This great ad promoting BC was launched for the 2010 Olympics and features some breathtaking scenery and endorsements by well known Canadian actors and musicians like Michael J. Fox, Tom Petty, and Sarah McLachlan.  I’m suprised Nelly Futado and Bryan Adams weren’t part of it!

Makes you feel good about living in this truly beautiful province!

The only thing missing in my opinion is a call to action!

For a complete list of the actors and celebs scroll down.

The New Year is approaching and in typical New Year’s fashion there are alot of countdowns on Radio, TV, and of course the Internet.   Perhaps it’s time to see about incorporating some type of year-end countdown in your Marketing?   What depends entirely on the type of business you’re in.

Here is a funny you tube compilations, be sure to scroll down for today’s marketing tip!

When it comes to countdowns you’ll want to think of something clever that just makes sense.    For example, if you’re in the Laser Rejuvenation Business, how about the Top 10 Make Overs with before and after pictures.

Today I have a story to share…

A small boy was walking along a beach at low tide, where countless thousands of small sea creatures, having been washed up, were stranded and doomed to perish. A man watched as the boy picked up individual creatures and took them back into the water.

“I can see you’re being very kind,” said the watching man, “But there must be a million of them; it can’t possibly make any difference.”

Returning from the water’s edge, the boy said, “It will for that one.”

Same goes for your Marketing Efforts.
One step at a time.  It makes a difference!

TGIF, enjoy your Friday with this funny Mercedes commercial.  Sex has and will continue to sell.  And big companies will continue to spend huge advertising dollars for creativity.   Funny Yes.  Effective? Unlikely.   Don’t get tempted to try this type of fluffly ad for your small business.   You’ll want to stick to keeping it real and rather than spending lots of dollars on something fluffy and creative, focus on delivering a powerful marketing message that delivers what marketing should, Results!
