I have been screaming this from rooftops for the past decade. Specially in B2B marketing. 95% of brands are still afraid to explore beyond their old standard, but let me tell you something, your buyer is a human, that will see on a daily basis over 20-50 ads through his socials, newsfeeds and sites. Most of those ads will say nothing to the buyer. Your 50% off ad? He has seen 10 of those before arriving at yours. Another demo video? Oh, your competitors already did one before he even got to yours. Does he remember it? Heck no. It all goes into the void. He won't even register the ad. You know what he will register? Humor. Heart. Emotions. Humaniyu. Something that will make him laugh, cry. Something that will make him relate. Relate is the keyword. And most important: remember. You might be wary of what I am saying. But I have been doing exactly that for a lot of companies throughout the years and brands. And the impact has always been succesful. A great example in the Print Industry is Enfocus. Some might be sceptical, others might find it weird. But the result is there. I have heard from several customers more about Print Hard than about the latest update of PitStop. I have heard about characters we created in campaigns more often than any promo we ever did. Why does it work? Because everyone wants to belong. To be part of something awesome. And that is what I am continously fighting for. Making your brand awesome. But beware, the most difficult thing is to remain genuine. You can add a piano and a soft voice to create emotions but if it doesn't come from rhe right place, it will just go into the void.

ICYMI: Drumroll please, for the results of the 2023 Youth Theatre in Scotland Sector Review, the national survey that helps us identify how we’re all developing as an overall youth theatre sector, and how we can develop further. Findings from the research provide a snapshot of youth theatre provision in Scotland in 2023 and how it compares it to the sector in 2015 and 2020. The findings help YTAS to capture the big picture, and sharpen the focus of our work. Read the full report and our findings over at https://buff.ly/4atAU5a

This (post ⬇️) shines a light on a really important aspect of the work of theatres…over 600 people came to Colwyn Bay today to watch the pantomime. The economic multiplier impacts (generated by theatre audiences, casts and technical teams) are huge. According to a SOLT / UK Theatre report in October: A recent study conducted on behalf of SOLT & UK Theatre suggests that the UK theatre sector generates £2.39bn GVA and supports 205,000 workers. This is made up of £1bn of direct turnover in the UK theatre sector, generating £1.3bn worth of turnover in the broader economy. #theatre

I am a simple surgeon. I don’t often change my settings and I have hardly ever changed phaco machines. So I asked Erik Mertens an important question of whether I need to learn and understand more about fluidics to get the most out of the new Sophi phaco machine with all its options.
