You've got to be in it, to win it Gill Moodie reckons there are no experts on Twitter or Facebook and says that social networks are so new, so vast, and developing so quickly, no one can keep up. But, as she also says, you need to be involved in social networks, because it won't pay if you don't play. Abey Mokgwatsane, CEO of Ogilvy South Africa, says there are four ways data changes business forever, and here they are ... Read his opinion piece. Radio is changing, so it's time to meet the digital radio programme directors of the future: you and your fellow listeners. Africa is a market with huge potential, and the way to reach it is via mobile - which is why you should focus your digital spend on feature phones. If brands don't embrace that, they will be wasting their money. Fetola's Anton Ressel says that by tagging a cause onto what we do simply because we think it is expected, for example by marketing a company as a 'green business', we can actually cheapen the real value in what that company produces. It all adds up, he says, to a cause-based marketing overload. Rod Baker: Content DirectorPS Take a look at the latest Ornico ad showcase. Responses to this column welcomed in our ed's column archive.

Marketing
[Anton Ressel] Do you market yourself as a 'green' business? OK, so you may use recycled materials in your products, limit electricity usage, even have different dustbins for glass, plastic and other, but does that entitle you to use words such as 'sustainable manufacturer' or 'environmentally-friendly' in your marketing spiel?

[Richard Mullins] Companies that want to position themselves to drive business value from digital marketing must start working towards mastering the discipline of remarketing or risk getting left behind by nimbler rivals. Read more >>
[Abey Mokgwatsane] If anything is about to transform the way marketing works, it's that four-letter word: data. Technological advancements that have made it possible for any brand and business to have authentic, meaningful relationships with consumers makes data all the more powerful and relevant. Read more >>
[Abram Molelemane] A great idea and the necessary resources to start a business are no guarantee of success. So many have had a sound idea and have executed it passionately and into the right market, but still found themselves as one of the nine out of ten small businesses that fail. What could have gone wrong? Read more >>

[Rolf Akermann] Is creativity clouding the issue...? When I studied at university and at IMM for a marketing manager course, etc it was always a task for students to define the target market and strategy that the brand was following of a particular campaign/commercial. At the risk of sounding like John Farquhar (whom I admire) I find creativity is clouding the issue. Read more >>
[Tinyiko Maswanganye] Advertising has changed. The consumers have changed. The audience preferences have changed, too. The most remarkable change has been the shift by brands to direct the attention to the majority. Read more >>
[Ann Druce] American marketers have drawn criticism for "newsjacking" Hurricane Sandy. American Apparel offered a 20% discount for 36 hours "in case you are bored during the storm" and Sears advertised on Twitter "Did Hurricane Sandy affect your city? Get your generators, air mattresses & more in one place". There are several other examples in a similar vein. Read more >>
Branding
[Banele Rewo] To add "innovation" in the company's mission and vision statement and not in the mind of the consumer should be a criminal offence. It is indisputable that there is an influx of new brands entering the market probably daily and new ideas are transforming the consumers in just as many days. Although this gives the consumer a universal view of the world, it is this global outlook that gives flat-footed brands a headache and innovative brands an edge. (video) Read more >>

[Ingrid von Stein] It is with awe and amazement that I meet summer every year, and in my heart there is always a kind of reverence for the magnificence of nature's own marketing team. For two thirds of every year the West Coast region and Namaqualand remains under the radar, just long enough for the world to nearly forget it exists. Then Nature's professional marketing teams take the lead and the whole world stops to notice. Read more >>
