The document describes 50/50, a collaborative fundraising campaign to raise £1 million for famine relief in East Africa. It works by launching 50 web-based fundraising projects over 50 days, with individuals and groups creating innovative digital projects in their spare time. Examples provided include websites, apps, and social media campaigns encouraging donations through activities like abstaining from swearing on Twitter or Facebook. The document provides details on several specific projects and organizations participating in the 50/50 initiative.
50/50 is a collaborative experiment, a platform of 50 little bets: digital projects created and run by individuals and teams of makers. Each project aims to engage a network of supporters to help spread the word and generate as much money for famine aid as possible.
A seemingly impossible challenge first hatched by Good for Nothing and Made by Many, 50/50 is open to everyone. Whatever you decide to do, do something. All funds go directly to UNICEF
The document outlines an upcoming Northwest Sustainability Discovery Tour hosted by The Noble Family of Companies, which includes their agency, culinary center, and CultureWaves behavioral insights division. It then discusses trends in corporate, cultural, and future sustainability efforts including green products, packaging made from recycled materials, and innovations in renewable energy and transportation. Finally, it identifies four opportunity areas for discussion: critiquing corporate customer service, increasing social media engagement, emphasizing exclusive experiences, and simplifying sustainability messaging.
The document discusses how to create content that people will engage with by focusing on meeting core human needs of survival, laughter, relationships, growth, and contribution to something bigger. It argues that successful platforms like soap operas, Instagram, and Spotify provided valuable integrated content that people wanted rather than just interrupting them. The key is to find what people are passionate about, frame products around that passion, create content platforms as a conduit to that passion, and nurture the platform over time as movements take years to develop.

The Role of Sex in International and Domestic AdvertisingTrevor LaRose
This document summarizes research on the use of sex in advertising. It finds that the use of sex in ads has increased over time, especially for alcohol. While sexual ads attract more male attention, they can negatively impact women and children by promoting unrealistic body images and unhealthy behaviors. International views on sexual ads vary by culture, with more restrictions in China and Thailand but more acceptance in Brazil. The roles of both women and advertising have changed in recent decades, but gender stereotypes still persist to some degree.

Starbucks & Ford Motorcar Company Case StudyXiiangEelyn
This document summarizes social media case studies for Starbucks and Ford Motor Company. For Starbucks, it describes their current situation focusing on gaining popularity through social media rather than traditional marketing. It outlines their social media presence on Twitter and Facebook, and how it helped boost their reputation and meet environmental stewardship goals. For Ford, it discusses their failed "Lion Man of Tanzania" viral marketing campaign on YouTube in 2007-2008 that was misleading and did not effectively promote their product. This led to negative consumer feedback and potentially hurt sales over that period. The document concludes that Ford would have benefited from better social media marketing.
Planners in advertising embark upon all sorts of quests to uncover the truths about our audiences, learning about people through data and focus groups— eXploring, as we call it at Y&R. But rarely do they attempt something as ambitious as a recent Y&R project: seven days of literal exploration in Myanmar, a country that’s a mystery to the outside world.
Through the pains of early British colonization and decades of military rule, today’s Myanmar is finally emerging from isolation. We wanted to understand this wildcard of a country—and potential new market. Rather than researching from a distance, we explored the country. The result is a new VML, Y&R, VICE Media collaboration: an adventurous, groundbreaking new feature called “7 Days Out.”
The collaboration was the brainchild of VML Singapore planning director, Rahul Chawra. Vice Media sent VML Planner Siddharth Seth to Yangon, the cultural capital of Myanmar, where he immersed himself for seven days in its culture and uncovered unexpected and inspiring insights. In “The New Faces of Yangon” Seth met with modern day artists, spiritual leaders, business innovators, and trailblazers like Thazin Nyut Aung from the female rap group Y.A.K.

Celebrity charity websites the importance of taglines and hook statementsKatharine Coles
This document discusses the importance of taglines and hook statements for celebrity charity websites. It notes that charities cannot assume everyone knows who they are or what they do. Taglines and hooks allow visitors to understand the charity's mission quickly from the homepage within 10-15 seconds. The document provides examples of celebrity charities and how their websites could be improved with clearer taglines and hooks that concisely communicate what issues they address and who they serve. It emphasizes that nonprofits, like all brands, need messaging that is crystal clear.

2. The many terms for different shades of color in Russian (e.g. different words for light blue and dark blue) have been found to aid Russian speakers' ability to distinguish between subtle color variations.

This document provides details about Ryan McDaid's past experience working on brand strategy projects. It describes challenges and approaches for two projects - expanding Trojan Condoms into sexual wellness products like vibrators, and making the Seventh Generation brand of eco-friendly household products more appealing to mainstream consumers. Through consumer research, both projects identified insights that helped shape new marketing strategies and product lines to broaden the brands' audiences.
Coca-Cola has effectively managed its brand message and maintained popularity over 130+ years through strategic advertising and promotion. Originally starting as a local drink in Atlanta, Coca-Cola spread its message by giving out free samples, coupons, and putting its logo on various promotional items. It established iconic visual branding with its logo and red-and-white color scheme. Even today, Coca-Cola uses aggressive holiday advertising like the Christmas truck tour to associate itself with tradition and remain top-of-mind for consumers. The company also employs spin techniques and damage control to maintain a positive public image through commitments to sustainability and shaping media coverage of any negative events.
The document discusses two early Christian heresies: Nestorianism and Apollinarianism. Nestorius taught that Christ was two separate persons (divine and human) united by will. Apollinaris taught that Christ's human nature was incomplete as he lacked a human soul and mind. Both heresies were addressed at ecumenical church councils, which affirmed the orthodox view of Christ having both a full human and divine nature united in one person.

From Hope to Despair: The Top 10 Reasons Businesses Ditch SEO Tactics
Are you tired of seeing your business's online visibility plummet from hope to despair? When it comes to SEO tactics, many businesses find themselves grappling with challenges that lead them to abandon their strategies altogether. In a digital landscape that's constantly evolving, staying on top of SEO best practices is crucial to maintaining a competitive edge.
In this blog, we delve deep into the top 10 reasons why businesses ditch SEO tactics, uncovering the pain points that may resonate with you:
1. Algorithm Changes: The ever-changing algorithms can leave businesses feeling like they're chasing a moving target. Search engines like Google frequently update their algorithms to improve user experience and provide more relevant search results. However, these updates can significantly impact your website's visibility and ranking if you're not prepared.
2. Lack of Results: Investing time and resources without seeing tangible results can be disheartening. The absence of immediate results often leads businesses to lose faith in their SEO strategies. It's important to remember that SEO is a long-term game that requires patience and consistent effort.
3. Technical Challenges: From site speed issues to complex metadata implementation, technical hurdles can be daunting. Overcoming these challenges is crucial for SEO success, as technical issues can hinder your website's performance and user experience.
4. Keyword Competition: Fierce competition for top keywords can make it hard to rank effectively. Businesses often struggle to find the right balance between targeting high-traffic keywords and finding less competitive, niche keywords that can still drive significant traffic.
5. Lack of Understanding of SEO Basics: Many businesses dive into the complex world of SEO without fully grasping the fundamental principles. This lack of understanding can lead to several issues:
Keyword Awareness: Failing to recognize the importance of keyword research and targeting the right keywords in content.
On-Page Optimization: Ignorance regarding crucial on-page elements such as meta tags, headers, and content structure.
Technical SEO Best Practices: Overlooking essential aspects like site speed, mobile responsiveness, and crawlability.
Backlinks: Not understanding the value of high-quality backlinks from reputable sources.
Analytics: Failing to track and analyze data prevents businesses from optimizing their SEO efforts effectively.
6. Unrealistic Expectations and Timeframe: Entrepreneurs often fall prey to the allure of quick fixes and overnight success. Unrealistic expectations can overshadow the reality of the time and effort needed to see tangible results in the highly competitive digital landscape. SEO is a long-term strategy, and setting realistic goals is crucial for success.

THE FIRST BOTTLED
WATER THAT IS
UNLIKE ANY OTHER
PRODUCT ON THE
MARKET.The two of us were fairly sure that our main product line (HPP guayusa) would
get accepted by at least one region of Whole Foods, but we weren’t 100% sure.
And the future of the company depended on getting into Whole Foods. So, on
his own, Nick developed this product and submitted it to Whole Foods under a
different brand name (to be produced and sold through Gunpowder).
The Pacific Northwest Region of Whole Foods (Seattle/Portland) enthusiastically
accepted the full line, with a SRP of $3.99, but they required us to start with a
“DSD” distributor which gives more hands-on attention than UNFI but charges
25% instead of 8%. Once established, we could move to UNFI, they said.
At that same 5/18/15 Board meeting, the group decided that the margin with
DSD was too low and voted to set it aside. We walked away from the Whole
Foods region that wanted the product, something that almost never happens.
• The first super-premium HPP water
• Proprietary technology allows XO to
maintain alkalinity even with acidic fruit
• Extensive flavor testing to identify the
combinations with widest appeal
• Ingredients chosen to maximize health
benefits—nutrient-rich & detoxifying
We created this brand as part of the same company.

The first bottled iced tea
that actually tastes good.
In addition to the XO waters, we also submitted several of our original iced
teas (HPP treated) to Whole Foods, as a backup to our main product line.
None of them got accepted. We were told that most stores are already
removing existing bottled teas from the cold case, because they’re not
moving enough. That, combined with the $5.99 SRP caused too much
doubt about whether this product would work.
Nonetheless, we maintain these are the best iced teas you’ll ever taste.
Our mission is to take bottled tea to a new
level. Nearly all bottled tea on the market is heat
pasteurized and contains added acids to extend
shelf life. We use pressure instead of heat to extend
our shelf life. This gives you fresh-brewed flavor
and preserves nutrients. We start with premium
artisanal tea leaves and fresh organic produce, and
we cold-brew to minimize tannins. We guarantee
this is the best quality bottled tea you’ve ever
tasted, or we’ll buy you one of our competitors’
bottles. For details, visit xt-pure.com/guarantee.
We created this brand as part of the same company.

Bill and Melinda Gates
called us when they
needed something
to show Oprah. We
delivered.
When we got the call, Bill and Melinda Gates were scheduled to appear
on Oprah in 21 days. One full episode (and, as it happened, a second
full episode) was to be dedicated to America’s failing education system.
The Gates Foundation had a very clear statement of the problem to
present, but they needed a call to action that would allow Oprah’s
massive following to get involved.
We had three weeks to create a nationwide campaign that appeared
to have enough momentum that Oprah felt comfortable asking her
viewers to become a part of it.

We spent one very
intense hour with
Al Gore (and 3 solid
months preparing for it).
As part of our five-year partnership with Time Warner Cable on their $100M initiative,
‘Connect a Million Minds’, we orchestrated this unique event to light a fire under the
smoldering national dialogue around America’s failure to engage young people in
science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM).
We used a brand new technology platform which enables live group meetings on a
scale never before possible. In each of TWC’s 15 markets, we had a group of 300-500
young people in an auditorium, with a large screen and microphone up front. The kids
in each market had an opportunity to interact with Mr. Gore throughout the live event.
The event also included inventor Dean Kamen, astronaut Sally Ride, Discovery
Channel’s “MythBusters” Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage, U.S. Secretary of
Education Arne Duncan and Microsoft Xbox creative visionary Kudo Tsunoda.

Why do kids in the U.S.
under-perform the rest
of the world in math
and science?U.S. teens rank 35th in math and 29th in science worldwide. Is this solely because our education system is broken? Or are
there fundamental differences in mindset between young people in America and those elsewhere that explain this?
It has become clear that spending money on education—e.g. the over $2B that the Gates Foundation has invested in
American schools—will not fix the problem. Our mission here was to shed light on cultural differences that may be at the
root of this.
We conducted interviews with 12-to-16-year-olds in Sydney, Helsinki, Shanghai and two American Cities—Los Angeles
and Minneapolis, as well as a small number of parents and teachers in those cities.
Here’s what we found:
• Kids in other countries care more about academic success and less about everything else.
• Kids in the U.S. care more about sports and social life than those in other countries, by a huge margin.
• In other countries, there is less social stigma associated with high academic performance and, specifically, interest in
math and science—i.e. it’s cool to be smart.

A troubling
social
experiment.Rock the Vote gave us a mission: get young people in LA to think about discrimination,
rather than passively accepting it as part of the social landscape.
We took over a drive-through burger place in the San Fernando valley and
implemented a rule: customers with foreign accents will be charged double.
What happened was shocking and disturbing. Virtually no one who was not directly
affected spoke up. And most of the people who were double-charged did not object.
(Their money was later returned, and they were filled in.)
A second experiment took place at a skate park, where we segregated kids with blue
eyes into one area and all others into another. Nearly all complied without objecting.
We produced two TV spots from the footage, and the LA Times and New York Times
wrote feature stories about our experiments.

Those who cannot
remember the past
are condemned to
repeat it.Half of American teens don’t know what the Holocaust was.
Two independent surveys have found this to be true, and we confirmed
it by conducting our own interviews with teenagers in four U.S. cities.
(See the video on our site.)
To do something about this problem, we partnered with MTV and
created a campaign that shows teens—in a visceral way they will never
forget—what it would have felt like for them.
The campaign, “the Holocaust happened to People Like Us”, had the
desired effect. Millions of teens saw the spots and reacted to them.

43. Is Eme really the value proposiEon?
(And does it serve us to go further and make it
a concrete period of Vme: one hour?)
I can weigh in as a CLEAR customer:
What CLEAR offers me is (1) freedom from the
misery of the long line, (2) a posi2ve
enjoyable experience in place of a bad one,
and (3) confidence that I will make my flight,
so I can get home to the things that mager
most. None of these equate to Eme.
44
55. “YOU ARE YOU, INSTEAD OF SOMETHING IN YOUR POCKET”
This is a beautiful idea. I absolutely love what it stands for, and this idea
is part of what makes the brand interesting and appealing to me.
But…
The first 20 times I read it, I was sure it was a typo. (I actually pointed
it out as a typo to you, Todd, when we met.)
It’s exceptionally hard to parse and understand this sentence.
I’m certain that we can find a way to express this idea that is simple, bold,
pure and easily understandable.
56
56. CLEAR IS ALL ABOUT:CHOOSE ONE: SELECT A OR B
A. B.
Much of the language that’s been used to describe CLEAR implies
the answer is A. As a customer, I’ll share that, for me, the CLEAR
experience is enVrely about the person. The technology is incidental.

58. NEWS STORIES ABOUT CLEAR
Some news stories use both language and B-roll footage that are far from
ideal, in terms of how they portray CLEAR.
Here are a couple of examples from last year’s Wall Street Journal video:
Issues with this section of B-roll:
1. They’re showing the sign-up process, but the commentators aren’t talking
about that: they’re explaining how CLEAR gets you through security faster.
2. The implication is that, to go through security, you need to do the multiple
choice identity-verification guessing game that everyone hates.
3. The B-roll has graphics in the lower third, causing the news graphics to overlap.
Issues with this section of B-roll:
1. They are talking about airport security but showing CLEAR for sports venues
2. Again, they’re showing the sign-up process but not talking about it.
(And the sign-up process doesn’t look simple or easy.)
3. Same issue with graphics in the lower third. (And what is visible is super-
confusing in the context of airports.)

65. TRIBES: RELEVANCE TO CLEAR
During a visit to the NASA space center in 1962,
President John F. Kennedy noticed a janitor carrying a
broom. He interrupted his tour, walked over to the man
and said, "Hi, I'm Jack Kennedy. What are you doing?"
"Well, Mr. President," the janitor responded,
"I'm helping put a man on the moon."
By building a movement around CLEAR—and
engaging both employees and customers—we can
get everyone to feel ownership of the mission.
66
67. THE TIPPING POINT: RELEVANCE TO CLEAR
STICKYNESS QUALITY DETERMINING RATE OF VIRAL SPREAD
The desire to make CLEAR ‘s2ckier’ underlies this en2re deck. We need the CLEAR brand itself (apart from the service) to have a
personality that people find akrac2ve. This is achieved by finding ways to communicate, as widely and powerfully as possible, what
the brand represents—which must be something with significant widespread appeal. We have quite a few thoughts on how to do this.
MAVENS, CONNECTORS AND SALESMEN THE ONES WHO SPREAD IT
We need to create communica2ons that directly target each one of these three categories of people. The mavens include all the
people on the internet who have posi2oned themselves as travel experts; they will value what they perceive to be exclusive
informa2on or offers. Connectors will be mo2vated by any kind of currency they can transfer to their connec2ons, whether it’s in the
form of entertainment, informa2on or special offers. And salesmen will respond to strong pitches that interest them enough to use
the same pitch on their contacts.
SCARCITY A NECESSARY CONDITION
I’m guessing this is the reason that you haven’t blanketed the internet with “free first month” offers. One way to create scarcity
would be to limit the number of memberships that can be sold in a period of 2me, pufng up signs (and online banners) announcing
that there are a limited number of memberships available—and periodically announcing that sales of new memberships are being
paused. It would be an interes2ng experiment to see the effect of this on sales.

— THESE ARE PRELIMINARY AND WITHOUT
THE BENEFIT OF MEETING WITH CARYN AND
OTHER SENIOR MANAGEMENT—ALSO WITHOUT
HAVING SEEN OR CONDUCTED ANY RESEARCH.

69
69. Again, please keep in mind:
I don’t presume to know your brand better than you.
It is because you have already done a fantastic job of creating a
bold and compelling brand that I am driven to offer these ideas.
Please take the good ones and use them.
(And forget you ever saw the others.)
Thank you.

Also:
I believe the greatest value of
what follows is in helping to identify
the most important questions
that must be answered.
[I have included partial answers, but consider
them just a starting point for conversation.]
71
84. “CLEAR’s mission is to create
amazing experiences for
consumers through technology.”
First: Caryn is AWESOME.
Second: Are there are plans for CLEAR to branch out into areas beyond biometric
idenVty verificaVon?
If so, this mission may be fiung.
If not—consider the following quesVons:
(1) Is technology really part of what CLEAR exists to accomplish, or is it just a tool (which
conceivably could eventually be replaced by a different tool)? (NoVce that Google,
Facebook and Amazon all omit “technology” from their mission.)
(2) The four mission statements on the preceding pages are all about what those
companies do for their customers and the world. Is create amazing experiences the
best descripVon of what CLEAR is doing for its customers and the world?
As I’ve menVoned, I LOVE CLEAR.
But I wouldn’t say CLEAR has created any amazing experiences for me.
CLEAR has, in fact, done amazing things for me.
Earlier this year, I was traveling to give a keynote presentaVon at a conference in front of
2000 developers of affordable housing. I was running late, and I got to the airport to find
the longest security line I’d ever seen. UnVl I realized CLEAR was there, I was certain I
wouldn’t make it in Vme to present. But within 3 minutes, I was already through security.
That presentaVon was criVcally important to me, and CLEAR kept me from missing it.
Part of what I value about CLEAR is that the experience is always pleasant and easy.
But what I value more is that CLEAR allows me to avoid the worst part of flying—and it
protects me from unexpected delays that could have disastrous consequences.
85
85. This is what I find most exciting about CLEAR too.
There are very few companies that have
significantly changed the way we live our lives.
For me, Amazon has changed how I live. I virtually
never go to any brick and mortar stores (other than
supermarkets). Amazon Prime and PrimeNow
completely eliminated a time-consuming (and, for
me, not enjoyable) activity from my life. Amazon
did this because their mission drives them to do
everything possible to help their customers.
I share Caryn’s excitement about how CLEAR will
change our lives. Before long, the idea of carrying
around a plastic card with your photo on it to
identify yourself will seem as quaint as a Smith
Corona or a cassette player.
Shouldn’t the mission directly address the part
that is so exciting?
“When I look out into the
future, I am most excited
about the fact that… in five
years, people will be leaving
home without their wallets…”
86
87. THE MORE NARROWLY WE CAN IDENTIFY OUR
TARGET AUDIENCE OF POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS,
THE MORE EFFECTIVELY WE CAN ENGAGE THEM.
[KNOWING HOW AND WHERE TO REACH THEM
DEPENDS LARGELY ON WHO THEY ARE]
EACH VERTICAL WILL HAVE ITS OWN TARGET
88
93. WE CAN HAVE MANY SECONDARY CORE MESSAGES.
EACH ONE OF THESE WILL PRESENT A VALUE PROPOSITION THAT IS
LESS ABOUT THE NUTS AND BOLTS OF WHAT CLEAR DOES FOR YOU.
THESE WILL TAKE TWO FORMS:
(1) A VALUE PROPOSITION: HOW CLEAR CAN MAKE YOUR LIFE BETTER
(2) AN IDEA THE BRAND EMBODIES: WHY YOU AND CLEAR BELONG TOGETHER

the form of a set of videos, to be
