brand principles have at least TWELVE REASONS for people to try your product
packaging CAN MAKE OR BREAK your experience
brand principles HAVE A MASCOT
Rented ice cream trucks in major cities, packaged shirts in ice cream cartons and push pops. Surprise and delight with random items in online orders – cash, Snickers bars, doll’s heads. CEO writes letters, and signs packaging regularly. On April Fool’s Day, sold cupcakes and hid all t-shirts. Thought starters to make a big impact. Don't limit yourself.
and a final, great idea: HAVE A “KILL A STUPID RULE” CAMPAIGN Don't let the red tape limit you. To do great things, you need to push the limits of comfort within your organization.
