Saying things to people

We are in the era of co-creation

People choose to participate with our ideas on their own terms – we must be

prepared for them to be adapted, adopted and passed on before they can be fully

realised

The consumer becomes the (co-) owner of the brand

Consumers ---> Loyal consumers ---> advocates ---> inspirational consumers

To mobilise people you need emotion

“The essential difference between emotion and reason is that emotion leads to action while reason leads to conclusions.”

Social media = worth of mouth that you have to earn

ROI will also be determined by how contagious an idea becomes

It’s no longer about numbers of impressions you’ve made, but the

amount of fans you’ve created

Our role is to fuel conversations

Respect the look & feel & authenticity of the medium (and not necessary

the look & feel of the brand)

Every touch point tells a part of the storyso that it’s amplified by word-of-mouth

Social media = be open, honest & spontaneous
