2. Thomas Beakdal: How advertising worked in the old days
“Back then a company's product division would create an average product
for average people. They would take product to an advertising agency to
somehow make it exciting for people to buy.”
3. Clark Kokich: The Big Change
“The Big Change in all this wasn’t moving the channel for marketing
information from a newspaper page or TV screen over to a computer
monitor. What turned things upside down was the newfound ability for
consumers to talk back - to voice their own opinions, to share their love
for certain brands with each other, and to get mobile, on-the-spot reviews
about pasta, cars, and plumbers while standing in restaurants, show-
rooms, and two feet of water in their own basements”.
4. Its about the voice of the consumer.
“Not a single booming voice, but
a chorus without conductor.”
Ryan McManus
5. The Nielsen Company: Research
“Nielsen asked 25,000 Internet users from 50 countries, “Which sources
of ‘advertising’ do you trust most?” Ninety percent said they have
confidence in recommendations from people they know - in other words,
their friends and colleagues. Next on the list at 70 percent was consumer
opinions posted online”.
7. It enables us to reach out to the consumer. We've
think on relevant ideas and design services
exciting enough to talk about.

10. I like to connect brands with people
and pop culture. With small,
big, but most of all: relevant
ideas worth sharing.
