Gurus Should Spend Less Time Talking, More Time Listening

April 19 saw the passing of perhaps the only non-east Indian who could rightfully call himself a guru with a straight face. Keith Elam's death also got me thinking about all the other so-called gurus out here.

The Social-Media Style Guide


A brand's style guide is more important than ever, and it is in dire need of innovation in order to humanize a brand voice, something that people can truly connect to online and offline. We need to revisit our core and modernize our story, how we present it and how we intend to be perceived, setting the tone for engagement and resulting activity.

Stealthy Cleavage Covers – The Cami Secret is Perfect for Busty Businesswomen (VIDEO)

Pringles: Help the Overshares

Embora seja uma marca com bons atributos para poder ousar no marketing, a Pringles é uma marca que não tem muito costume de inovar na comunicação. Mas, dessa vez, nos Estados Unidos, ela protagoniza uma inteligente campanha digital: Help the Overshares.

Todos nós, que vivenciamos as mídias sociais, sabemos que existe muita gente (amigos, inclusive) que abusa e compartilha coisa demais, principalmente aquilo que é desnecessário e irrelevante.

Pensando nisso, foi desenvolvido um botão para Facebook, que eles, da Pringles, chamaram de “overshare” – um alerta a esses colegas chatos e desocupados.

No site da campanha a pessoa consegue baixar o botão “overshare” para o Facebook (ele ficará ao lado do botão de comentar as atividades dos amigos). Assim, é possível avisar os “malas” que eles estão exagerando no compartilhamento e uso da rede social.

Entre um aviso e outro, dá para criar camisetas com frases irônicas, além da possibilidade de enviar um manual virtual com dicas como: “pensar antes de digitar”, “arrumar coisas legais para fazer”, enfim.

A simpatia pela marca é tão grande, que a página oficial da Pringles no Facebook já conta com mais de 3 milhões de fãs.
