Just wrote the welcome message for our DiMassimo Goldstein employee Intranet. Thought I’d share:
Welcome to the Growth Agency Network.
If you only remember three words, remember these: EVERY TOUCHPOINT MATTERS
In the center of you there is a double helix of DNA that sets in motion who you become. Clip a fingernail and this same code is there.
In the center of every experience is the truth of the brand. If the reception desk is boring, the brand is boring. If the invoice has no charm, the brand has no charm.
An inspiring receipt. A stylish notepad. A creative collection letter. A box with spots. A one-page owners manual.
Empires have been built on such small things as these.
If it is, it is a part of the brand.
Brand. Driven. Growth. That’s four, five and six. That’s how we do it.
Banner, hang-tag, balloon. Truck to television commercial. If we can do it, we can make it deliver the brand.
Here we tend to these individuals we call brands. We grow and evolve them. And we can tell you what is in the fingernail, before you clip it. (more…)

1. Campaign Highlight: Leading up to The Walking Dead premiere, Toronto agency Leo Burnett set up eight foot tall “walker hands” in the middle of Union Station. Each day a decaying finger was knocked off counting down to the season premiere. Commuters could take pictures with the hands, tweet #TWDFeb10, and be entered to win one of the gross zombie fingers. They also had chained “walkers” attached to the countdown clock with giveaway tshirts ALMOST within arms reach. Read the full story here: Walking Dead’s Gruesome Countdown
2. Burger King’s Twitter account was hacked on Monday with the name and avatar replaced with McDonald’s. While the situation seems terrifying for any brand team/agency, the account also gained 5,000 new followers in 30 minutes and generated a ton of buzz: reactions to Burger King Twitter Hack. While not all mentions were positive about BK, there are some speculating that this could wind up helping Burger King more in the end. What do you think?

This year’s Super Bowl commercials featured rambunctious geriatrics, cross-dressing husbands and Jamaicans from Minnesota. But mascots, once a staple of the advertising world, were almost completely absent from the night’s proceedings.

When you review design presentations, do you feel a thrill?
Do you get truly excited by the choices you have in front of you?
You deserve to see work that excites you, and a design team that brings you work so good, it’s hard to choose.

Dogs, Babies, Horses, Goats, Funny Old People, Skin, Stars, Romance, Humor, Patriotism.
Judging from this year’s Super Bowl spots, the surface of advertising doesn’t change much. The old saw about Dogs and Babies still applies. When Doritos brings in crowd sourcing, it works best when there are men in dresses or greedy goats. When Coke tries to go social audience participation, it falls flat due to the lack or poor use of any of the above.

This was a war-time economy sort of Super Bowl. Unabashedly patriotic.
Or perhaps this was a post-war sort of Super Bowl. Optimistic. Resurgent.
Maybe it was a bit of both.
We saw the American car companies come back and identify themselves with other severely tested and ultimately triumphant swaths of American culture and myth. Chrysler went the furthest here, with a partnership with the USO and Oprah, and a highly emotional tribute to military heroes (the troops) that attacked the heart strings full force and gave no quarter. Trumping even that was Dodge RAM’s ode to the spirit of the American Farmer, with a resurrected Paul Harvey VO, reading the extraordinary classic piece of Americana, “For God Made A Farmer.” Oprah may be a Goddess, but she is merely an aspiring voiceover actor next to Paul Harvey.
