Enjoyed the commercial and am looking forward to reading more from you.<br /><br />I especially identify with the idea of storytelling as a tool for provoking thought, not necessarily agreement.<br /><br />Ciao from Oz.Darryl Halsehttp://www.halsed.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9170152.post-19835021481168106242009-04-30T00:18:00.000+12:002009-04-30T00:18:00.000+12:00So true.

Even the common messages like "great deals today only" or "works better than the rest" have become naught but background noise to the jilted consumer.<br /><br />As advertising merges ever more with marketing, this is a great time to hit reset for us marketers.<br /><br />Perhaps it's time to let the consumer tell the story, like they are, in Social Media?Webconomisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18102671283482739490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9170152.post-33307198127882155812009-04-30T00:17:00.000+12:002009-04-30T00:17:00.000+12:00Always loved that ad.

Not much has changed since it was written 20 years ago. Which is surprising really, given how much writing there is on the internet.Stanley Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12367378474458514085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9170152.post-62108841589980476752009-04-26T04:52:00.000+12:002009-04-26T04:52:00.000+12:001st - I am extremely impressed that you have kept ...1st - I am extremely impressed that you have kept this article for so long.<br /><br />2nd - I hope that you are right about the reset button. I don't know how many time I have sat and watched or read a commercial and been dumbfounded at the lack of skill in writing or emotional pull. The old days of advertising were so much better, and well written! <br /><br />Thanks for the great article, and sharing such an interesting old article!Kirsten Wrighthttp://www.wrightcreativity.comnoreply@blogger.com
