“Advertising 2.0”: it makes me happy

Category:Headline Tags : 

Everybody hates commercials. There’s no television show I can put on without first having to see commercials. But why are these commercials so annoying? After all they are important. They pay for the programs and make sure we want to buy what we buy. After all, would you have bought that Samsung tv if Samsung hadn’t advertised for it?

There is a change going on though. People don’t want to be ‘forced’ to waych commercials. They want to choose if and when they watch them. Therefore commercials on YouTube are watched more often. Besides that, commercials have to be a lot more creative.

The video I found on YouTube is in my opinion a great example of ‘advertising 2.0’. This kind of commercial makes me happy. T-Mobile is giving the right example. It brings people together to do a fun thing (in this case singing) and make the ‘brand’ T-Mobile a fun brand.

It’s not the first time T-Mobile has done this. Earlier this year they did a probably even better one, with dancing.

Category:UEFA Tags : 

EK-acties: www.oranjeshirtjes.nlThe amount of websites that try to take advantage of the European Championships is immense. And everybody wants to earn money. And why not. Sometimes there are a couple where you automatically get a good feeling. That was the case with the website www.oranjeshirtjes.nl. Maybe it is because I have two small children myself, but the idea speaks to me.

EC Specials: Holland Casino and Heineken are merchandising

Category:UEFA Tags : 

EK acties - EC Specials: Holland Casino & HeinekenThat YouTube is a good marketing tool, we had already identified. The advertisements that you can see on television are often viewed better, longer and more often than on the television itself. That’s also the case with this one by Holland Casino in cooperation with Heineken. This commercial focusses on the merchandising around the European Championships. Well found and it gives a good picture of the ‘madness’ that is hanging around the EC. The video is now viewed already almost 3000 times on YouTube…
