of facilitating creative experiences.
Going digital means
being social, ditching
monologue for
conversation.

Editor's Notes

  1. Consume Brands make content, consumers consume it, allowing marketers to remain squarely in control of the “what” of their brand content. Interaction is the basic and fundamental challenge-slash-opportunity. Influence Grants the user a voice, and let go of the certainty of creative control. Create Doritos have, for almost a decade, asked fans to create their Super Bowl spot. The campaign has become the largest online video contest in the world, receiving thousands of entries and paying millions of dollars in cash prizes.
