Dannon reúne trio masculino de Full House em comercial do Super Bowl

Há muitos e muitos anos, em uma galáxia não muito distante… peraí, não é isso. Na verdade, foi aqui pelo planeta Terra mesmo que no final dos anos 1980 chegava à tevê a série Full House (aqui no Brasil chamada de Três é Demais). Foram oito temporadas que têm garantido mais de 20 anos de reprises, a fama e fortuna das gêmeas Ashley e Mary-Kate Olsen e… um comercial no Super Bowl 48, é claro.

A Dannon resolveu reunir o trio masculino de protagonistas – John Stamos, Bob Saget e Dave Coulier em um filme que imagina como seria se Jesse, Danny e Joey ainda dividissem o mesmo teto…

Se a intenção era criar algo engraçadinho, tenho dúvidas se o objetivo foi atingido. Na verdade, é meio deprê pensar que em quase 20 anos a vida desses personagens não evoluiu, muito pelo contrário. Enfim…

Hearst’s New Health Division Is a Departure from Magazines and TV


Hearst Corporation, whose holdings include Cosmopolitan magazine and a stake in ESPN, is continuing its push into healthcare and creating a division called Hearst Health.

The unit consists of five healthcare-information companies, as well as an innovation lab and venture fund with a commitment to invest $75 million in startups in the space and a second round of $75 million planned for the future, according to the company.

Hearst already owns or holds a majority stake in the division’s companies, but their lack of a unified brand until now had created challenges when explaining Hearst’s healthcare initiatives to potential clients and employees, executives said..

The Better Product Always Wins — And Other Marketing Myths


It’s been my experience that most chief executives pay lip service to marketing and place their bets on innovation.

Sure, they approve modest marketing budgets because they might look foolish if they didn’t. But what really drives them is the conviction that “The better product always wins in the marketplace.”

If you believe that, then marketing is an ego-building, waste of money. And deep-down, I think many CEOs do believe that marketing, and especially advertising, is an ego-building, waste of money.

Could Your Data Firm Be the Next NSA Contractor?


Data could be the next collaborative corporate-government frontier.

During his January 17 speech explaining the National Security Agency’s surveillance program, which is reliant on obtaining massive amounts of phone call data, President Barack Obama ordered the establishment of a “mechanism” that “preserves the capabilities we need without the government holding this bulk meta-data.”

Any decisions on how such a data-management operation would proceed are preliminary. One concept floated by a federal review board that evaluated the NSA program would be for a third party to store data on behalf of the NSA. Before discussing the concept, the President prefaced it with an understatement: “This will not be simple.”

Radio Shack Breaks Campaign In Support of New Positioning


In its latest brand-positioning shift, struggling consumer electronics retailer Radio Shack Corp. is emphasizing one of its longtime, core tenets: customer service.

A new national advertising campaign called “Do It Together,” from Austin, Texas-based GSD&M, aims to show how Radio Shack and consumers can collaborate to solve technological problems like connecting today’s many devices, said Jennifer Warren, the retailer’s chief marketing officer since April. Four 15-to-30 second ads, plus two more ads targeted specifically to the Hispanic market, will roll out beginning in early February during prime time and sporting events; radio, print, digital, social and in-store marketing will support the campaign. The new ads will invoke a full tagline: “It can be done, when we do it together.”

Ms. Warren said she realized after visiting multiple Radio Shack stores that consumers looked to the retailer as a place to help solve their technology-related problems, as opposed to a place to engage and play with equipment. “We identified this gap between what our customers and prospective customers believe can be done through technology and the knowledge to actually go and get it done,” she said.
