Afinal, quem precisa de controles quando você pode usar instruções muitas vezes […]

Snapchat Discover to Add Mashable, Limit Sponsorship Takeovers


For the second time since rolling out Discover in January, Snapchat is getting ready to shake up its publisher portal’s roster.

Snapchat will soon add a Discover channel for Mashable to distribute its articles and videos to the mobile app’s youth-heavy audience, according to people familiar with the matter. Vox Media’s Vox.com will also be getting a Discover channel, said one person. It’s unclear which existing Discover publishers may be replaced with Mashable and Vox or how soon the additions will take place.

Representatives for Snapchat, Mashable and Vox Media declined to comment on the pending additions. Vox Media-owned Re/code reported in late July that Vox.com was in talks to join Discover.

TV Analytics Firm Tries a Radical Approach to Market Itself: TV


Of the many ways ad agencies and research firms pitch themselves, actually buying ads in the media they use or measure for clients is rare — particularly TV. But in a possibly unprecedented example of a marketing-services firm putting its money where its mouth is — or vice versa — analytics firm C3Metrics is running direct-response TV ads on entertainment and sports programming and winning attention from clients and new business as a result.

Part of what makes the campaign noticeable is the proposition — a free trial of C3Metrics analytics services for attributing sales lift from TV ads up to 50 brands monthly with TV budgets of at least $5 million. (It’s not limited to one per company, as each brand at a behemoth like Procter & Gamble Co. would qualify separately.) The campaign has attracted enough interest since it began at low media levels in September that the firm is now putting $250,000 behind it monthly, said Chief Operating Officer Jeff Greenfield.

The strategy sprang from discussions between Mr. Greenfield and C3Metrics CEO Mark Hughes, who previously founded Half.com, an online retailer perhaps best known for getting Halfway, Ore., to change its name to Half.com, Ore. Within six months of the 1999 publicity stunt, eBay bought Half.com for $300 million.

Chinese Marketers Shift Ad Budgets From Mass Media to Content


Media costs have been soaring for years in China, even as advertisers face greater restrictions from government regulators on how and when they can use mass media.

One of those local players, Yili, a mindshare client, bankrolled the third season of “Dad, Where Are We Going” for $48 million, not long after Yili went to Hollywood for a product placement deal in “Transformers: Dark of the Moon.” Yili paid even more, about $78 million, for the fourth season, according to WPP’s Kantar.

Other deals include beverage giant JiaDuoBao’s $40 million investment in the third season of “Voice of China,” cosmetics maker Han Beam’s $37 million deal for “If You Are the One,” and detergent marketer Guangzhou Liby Enterprise Group, which backed the second season of “I Am a Singer” for $37 million, and the third season for $47 million.

CMOs, Meet Your New Best Friend: The CHRO


Consider this scenario: The CMO creates a brand strategy and positioning, and the marketing team works vigorously to infuse the company’s vision, mission and voice throughout every point of communication — website, advertising, product collateral, press messaging, etc. At some point, the head of human resources catches wind, and given today’s massive talent war, wants marketing to create materials for employee recruiting, retention and engagement — infusing the company’s unified vision into all HR initiatives and ensuring complete alignment.

Now turn that around. A human resources lead (commonly called the chief human resources officer in larger companies) completes the annual resource planning process. Again, facing a highly competitive talent environment, which is undoubtedly impacting both recruiting and retention, the CHRO crafts a comprehensive, but independent business-to-employee (B2E) strategy. However, at some point, the marketing folks catch wind and the HR initiatives are quickly retooled and shoehorned to fit the company’s vision as best as possible, so as not to appear disjointed.

Does any of this sound familiar?
