3. Stays classy. This isn't an attack. It's a subtle critique. For most brands, that's the right way to do it. That's an effective combination.

What do a Taylor Swift 🎤 feature, a profile of Sam Altman, and a piece about the James Webb telescope have in common? They were all deemed unsafe for brands to advertise against. 🚫 Are you using blunt brand safety tactics like keyword blocking? Advertisers should be clamoring to have ads appear in something like Taylor Swift's Time Person of the Year cover story, not needlessly shunning the story because of a word like "feminism." Just so you know, GumGum's MRC CONTENT-LEVEL accredited brand safety tech, Verity™ knows that the Time article was brand-safe. 😉 https://bit.ly/3QpK5v8

Lessons in advertising from people who have nothing to do with advertising: “People will forget your words. People will forget your actions. But people will never forget how you made them feel.” Maya Angelou As humans, we are wired to seek out emotions. That's why we love music, art, movies, sports... And that’s why we love certain brands too. It’s not what these brands say or do; it’s how they make us feel. The brands that resonate the most are those that connect with us on an emotional level. And creativity is the most powerful tool we have to build those connections. Before deciding how a brand should talk, look, or act, find out how do you want people to feel about this brand? Then, focus all your efforts on sparking that emotion. When judging creative work, don't just use your brain—use your heart, your skin, and your gut. If you don’t feel anything when it’s presented to you, others won’t feel anything when they experience it. When done right, and with consistency, brands can own emotions: Dove=Confidence; Volvo=Safe; Airbnb=Belonging. A brand that doesn’t evoke any feeling is a brand that will be forgotten. #creativity #advertising #marketing #brands #keynotespeaker #speaker

Surely the point of an ad is to get as many eyes on it as possible, and elicit a reaction from those eyes. Do I like the ad? Who cares. Have I watched it. Yes. Multiple times. On LinkedIn. Shared by tens of my peers in the creative industry. Each of their posts have a thread of comments. It’s a metaphor. It’s a symbol of the death of the creative industry. It’s a smack in the face for decades of genius. It’s mis-placed. It should never have been signed off. It makes more sense played in reverse. Yes. All of those things. And then some. They’ve pulled the ad. It doesn’t matter. Enough people have watched it. More people have talked about it. And I would still bet that most of those people are reading this on a device made by that brand. And they won’t be changing because of this ad. They’ll buy this new product too - because it’s better than the one that came before it. Am I deliberately avoiding making mention of the brand or product? Of course. Happy Friday. I’m off to eat a Pear. #advertising #creativity #brand #branding

"...humor has a positive effect on memory recall, and consumers recall humorous advertisements better than non-humorous ones." Cheeky? If you know us, you know we kinda live for cheeky humor. While humor doesn’t make sense for every brand, it can be gold if it fits yours. Want to learn how to create a brand personality that speaks to people on a deeper level? That’s what we do! #multifamilymarketing #multifamily https://ow.ly/TUfA50PnTTa

Is it time to think different about advertising? There was a time when ads were talked about beyond Christmas or the Superbowl. They were at the forefront of pop culture, not racing to catch up; iconic ads that created global fame for the brands they promoted whilst becoming famous in their own right. TBWA/Chiat/Day’s ‘The Crazy Ones’ was one such ad. Written by Rob Siltanen, Lee Clow, and others and art directed by Craig Tanimoto, it was the launch spot for Apple’s Think Different campaign and helped to transform the company’s fortunes. Below, purely for illustrative purposes, is a regeneration of it (tap to play) featuring a new host of change-makers: Greta Thunberg Alexi Navalny Al Gore David Attenborough Elizabeth Wathuti Majorca Carter Robert Bullard Edna Odhiambo Nina Jensen Mina Guli Evelyn Acham Peggy Liu Jane Burston Christiana Figueres Imagine if we did more than just churn out mountains of vapid new content all the time. What if, instead, we looked at creative ways of recycling and regenerating the most compelling and emotive content we have already - not just to sell more stuff, but to spread timely and important messages to us in a way that is kinder to the planet and encourages us to act? What else is it time to regenerate? #RegenTV #ConsciousCreativity #Advertising #SustainableMarketing #Nuevo ___________ Enjoy this?

I LOVE this whole notion. Firstly the idea of re-using/regenerating concepts in advertising and marketing. Let's be honest, it happens all the time anyway but more often just with people stealing other people's ideas without giving any credit. But the best adverts have a timeless capacity to remain relevant because they were great ideas with brilliantly written copy. Seb Royce FRSA kudos to you for showing an alternative approach through regeneration and even more so for demonstrating this with your example. So often these days we actively avoid adverts. But a powerful message executed and presented well has the power to capture and engage. Check out Seb's example if you don't believe me.
