Editor's Notes
- #4 What it’s like today
- #5 1 zetabyte is equivalent to 2 billion years worth of music.Its all a bit too much (think of all the more reasons to procrastinate )Information used to be a commodity, now attention isIn the past year internet users in Africa have grown 2527.4% to now over 600 million user
- #6 If you look at the different mediums and their popularity over time you will see we are in an ever more complex spaceThe timeline on this graph is not linear though
- #7 If you look at these sources of info over time though you see a very interesting story, we are going though a media revolution, I think large companies have 2 year from now to get it right or become irrelevant
- #8 What it’s like today
- #9 What it’s like today
- #10 People used to just dance and live the experience, now we try and capture and share the experience and later re-live itGive people your full attention - tech brings us closer, but also farther apart.
- #11 Remember everything is going to be ok,
- #12 In SA the internet spend is about 3%! There is a huge opportunity here – cheap media – massive reach – seen as industry leaders (if fnb can do it with banks why cant multichoice do it with TV)
- #13 In SA we have been mobile for a long time (most others only last 1or2 years)Internet users now just over 12 million (24%)42 million mobile users in SA – There are 68m active sim cards. Over 2 million Tablets

- #15 Interesting they use Persuade , Manipulate, and Encourage… three words that elicit a similar outcome but are accomplished by very different means(I would say when advertising was invented it was passive and helpful, then it became Persuasive, that quickly turned to manipulation, now it is turning more toward encouraging through participation)
- #17 Because things have changed – brands / agencies behave differently because people behave differently
- #18 Interesting they use Persuade , Manipulate, and Encourage… three words that elicit a similar outcome but are accomplished by very different means(I would say when advertising was invented it was passive and helpful, then it became Persuasive, that quickly turned to manipulation, now it is turning more toward encouraging through participation)
- #20 Leave out the jargon, who talk about tissue session, LSM’s, negative space, type, Essentially most of the time you the equivalent of the wait 5 seconds before you can skip this adIf only they had used din light this ad would have really talked to me and my identity.Remember when you put your video online, you compete with billions of content that's not advertising. Be brave
- #22 This is ultimately our job, no matter how great / clever / creative your ad is if its not getting noticed it’s worthless

- #27 We might need an act or an app or an attitude. Called creative agencies not ad agenciesMarketers need to work higher up the chain.Product development, software development, corporate culture shifts.
- #28 We used to use technology independently to get messages across, now we use it best when we use it seamlessly to help amplify and create stories about ideas that would not have been possible before
- #29 preferably one that has been around for a really long time…Identify that desire
- #30 preferably one that has been around for a really long time…Identify that desire
- #31 When you interact with people that’s when real magic happens. Do things with and for people Interactivity creates trust and loyalty
- #32 The good ones already do.Having a higher purpose allows you to access better stories.(Maslow's hierarchy of needs)Tell the truth
- #33 Make it WOW. An interesting way to test new work - Google don’t make a product unless it looks good as a case study first – Google Glass was made this way
- #34 Provoke.Its where the magic is, it sets you up for something, chemical reactions kick in and attention will happen.
- #35 Our job is to make the new familiar and the familiar new (Find intangible value)
