Interesting addition. Especially in the context of modern day marketing clutter begging for tools like humor to gain consumer attention. A specific category to recognize the best of humor will only inspire marketers around the world to bring out their max creative selves.

Well, that game certainly didn't disappoint. And the market wasn't bad either. It still remains to be seen whether the powers that be (i.e., the casino owners) want Vegas to host another #SuperBowl, but it seems to have been a great day/weekend/week in Sin City. Let's have another great week by starting it with opening nominations for the Nice Guy/Gal Awards. Every Friday, I’ll share nominations for people who have been identified as nice guys (and gals). If you want to nominate someone, just shoot me a private message by 5:00 EDT on Thursday. There are only 3 requirements: 1) you have to be connected to the person you nominate 2) you can only nominate one person per week 3) you can’t nominate yourself 😀   If you want to provide a brief reason for your selection, that’s great, but it’s not a requirement. Let’s recognize people who make a difference simply by being nice. Have a great day, everyone. https://lnkd.in/ei8mg2Qa   #network #sportsbiz #people #niceguy #networking #sportsmarketing

Sometimes, what got you there won't get you where you want to go. Good advice in business, and good advice in going for it on 4th down. So, now the teams are set and I've picked my team for the Big Game. Here's some more good advice: Send in your nomination for this week's Nice Guy/Gal Awards. Every Friday, I’ll share nominations for people who have been identified as nice guys (and gals). If you want to nominate someone, just shoot me a private message by 5:00 EDT this Thursday. There are only 3 requirements: 1) you have to be connected to the person you nominate 2) you can only nominate one person per week 3) you can’t nominate yourself 😀   If you want to provide a brief reason for your selection, that’s great, but it’s not a requirement.

Project of a lifetime. Lesson learned: if you don’t know what to do just write the damn thing. Then write it again. And again. And again. Keep writing while you’re shooting it. Write it while you’re editing it. Write it after it’s out in the world. Write it while you’re writing your Cannes submissions. Just write it.

The 2024 #Oscar nominations just dropped, and I’m not going to lie: as a cinephile, I look forward to this day every year. And every year, I make it a goal to watch all the nominated films. I've ticked off a few so far, but still have quite a bit of ground to cover before the Academy rolls out the red carpet next month. As a lifelong communicator and someone who's been in the #marketing game for a (long) while, today’s announcement has got me thinking: these films are the best of the best in Hollywood, but they’re not just about entertainment; they're masterclasses in creating captivating narratives, sparking emotions, and gripping audiences around the world. It strikes me how similar this is to what we do in marketing, albeit on a less glamorous stage. We weave narratives, evoke emotions, and strive to connect deeply with our audience. So, here's a thought: If films like ‘Oppenheimer,’ ‘Barbie,’ ‘Poor Things,’ or my personal favorites (so far), ‘Rustin,’ and 'The Holdovers' can captivate global audiences, what can we, as marketers, learn from the way these filmmakers bring a story to life? Maybe it's the art of building suspense that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats or the way they bring to life characters (read: brands) that audiences want to root for? Which Oscar-nominated film do you think really nails it when it comes to storytelling?
