Are Marketers Finally Embracing Bigger Digital Picture?


Clients are embracing the notion that digital is a lot more than a piece of the idea. In many instances, digital has become the biggest piece of the idea, placed squarely at the center of everything a brand does, because it's the piece that gives consumers something to do.

It’s Time to Toss Those ‘Best Practices’ Out the Window


I admit to being as guilty as the next person when it comes to labeling ideas and tips as "best practices." Well, not anymore. Now I'm kicking that habit and doing it without a patch. I'm going cold turkey. And you should, too.

Burger King converte engajamento em moeda

Quando eu falo que os meios digitais concedem oportunidades incomparáveis de engajar um consumidor, é porque existem provas. E estas provas ajudam a compreender as utilidades deste benefício no marketing.

Um ano atrás, o Burger King causou rebuliço nos Estados Unidos depois da campanha “Whopper Sacrifice“, na qual era necessário “sacrificar” amigos do Facebook para conseguir um sanduíche da rede. A polêmica foi tanta que a promo criada pela CP+B teve que ser encerrada.

Agora, na Noruega, o Burger King implantou uma idéia parecida, só que mais “positiva”, convidando os amantes de hambúrguer a pagar pelo novo sanduíche Salsa Hot (vendido por cerca de USD 300) usando uma nova moeda: ‘Likes‘ do Facebook. Ou seja, ao invés de pagar os USD 3,00 pelo sanduíche, a pessoa pode conseguir 10 cliques no botão “Like” na Fan Page do BK (Noruega), o que ajuda a aumentar a reputação da marca na rede social, para adquirir o tal Salsa Hot.

Achei simples e divertido a ponto de gerar o buzz necessário em torno do lançamento do produto. E você, o que achou?
