Thought-Starters
How can you think more simply about the qualities that set
your brand apart in the marketplace? !
In what mediums and environments can you best illustrate
those qualities to drive experiences that feel special and inspire
awe?!

10. Tech Working For Us
It’s not about what people can do with tech, but what technology can do
for people. Brands are forming deep relationships with consumers by
using tech to power new ways for consumers to monitor, educate,
enliven, protect, give and repeat. !

What are your headlining brand promises, and what are new
ways you can deliver them to build trust and appreciation for
your mission? !
What senses or routines does your brand seek to affect, and
how can technology equip you to enhance those existing
experiences?!

Shuffling the science, numbers or insight from under the hood
to the forefront of campaigns, brands that used data as their
creative – not only to drive it -- advanced the game.!

Thought-Starters
How can you lift the veil on your brand’s inner workings to
create a meaningful consumer experience?!
What are the data points you have used as internal insights,
and how can they help consumers understand their part in your
story?!

22. Gaming the System
For all of time, brands have sought to establish emotional connections
with consumers. Now, brands are getting crafty to outsmart the system
and tug at hearts and heads. Those doing it best create value-based
stakes that transform consumers into advocates.!

approach, brands are winning consumer loyalty by supplying “power to
the person” opportunities. !
