Ad Agencies: Who Owns Your Pitch ideas?

Peter · September 16, 2013 · Leave a Comment

crestlogo1There is nothing I loved more during my advertising career than pitching. I loved the chase, the idea that we could come up with really brilliant thinking and work in a compressed timeframe and the camaraderie of the pitch process.

What I didn’t love was the feeling that I was often giving away our big ideas. It sucked.

To dig into the legal aspects of the issue of who owns your pitch ideas, I interviewed Sharon Toerek for Advertising Week’s blog. Sharon is an intellectual property and marketing law attorney who specializes in the advertising industry at Cleveland’s Licata & Toerek.

Read the post on Advertising Week Social Club.

By the way. I’ll see you at Advertising Week, as in next week, right?

I Love It: Pinterest Marketing & SEO

Peter · September 10, 2013 · Leave a Comment

I love SEO, Google and Pinterest. As in using Pinterest for marketing.

I am writing a long piece on advertising agency positioning. It will publish in a couple of weeks in time for Advertising Week New York. I’ll be there and will be writing about my thoughts on the speakers and event vibes for the Advertising Week blog.

While doing my agency positioning research, I decided to do some exploration on the idea of advertising agency of the future. My search yielded the search results charted below. As you can see, my Pinterest page popped high up. As I said above, “I love SEO, Google and Pinterest.” Yes SEO-mavens, I checked using other browsers and emptied my cache.

Advertising Agencies: Follow The Money: Social, Mobile, Video

Peter · August 19, 2013 · Leave a Comment

marketers use of ad platformsFrom the land of “you know” this, comes a reinforcing eMarketer article and graphic showing you where the marketing / advertising budgets are going and you know what’s coming… I say follow the money.

Wow, so many opportunities for your agency to: build out social media, mobile and video expertise; so many opportunities to recalibrate your brand positioning and sales proposition. So, are you? I got to go WTF if you aren’t.

 

I Love Google — It Delivers New Business Leads

Peter · August 16, 2013 · Leave a Comment

Here is a bit more on how much I love SEO and Google. I use Google Alerts and decided to add “advertising agency new business” to my list. I optimize for this term. As it turns out, Google presented one of my blog posts in the results. That’s my post, “Beer For Advertising Agency New Business“, on the bottom. A nice fuzzy new business moment.

My Blog & SEO & Traffic & Incoming Leads

Peter · August 15, 2013 · 1 Comment

A friend asked me what words and phrases were used in the past week to find my website via search engines (mostly Google.)

So, just for SEO edification and to show you that I have my Keyword strategy down, here is what my blog activity looks like. As you might expect, some visits have turned into leads and some into assignments for my business development consultation.

If you are wondering what the term “Talking” is all about… go here.
