Nadat media jaren uit de reclamebureaus weg is gesaneerd, heeft SUE Amsterdam besloten de media expertise weer in het bureau op te nemen. De belangrijkste reden hiervoor is de accountability van campagnes. Volgens managing director Astrid Groenewegen: ‘In digitaal hoef je niet achteraf te hopen of je campagne heeft gewerkt, je kunt het tijdens het [...]

Vorige week stond in het NRC dat de bonussen voor topmanagers van de banken nog steeds aan het stijgen zijn, zelfs nu de banken minder winst en omzet halen. En dat terwijl gewone werknemers flink aan het inbinden zijn. Behavioral economist Dan Ariely vertelde een tijdje terug in een interview dat deze totale ontsporing het [...]

Eén van de boeken die me vorig jaar het meest beïnvloed heeft is “The Lean Startup” van Eric Ries. The Lean startup onderzoekt hoe succesvolle startups zich onderscheiden van minder succesvolle. Ries vraagt zich af hoe het komt dat zoveel startups falen. En hoe het komt dat ze pas ontdekken dat ze niet levensvatbaar zijn [...]

Onlangs voorspelde Salem Samhoud dat door de crisis bureaus steeds meer gedwongen worden om waarde toe te voegen. Zijn voorspelling werd concreter. Volgens hem is er amper toekomst meer voor account binnen bureaus, omdat zij de minst toegevoegde waarde leveren. Een stelling die je kunt betwisten op de waarheid ervan, maar dit is niet het [...]

(Dit is een eerste post in een serie blogposts met als titel “rethinking advertising” over onze eigen transformatie van een digitaal denkend bureau naar het reclamebureau van de toekomst). In 2012 hebben we met SUE tot vervelens toe het verhaal “design eats advertising for breakfast” verteld. (o.a. op TedxDelft (video), Dutch Design Week (video) en [...]

Niek, onze digital producer, is naast fulltime geek ook parttime DJ. Hij weet dus van wanten. Geniet van deze 10 platen die wat ons betreft perfect zijn om 2012 spacend mee af te sluiten. Een primeur deze zomer: deephouse festivalhits die een grote hit worden met als klap op de vuurpijl “One day / Reckoning [...]

De ‘ik’ in de titel is Jill. Jill is onze copywriter en kent de donkere krochten van het internet. Ze deelt die overigens niet met iedereen. ‘Het zijn mijn geheime schatten en ze gaan me aan mijn hart. Wees er voorzichtig mee.’ Veel plezier dus. 1.

It used to be simple. Producer had a product. Product was not that different from other products on a functional level. Advertising people came in and turned product into a brand. Giving the product an aura of specialness that helped marketers sleep tight mumbling happily ‘intangible emotional benefits’. But then things got more complicated. There [...]

Sometimes people ask me what do you do?And I automatically respond: I am in advertising. That’s easy for people to grasp. But we all know that it is not true. That it shouldn’t be true. We should all respond: I am in the influence business. But that sounds not very family-birthday-talk-friendly does it? But let’s [...]

If you don’t mind I will barge right into the matter of things. And the matter is my argument that the only good idea is an executed idea. I think it is time that we start to realize and foremost recognize the fact that campaigns that have made a difference are actually ideas that were [...]

Beste meneer Verhagen, Beste meneer Rutte, Gisteren keerde mijn maag bij het zien van het perverse spel dat Geert Wilders voor de camera speelde. Ik kan mijn walging voor deze manipulatieve prietpraat niet onder stoelen of banking stoppen. De twee pijlers van zijn discours konden haast niet platter en populistischer: 1. Die van Brussel (Europa) [...]
