Standing out from the crowd…can take a mighty brain.

Tuesday, October 12th, 2010

A coaching client of mine, Helen Joy from Right Brain Genius, wanted to really stand out from the crowd – so she figured the best way to do it was driving down the road. The picture below shows her freshly painted and signed Right Brain Mobeele – and clearly it stands out. To me this is the key to marketing in such a cluttered and congested world – stand out or get out. Anyway, perhaps this will inspire you to get your car sign written in a wild way. Believe me – people will talk about it.

This is a doozy. The concepts of reinvention, staying relevant, evolution and so much more are all covered here. Who would have thought we could learn so much from the Rolling Stones?

The new Tourism Queensland Campaign

Wednesday, September 29th, 2010

Tourism Queensland has just launched their latest campaign and as always, there are mixed opinions on all fronts. Personally I like it. The “power statement” is “Where Australia shines”, and the imagery certainly covers most corners of Queensland. It is energetic, outdoors and wet. My only constructive criticism would be to ask the question – does it appeal to people who don’t want to jump off of boats, swing through rainforest canopies, scuba dive, white water raft and about a million other outdoor and active things to do in Queensland? Perhaps more of the cultural features of Queensland could be featured, but it is hard to put everything into a 60 second commercial and the reality is that people who come to Queensland come because of the natural beauty, the climate and endless list of things to see and do. So based on this, I think the campaign deserve two thumbs up. But there will be plenty of knockers, no doubt.

What exactly is BRANDING and how do you do it?

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

This is a very big question. I think many people, including some professional marketing people, have very little idea as to what branding actually means. The following presentation is the most simple, logical and easy to understand explanation that I have seen so far. It is as appropriate for small businesses as it is for large corporations and it not only covers what branding is and why it is so important, but also where most organisations get it wrong. This branding presentation was developed by Marty Neumeier.
