WHAT I BELIEVE

We are living in the wide-screen,
small-screen, pupil-dilated world
of marketing communications!

Eyeballs crammed with obsessive-compulsive messages of words, images, slogans and symbols. Internet, TV, video, mobile, print, branded content, native, podcasts, matchbooks, stunts, product placement, voice, sandwich boards… all of it. Every day.

Consumers are tuning out and opting out. The old ways don’t work. And the new ways aren’t much better.

WHICH IS WHY THERE’S NEVER BEEN A BETTER TIME TO BE A CREATIVE IN ADVERTISING.

Welcome to the wide open.

A brave new world where only the meaningful survive. Creativity that isn’t just words and pictures but an experience at every touchpoint. Interaction instead of interruption. A connection from brand to consumer and from consumer to brand. A connection that is felt before it is thought. Believed in before it is acted on. 

This is the new dynamic in marketing and to get there will take everyone, not just creatives.

It requires an agency that is relentless, fearless and egoless, with everyone working as one to be a true partner in helping brands build loyalty, authenticity and passion across all media forms and channels. 

There is NO formula and there are NO shortcuts. It takes constant innovation, listening, trust, trial and error. What is true today may not be true tomorrow. Every client is different. Each problem to solve is different. The “best practice” is to roll up your sleeves and do the work.

IT’S SUCH AN EXCITING TIME TO BE IN ADVERTISING.
