Yes the platforms want to maximise usage and care less (or not at all) about building our brands. They also don’t know much about building brands. That’s on us. But it’s on us to get a balance as we have to use them these days.

Lovely stuff. Looking forward to reading. At my kids’ school people who make connections between things like this are called ‘linking lions’…suspect you are one of those.

There's a fundamental tension facing marketers today: brands need consistency and repetition, but the platforms tell them they need loads of fresh new content. My latest in @marketingweek.bsky.social on brand building in the age of creative fragmentation. www.marketingweek.com/brand-buildi...

Brand building must adapt to the age of creative fragmentation
Brands today have to balance competing needs: more digital content to drive engagement, but also more consistency to drive long-term effectiveness.

‘Big Advertising’ needs to think small. It’s been a big week for Big Advertising. But advertising today is a myriad of smaller things, not just a few big things. First part of a two part case for change. www.marketingweek.com/tom-roach-bi...

‘Big Advertising’ needs to think small
Advertising today is a myriad of smaller things, not just a few big things, and the ad industry needs to more fully embrace this reality or continue to be disintermediated.

A rare example of a ‘Find your X Find your Y’. You’d get double points on ad twitter c2018/19 if you saw one of these in the wild.

It pleases me that the Bluesky logo is shaped like an X but softer, warmer, less testosterone.

What a strange world we live in, where you can feel a sense of nostalgia for a website, and want to sign up to another website to try and satisfy it.
