What is Southern Comfort?

4af4453ce18f0“The main focus of this campaign is to really cement the idea that Southern Comfort is a way to tie back into New Orleans, more so as a vibe and a spirit versus a more subtle brand DNA that was always talked about internally but not necessarily communicated to consumers,” said Lena DerOhannessian, Southern Comfort’s U.S. marketing director.

DerOhannessian said the brand is taking advantage of a tremendous opportunity to connect with its target audience.

“There is a very flexible structure in the online space that allows us to listen to [consumers] and give them the opportunity to speak to us in regards to the brand,” she said. “It’s just an immeasurable benefit.”

The spots are airing now on Hulu, Break.com, CBS.com, Comedy.com, Fox.com, FX.com, MyDamnChannel.com, NBC.com, Playboy.com, TheFader.com, and Pitchfork.tv, in addition to Southern Comfort’s Facebook fan page.

Because most already frequent these sites for their favorite shows, you’re sure to find out just what Southern Comfort is. Before you do, make sure to fix yourself a SoCo and Coke with lime.

Aplicativo de iPhone do The Economist vai ajudar alunos a encontrar um curso de MBA mais adequado

the-economist-app.jpg

Hora de atualizar o benchmark, pois o “boom” dos aplicativos está só começando.

Muitos exemplos vocês já viram aqui no blog. São marcas de todos os setores e com as mais diferentes filosofias. Não importa, todo mundo quer marcar presença no mobile.

Em busca de sua maior integração com os meios digitais, a mundialmente respeitada revista de economia e negócios, The Economist, anunciou que vai lançar seu primeiro aplicativo de iPhone.

O aplicativo, voltado exclusivamente para estudantes, permitirá baixar o ranking anual de cursos de MBA internacionais do The Economist, e cruzar dados para encontrar o melhor curso adaptado às suas exigências pessoais.

Diferente da grande maioria dos aplicativos desenvolvidos para veículos de comunicação e notícias, este, do The Economist, não será contextualizado em cima de uma plataforma móvel de notícias RSS.

Por falar nisso, a crescente tendência de ler notícias em gadgets foi tema da 7ª Conferência de Publicações Digitais da WAN/IFRA (Associação Mundial de Jornais e Empresas de Conteúdo), na quarta-feira, dia 4, em Barcelona.

A presidente da companhia inglesa Stradbroke Advisors Investments (especializada em startup de empresas virtuais na Europa), Inmaculada Martinez, esquentou o debate. Ela acredita que o iPhone vencerá a disputa com o novo Kindle da Amazon na difusão de conteúdos jornalísticos porque simplesmente as pessoas não querem mais um gadget. Eu acho que ainda é muito cedo para falar alguma coisa neste nível. Mas, na minha humilde opinião, acho que os smartphones ainda são os melhores meios para se atualizar quando estamos longe de um computador.

New Insurance Policies Help Agencies Control Ad-Production Costs

NEW YORK (AdAge.com) — Dianne Richter, an ad agency veteran who's clocked time in the broadcast departments of shops such as JWT, Y&R and Saatchi & Saatchi, found herself on a nightmare of a commercial shoot a few years ago. While driving to location, police had blocked the production team's route for several hours after a suicide jumper perched himself on a bridge. Quick thinking saved the commercial, but those last-minute changes came at a steep cost to the client. Now broader protections for shoots are being offered under recent changes in the U.S. insurance market.
