While I may be in the minority, I actually love this Southwest spot. It’s got moxie, mister! Problem is, when you look at some of the other policies they have in place and the Kevin Smith snafu , it’s kinda tainted for me. Look, agencies generally try to solve problems for clients. The most they can do is make recommendations about a brand’s core product or how it should change its...
Well, it’s been a while since I fragged Sears, so here goes. When we last left our intrepid brand, they had set up a community site with more obstacles than a health bill trying to pass the House. HAR! This time, I needed a battery. One, lousy car battery. Rather than drop $124 at Meineke, I released my inner DIY’er and hit Sears online . Of course, you ain’t getting the “As...
Ravi Somaiya of Gawker wants me to link to his article, "How Blogs Are Becoming More Like Newspapers". I'm doing so and repackaging a couple of his paragraphs for good measure. Now blogs compete aggressively for audience. Politico , Deadline Hollywood and everyone else seeks to break news to differentiate them from their competition. To do so they, and we, must also now write tight, concise...
Ben Kunz on Thought Gadgets has his take on the recent Nestlé and their Facebook page snafu. Long story short: Their social media person nuked a ton of replies that weren’t favorable to the brand. Replies that were also furthering a Greenpeace agenda. In addition, Nestlé said they would delete any posts with avatars depicting their logo in a negative light. Now, because there’s...
What with their ability to to immediately echo whatever feature it is that you seem to pick out when viewing a house. No negative is ever an obstacle. Ever. Not even :30 seconds in, listen how Mike upsells highway noise. Win-win! And, when that row of trees matures in 20 years to become an overgrown mess between the houses? PRIVACY! The high monthly association fees? LOOK AT THAT GORGEOUS POOL. The...
I was in a diagram kinda mood, shoot me. With apologies to Venn freaks everywhere, I tried jotting down on a Post-it how much time during the day I was wasting/spending/using up online.* (Pick one, depending on your frame of mind.) It looked scary, so hello, CS. Where “you” is really “me” and the logos are any social networks you happen to live on, the center area reflects the...

The only marketing industry, which are not found by the economic crisis, the financial crisis that has afflicted the global warming or the current turmoil in financial markets around the world is grown-up marketing. Words such as sex, cross dildos, porn and many others are still selling like hot cakes in the search engines around [...]
A few months ago, the Journal wrote a piece about the demise of the slush pile, that undifferentiated mass of unsolicited ideas from authors and screenwriters in search of a publisher or studio. They missed the point. In the words...

Often, businesses hire freelancers (writers, photographers, process consultants, trainers) to solve a specific problem for the lowest possible cost. And a good freelancer at the right price is often the right approach. Sometimes, though, you spend more and get something...
When will it end, this stop motion madness! Although, I like the more involved animation here over the Gerber spot, and more than the first one in this series . That one was a leetle too happy for my liking. (Here, the song is Stole Your Heart by Marcus Ashley and Annie Little .) Nothing against happy tracks or *happy* in general, and not that I expect Henry Rollins to belt out an endorsement anytime...
