Is the Super Bowl a world-class sports event with cool commercials – or a showcase for the most über-awesome ads of the year with a little football? Not surprisingly, I’d say the latter, and this year’s commercials lived up to that reputation and more.
Luckily, I got an amazing opportunity to share my thoughts on this when I was invited to appear on Fox 13’s Good Day Tampa Bay and talk with Russell Rhodes on the best and worst commercials from this year’s big game, and I’m excited to share some here. And I also have some highlights from our first ..read more

Maybe it’s the change with the cooler temperatures that has me in the spirit. Or maybe it’s the Apple Music playlist that’s already on shuffle with my favorite holiday jazz songs, from greats like Vince Guaraldi, Frank Sinatra and Nat King Cole. Whatever the reason, the holiday season is here and now for me.
So as a marketer and admirer of the way that brands shape our culture, I have to ask, do you find yourself in awe of the way some brands can connect with us this time of the year? You know, those brands that you come to expect great creative f ..read more

The holiday season is here, and along with those old decorations we pull out and dust off are those shopworn clichés that we uncover and flood our language with each December.

Clichés are usually only effective if they can be used with a fresh twist or in an ironic tone. What’s more, one of the worst things about clichés is that by falling back on them we don’t stretch our cr ..read more

Early last year, Google said it would end support for cookies in Chrome by early 2022, “once it figured out how to address the needs of users, publishers, and advertisers, and come up with tools to mitigate workarounds.” Most recently, the company has announced that it will now phase out support for third-party cookies beginning in mid-2023 and continuing through the end of the year, if that timing sticks.
With whatever timeline that Google ultimately decides on, it promises to have challenges for the way that advertisers target consumers online once cookies are p ..read more
