SABMiller selects top creative agency The Greenhouse to market its draught beer portfolio
I don't drink beer, but anything that improves service and quality (whilst increasing sales) is a great idea. Well done Posted on 22 May 2013 16:15

Classic clashes - washing powder wars
I think Omo might become and unloved mark with their current TV ad. The men in the park with the kids are just a little... uncomfortable. Posted on 22 May 2013 15:43

Gupta's party plane on "official business"
So it took them all this time to suddenly discover... Oops! Forgot to tell you, but these people were here on official business.

I don't know what is worse - the fact that the incident happened in the first place, or the fact that they seriously expect us to believe such utter BS. Posted on 22 May 2013 12:27

Love the article, Mike! Very true.
What if there was a scientifically validated tool that could "select" employees from other areas in the business to work on a project using their best (and sometimes untapped) abilities?
The tool is called Compass and I'll email you with more details. Posted on 21 May 2013 14:54

Great article. The question then has to asked: If you (and many others) see radio as great great content generating medium then surely the power of successful "radio" based campaigns also lies in the ability to share this content via other more engaging platforms such as web and social media platforms. These online mediums also provide a great opportunity to deliver this content to a targeted audience, further increasing value for the advertiser. Currently, brands are looking for user engagement/user generated content. Radio is able to achieve this in some respects but it would be hard to imagine the medium ever becoming more engaging then web or social media platforms. Surely the key focus should be on how we, as marketers not only create interesting native advertising content but then how we share this content on a more measurable platform. Either way, I reckon there lies an interesting time ahead for the medium. TV and Print have managed to find ways to move into the digital space and have therefore provided advertisers with cross-platform coverage. (Terrestrial) radio, it seems has yet to make this move convincingly. Posted on 21 May 2013 14:23

DIY marketing dos and don'ts
I would argue strongly that design and layout should NEVER be part of DIY marketing. It's too specialised and invariably ends up looking messy when amateurs do it. Posted on 21 May 2013 14:08

You are spot on. Radio businesses need to see beyond themselves as a linear model. It's an approach I've been advocating since the launch of iOS in 2007. Smartphones are more than just phones - they're multi-purpose appliances that have an illogical emotional bond with their owners. Posted on 21 May 2013 14:02

Everyone must get b*tches...
The video has been put on to private so disappointed I didn't get to see this shocking display of wealthy kids showing their ignorance about the world around them. Posted on 21 May 2013 13:48
