We launched with a single belief.
When it comes to marketing: actions speak louder than words.

3. We launched with a shared vision...
Marketing can move from something people try to avoid...
Into something that people want, value and enjoy.

for people, not an excuse to say things to them.

Marketing As A Service is: a product, service or idea that performs a complimentary
function. It adds value while also driving usage or purchase intent around a core offering.

10. It isn’t a new idea.

1900 to encourage French motorists
to drive and consume tires.

Canon introduced White Lenses designed to “stay cooler” in the sunlight. They
completely overtook Nikon in professional sports photography.

13. It’s an important
strategy of some
of the world’s
great brands.
Brands that are respected, beloved
and that consistently make money.

14. It’s easy to see why.
Marketing As A Service can be far more effective.
It’s also immune to many of the worst problems that plague marketers today.

15. © Zeus Jones 2007
Media fragmentation is no longer a concern.
Marketing As A Service is pulled by customers not pushed by marketers.

Clutter ceases to be an issue. While the average person sees thousands of
messages a day, they run into useful things far less often.

Marketing As A Service creates differentiation.
Companies often say the same things, but they rarely do the same things.

18. Ultimately, doing something instead of saying
something is actually a better way to communicate.
People will talk about what you do more than they’ll talk about what you say.

Their talk amplifies
your actions.
Into messages that are far more
convincing than you could deliver.

20. Most importantly, Marketing As A Service can alter
the fundamental economics of marketing.
It can deliver results that are more effective than the equivalent traditional expenditure.
It can create assets that pay for themselves.

22. The Michelin Guide is

phenomenon.
Last year it produced revenue of 16
billion Euros or over 21 billion Dollars.

23. Today, Marketing As A Service is open to anyone.

24. Digital technology has increased the ability to do.
New technologies and opportunities are being created every day.
It’s a time of enormous innovation.
This has dramatically lowered the barrier to entry for creating services.
But it requires a different set of skills.

We did a lot great, award-winning interactive and non-traditional work in our previous lives.

32. But the partnership was really formed through
creating Marketing As A Service.
Those were the projects we’re most proud of from our collective past.

We got people to spend an hour thinking about insurance by making
an interactive experience that taught them how to manage risk.

For Radio Shack we created an “Answer Center” kiosk
using real employees sharing their technical expertise.

35. © Zeus Jones 2007
For Brawny we created entertainment and online content to help women improve their husbands.

36. © Zeus Jones 2007
For Sony we helped people get the most out of their
Walkman by giving them a tool to discover new music.

37. © Zeus Jones 2007
For cost of a banner campaign, we created a band to sell Media Center PC to music
lovers. We got 40K downloads, 20K CD requests, drove 2 million web visits and
helped Media Center PC reach the top ten of all computers sold.

For Nordstrom we used video remixes to create a living fashion catalog. Women could
shop as they watched or create their own outfits and remixes.

39. © Zeus Jones 2007
For Microsoft's Mac Business Unit, we turned a hostile Mac audience into evangelists by giving them
tools to customize their Macs - functionality that Apple had taken away with the release of OSX.

40. We want to re-invent marketing. We also want to
re-invent the client-agency relationship.
Retained hours-based relationships value bodies over ideas. They incentivize agencies
to drag their feet and clients to avoid contact.
Our model is project-based and tied to value created not time taken.
