I Love America

Having travelled many times to the United States over the years for both business and pleasure, I have to say, that I have fallen in love with it all over again.

My recent travels were meant to be educational, and they were, but they also ensured that I revisited my old stomping grounds, reunited with friends that I hadn't seen in years and had new and exciting experiences that I will never forget.

It does help that the first time I went to the United States the dollar was 57c to every AU$1 dollar. Not ideal. Today, it sits nicely at $1.08 which pleases me no end and has definately aided in bringing back the passion I have for travelling to their great country.

Out with the old, in with the new

build-it-and-they-will-come-smallIt takes a brave person, to throw something away and replace it with something new. Look at your cupboards at home. When was the last time you threw out your favourite jumper, even though it has holes in it?

Sometimes a website can be a bit like that. You get used to seeing it. It brings you in a number of inquiries. Search engine optimisation looks pretty good compared to most of your competitors. So, what makes you throw it all away?

Richer than most

John Rich, one of America’s most successful country music singers and star of US-version of Celebrity Apprentice, was one of the most inspirational people that I met during a recent trip to the United States.

Reaching out to Entrepreneurs

A group of Queensland Entrepreneurs and myself travelled to Nashville 2 weeks ago to see local businesses and innovation in the region.
Dyson-Logo-1-copy-300x149There are some brands that do the ‘right’ thing and other’s that just think commercially. I am very impressed with dyson, a global company that makes hundreds of different products, putting a firm focus on being environmentally conscience.

They actively invest in ensuring that their appliances, and in particular, household appliances have as little impact as possible on the environment by encouraging customers to recycle.

Can you see your brand in this shot? This is a very stylish building products website that is looking for a new brand to go online with! What that means is when you are an agency, and you mock up potential designs for clients, not all choose the one that you love… for various reasons.

Direct marketing is not just about creativity, good writing or an offer – it’s actually a science. Yes, you heard correctly… it is a science.

I have seen some amazing direct marketing campaigns and currently, in the big corporation space, NAB are doing a sensational job or luring consumers to change banks because they have “broken up” with the other banks.
