Creative Exodus in Adland: It’s Just Not ‘Fun’ Anymore


NEW YORK (AdAge.com) — "You're nobody's bitch." That might as well be the ad business' motto in 2010. Since the beginning of the year, a veritable Cannes jury worth of senior creative talent has shrugged off the leashes of big agency networks for their own start-ups or for creative pursuits outside the ad industry. Longtime agency watchers will say this kind of creative churn has always been part of agency life, but to dismiss the trend as part of some cycle is ignoring some key questions that agencies need to answer.

Turkish Airlines: Social Trippin

Social Trippin'

View more presentations from Turkish Airlines.

Eu, que trabalho com comunicação há alguns anos, percebo que, a cada dia que passa, os anunciantes se mostram mais interessados em redes sociais. E as dúvidas do tipo: quando, quanto e como investir, são só algumas delas.

As respostas podem ser imediatas ou não. Mas não importa. O que mais importa, para os anunciantes, é a enorme necessidade em ter que se aproximar dos seus clientes e consumidores através destes pontos de contato, mais democráticos e interativos.

Quem teve uma boa ideia, partindo da premissa de estar (obrigatoriamente) antenada com tudo o que diz respeito às redes sociais, foi a Turkish Airlines, a maior e mais conhecida companhia aérea da Turquia.

Há algum tempo, a empresa virou referência ao começar a investir na criação de perfis em várias redes sociais, e promoções difundidas nestes perfis. Mas não era isso que bastava para a Turkish Airlines ficar satisfeita. Foi então que a empresa decidiu dar início ao Social Trippin, que é nada menos do que um evento para debater as inovações e as tendências das redes e mídias sociais como plataformas de comunicação e relacionamento.
O Social Trippin ocorre quatro vezes por ano, e acontece em cidades destino onde a companhia aérea opera. Londres e Berlin, por exemplo, já sediaram suas edições.

Especialistas de várias áreas, programadores, publicitários, blogueiros e jornalistas estão sempre entre os convidados. Mas quem realmente ganha com o evento são os colaboradores da Turkish, que aprendem e compartilham conhecimentos, durante o encontro. Além de servir como uma ferramenta para melhorar a vivência dos colaboradores com as redes sociais, o Social Trippin colabora para instituir uma sólida política interna de uso das redes sociais, o que hoje é muito comum no universo corporativo.
