The document discusses how marketing has become overwhelmed by complexity and how creativity often just adds more complexity. It argues that the solution is less creativity, not more. It provides examples showing that imitating existing broad ideas across industries is more efficient and effective than developing completely new ideas. The key is not the idea itself but the execution and bringing existing ideas to new industries. Successful marketing relies on creating true believers within the organization first before convincing new customers. The context of applying even common ideas can be new enough to galvanize teams.

CEO's need to change the way their companies do business. Why? How? and... Do it Different! Check out these 3 key messages in detail. This presentation was held at the CEO Forum in Taipei, Taiwan.
This document discusses the changing landscape of marketing and strategy. It notes that consumers are now more informed and skeptical of traditional advertising approaches. Data and analytics are providing marketers more insights into customers and allowing for more targeted approaches. Winning strategies create impact by stimulating conversations, involving consumers through experiences, and building influence, intimacy and identity with brands. Great strategists embrace uncertainty, flexibility and imagination to develop possibilities and tweak approaches based on results. The document emphasizes gaining insights across many categories to develop winning marketing strategies.
Ryan Thompson discusses how events can drive economic success for a community. He argues that destination marketing requires more than just business deals and should involve creating engaging experiences through events, partnerships, marketing and branding. Thompson uses examples like how Addison, Texas successfully activated its community through numerous monthly events, and how cities that focus on creating unique experiences and collaborating with partners have seen strong growth. He concludes that communities should find and promote their authentic value proposition, get partners to work cooperatively, and plan events that showcase everything the location has to offer through memorable experiences.
This document outlines an educational presentation about building an integrated marketing machine. It discusses the importance of focusing on modern consumer behaviors and their increasing control over media.

The presentation recommends taking action to define metrics, know audiences, tell stories, use content to drive conversions, and demand meaningful reporting.

The document summarizes a discussion between Tim Suther, CMO of Acxiom, and Emily Cavalier of Argyle Executive Forum on May 5, 2011 about the shifting balance of power between brands and consumers. Suther argues that for marketers to succeed, they need to 1) leverage proprietary customer insights to engage audiences, 2) develop multidimensional insights into customers, 3) create a marketing "central nervous system" to sense and respond to customer actions, and 4) coordinate personalized experiences for customers. Suther estimates that applying these capabilities could increase returns by 15-30% for most brands.
Effectiveness is at the heart of everything we do. David Ogilvy himself wrote a series of full-page ads in the New York Times in the 1960s with headlines such as "How To Create Advertising That Sells." His most famous book, Ogilvy on Advertising, is packed with guidance on the success factors of effective campaigns.
However, the marketing landscape has changed beyond recognition in the past fifty years. We are delighted to share our latest publication, The Ogilvy & Mather guide to effectiveness. In it, Worldwide Effectiveness Director, Tim Broadbent, deals with one of the most central questions in marketing: how to increase the effectiveness of our campaigns.
As marketing budgets come under increasing pressure in response to economic uncertainty in Europe and elsewhere, effectiveness is rising higher on clients' agendas. The message is timely.
The document introduces Gerald Linda & Associates, a marketing research firm. It discusses how the firm helps solve the "marketer's dilemma" by providing insights into customer and prospect behavior based on data rather than guesses. GL&A plans and executes marketing research, identifies insights, and develops marketing strategies and plans to inform clients' business decisions. Examples of insights GL&A has provided for various clients are also summarized.
This document discusses creating value through blue ocean strategy and finding new market spaces. It emphasizes differentiating yourself by focusing on a niche and developing clear competitive advantages. Specifically, it recommends combining integrated digital marketing services with a targeted micro-niche and reinforcing your unique value through perseverance to become remarkable and profitable.
This document provides 10 marketing tips for businesses to consider during an economic downturn. The tips include analyzing what is and isn't working, focusing on customer retention through loyalty programs, refining target audiences, investing in areas of growth, focusing messaging on value, differentiating from competitors, negotiating media rates, exploring new digital marketing channels like mobile and social media, and learning about future-oriented trends like social media marketing. The overall message is that while times are tough, smart marketing tactics can help businesses survive and possibly thrive during a recession.
The document discusses advertising strategies during economic downturns. It argues that cutting advertising budgets is a misguided approach that can damage long-term market share. While reduced advertising may not immediately hurt sales, competitors who continue advertising will capture customers over time. Studies show companies that maintain or increase advertising during recessions typically gain a 3.2 to 1 sales advantage over competitors who reduce marketing. The document encourages advertising with Vanderbilt Student Media to reach their target markets during tough economic times.
A McKinsey survey found that only 15% of marketers could quantitatively prove the impact of social media on their business. While social media spending continues to rise, measuring its effect remains a challenge. Studies show that engaged Facebook fans were 20 times more likely to purchase products than non-engaged fans. Marketers need to understand how to move customers through the sales funnel from awareness to consideration to purchase using engagement tactics on social media. Data and optimizing the customer experience across channels is key to measuring results.
This document discusses the importance of understanding numbers in the context of human behavior and stories. It advocates presenting numbers at a "conversational level" and seeing the human perspectives behind the data. Specific topics covered include how understanding audiences helped Audi and milk delivery services make business decisions. Research is cited showing emotional ads have greater impact on profits than rational ones. The document promotes translating human understanding into business advantage.
This document provides an overview of a class on re-thinking the advertising agency. It discusses how agency structures and cultures have changed to adapt to new digital technologies and consumer behaviors. Specialties within agencies are blending together and generalists are needed more than specialists. The class challenges students to think beyond their specialties and come up with big ideas that transcend individual roles. An assignment is given to identify a brand that has adapted well to the digital age and analyze examples of their creative digital work.

Change or Die ANA Magazine - Marketing2020 storyVermeer
The document discusses key findings from the Marketing 2020 initiative, which surveyed thousands of global marketing leaders. Three main points:
1) Successful marketing organizations are explicitly aligned to business growth goals and measure their performance based on growth indicators. CMOs need to lead their company's growth agenda.
2) Defining a clear company or brand purpose that connects to societal impact is important for future success. Marketers should define their purpose and connect brands to opportunities to deliver total experiences.
3) Global marketing requires connecting diverse teams, inspiring them with a shared vision, focusing them on unified goals, clearly defining roles, and building capabilities for the 21st century. High performing companies engage employees and customers around their brand purpose.
The document discusses several key trends in marketing for the future including:
1) Marketing will increasingly focus on dialogue and conversations with customers rather than one-way broadcasts.
2) Brand reputation and customer experience will become more important as information spreads quickly online.
3) New technologies like social media, mobile apps, and location-based services will open new opportunities for targeted marketing but also require adaptation.
The document discusses moving from an event-based marketing strategy to an always-on strategy. It identifies five main challenges that financial marketers face in pursuing an always-on approach: 1) the perception that social media is free when it requires resources, 2) lack of buy-in from top management, 3) siloed organizations, 4) legal and compliance concerns, and 5) difficulties measuring success. However, it notes examples like BlackRock that have found success with an always-on strategy on LinkedIn. It argues a shift is happening as senior management sees the benefits for trust-building, customer service, and talent attraction. It advises convincing stakeholders by pointing to personal experiences on social media and competitors' successes with

To successfully crowdsource, brands must [1] keep participant groups small to ensure quality, [2] clearly define their goals to attract the right crowd, and [3] provide feedback to participants to respect their contributions and maintain engagement. When done right, crowdsourcing can produce fresh ideas to benefit brands.

Southpaw's Keep Calm and Brand Build Webinar, with special guests WARC & System 1
1. SOUTHPAW/KEEPCALMANDBRANDBUILD
KEEP CALM AND BRAND BUILD
Southpaw’s Zoom panel explores why adopting the mantra of
‘Keep Calm & Brand Build’ will ensure your brand thrives in a crisis
4. SOUTHPAW/KEEPCALMANDBRANDBUILD
“Hitting long term targets is the real challenge,” observes
Macartney, an insight backed up by WARC data that shows
7/10 marketers want to invest in long term brand building but
feel that short term pressures have allowed emotion to
overtake reason.
But how to build your brand in the midst of a covid-triggered
supply and demand recession? “The one nuance many
marketers will be worried about is budgets,” says Imaad
Ahmed, Chief Advisory Officer, WARC. “But look at other
levers too to maintain visibility, like customer experience, PR,
partnerships and commerce.”
As per Binet and Field, brand building spend in its many forms
will aid recovery; it’s how you build your way out of
recessionary times. But as Orlando Wood says, “As we come
out of this (COVID-19 crisis) we have an opportunity to take
stock. We need to think about how to make advertising better
at attracting attention and eliciting emotional response.”
“THE KEY TO ELICITING
THAT EMOTIONAL
RESPONSE IS CREATIVITY.
ASIDE FROM SIZE, IT’S THE
MOST IMPORTANT THING
TO BUILD YOUR BRAND IN
THE LONG TERM.”
5. SOUTHPAW/KEEPCALMANDBRANDBUILD
Wood explains that we live in a time where advertising is aimed
at appealing to the narrow, linear, goal-orientated left brain. “The
type of creative that is made today - with a few exceptions -
tends to be different to the type you got 20-30 years ago.
Advertising has become unilateral, we’re not referencing the
things that attract and sustain interest - characters, human
interaction, parody and pastiche. Creativity is there, but it’s
being deployed in the wrong way.”
There’s a case for re-engineering the right kind of creativity -
namely the kind which appeals to the open, emotional and
connected right brain. But what’s going to motivate brands to do
this in a pandemic? Out of need, argues Macartney. “It’s not just
through a love and desire to make the work better. We should
need to make this work better because the data and case
studies show a decline in effectiveness over decades.”
“ADVERTISING WAS
ALREADY IN CRISIS
BEFORE IT WAS IN A
CRISIS. WE NEED TO
THINK ABOUT HOW WE
BRAND-BUILD BETTER.”
6. SOUTHPAW/KEEPCALMANDBRANDBUILD
“Company culture is imperative to get back to brand building and
growth. Long term-ism should be hardwired, so when panic happens
you are rooted to what you know and what is good for the business,”
asserts Macartney and Ahmed agrees, “You have to see advertising in
terms of capital investment and talk in the language of a CFO. The
research shows that excess share of voice correlates with profit, and
brand growth over the long term, and those are the things
stakeholders will be receptive to.”
Wood stands by the Three F’s: Fame, Feeling and Fluency. “They are
the three emperors of advertising: mental availability, the feeling you
get about a brand, and rapidity of recognition. Establish these three
heuristic principles so your customers can make quick and easy
decisions in your favour.”
FAME
FEELING
FLUENCY
7. SOUTHPAW/KEEPCALMANDBRANDBUILD
Macartney explains the importance of understanding your
audience. “Get down to granular detail. Understand biases,
decision making, behaviour - at Southpaw we work through
what is most likely to influence behaviour so we can nudge,
steer and create better brand building advertising.”
Once you have the advertising campaign, then depth and
breadth of commitment to your creative is what will seal the
deal. But don’t be fooled, says Imaad, it’s not all about the
dollar signs. “Creative Commitment is a composite metric of
three things: how much spent, how many channels, and the
duration. Increase Creative Commitment, and you increase
effectiveness. A lot of people assume that budget is the most
important lever, but that isn’t the case: by increasing channel
and duration, some brands have been able to move up the
ladder without having deep pockets.”
“THERE IS NOTHING
MORE SOBERING
THAN A CRISIS TO
HELP US RESTORE A
SENSE OF MEANING.”

3 LESSONS IN BRAND BUILDING
SEE ADVERTISING IN TERMS OF
CAPITAL INVESTMENT
FACTOR IN EMOTIONAL RESPONSE
TO YOUR WORK, THEN PLOT
MARKET CHANGES
CONSUMER RESPONSE TO
CREATIVE WORK HAS A
SIGNIFICANT BEARING
ON YOUR BRAND
Talk like your CFO. For example, an
excess share of voice correlates with
profit and brand growth over the long
term. Those are the things your
stakeholders will understand and be
receptive to.
This is how to show that emotional
response, as a measure, has a
bearing on market share changes.
There are many short term feedback
loops to track data, but this is how you
can plot and prove long term brand
building effects. How people connect
with the work is shown to have a
bearing on the long term outcome.
The WARC Effectiveness Ladder is a
tool that takes six types of marketing
effects that creativity can inspire, then
looks at the commercial impact. From
small ideas to enduring icons like John
Lewis and Snickers, this is a useful
way to learn and energise your own
brand building plans.
