Making Ben&Jerry's and B&R brands, uh, scream!
Their ice cream varieties may not be plain and simple, but the idea was and is:  yesterday was Ben & Jerry’s moment in the ice cream sunshine with freebies, today B&R answers with 31-cent scoops and $100K to a firefighters foundation that assists families of the fallen.  Gotta give the feel-good edge to B&R here, but as a brand-building promotion, you really can’t beat either one.   They scream.  B & J build on their populist brand promise while B&R does good while doing well.  Makes me wish I was more of an ice-cream fanatic.  Love the brands.  One mo’ thing:  this is a promo that’s made for the digital culture: the Internet lights the fuse to quick-strike promotions.  Made to order just like a custom cone.

What record labels and MySpace are teaching us about marketing to the digital culture
It’s not just the economy, stupid.  And it’s not just the digital economy, stupid.  It’s the whole digital culture.What does this have to do with marketing and branding?  Just about everything.  Why?  Because marketers fail whenever they disable the kind... Continue Reading
