Mobile UK more willing to pay for online content than ever
11 June 2013, 1:47PM

Traditional media owners are set to profit from multiscreen viewing and smartphone ownership if the right pricing models are adopted, is the rather heartening message from a KPMG study this month. In the advisory firm's Media And Entertainment Barometer study, the decades old assumption that people have become too accustomed to free content online to start paying, is challenged.

The not so secret life of an e-commerce entreprenueur continues…

Reading The Economist last year my attention was grabbed by these words of wonder from Aileen Lee, a partner at venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins:

Apple's losing its global bite? Building brand momentum behind a successful emerging market handset
11 June 2013, 9:30AM

Nokia's long lasting smartphoneStories have been appearing left, right and centre over the past week or so about Mozilla's plans to launch a smartphone specifically designed for emerging markets. This of course is not the first major brand who has been exploring how to successfully venture into emerging markets this year. The mobile community's attention turned to Nokia as they ran a launch announcement about Asha501 (pictured) and questions were even asked as to how the functionality of the new Samsung Galaxy S4 would marry with what consumers in emerging markets are looking for.

A Lick is the new Facebook Like - will it catch on?
11 June 2013, 8:21AM

I wrote recently about how Facebook is falling out of favour with its young-adult audience, who see it more as a necessary part of modern living rather than something they can't get enough of. However, companies and brands aren't going to give up that easily, and are coming up with ever more inventive ways to attempt to engage with this audience.

It turns out that them marketers aren’t so stupid in paying celebrities £££ to endorse their products. A recent survey of over a hundred people aged between 20 and 30 quizzed them about their feelings about celebrity endorsements and 60 per cent said they think that it had an impact on their purchasing behaviour.

Omnichannel or Omnishambles?
10 June 2013, 12:48PM

O2 twitterOmnichannel is a slightly unfortunate name for a piece of marketing jargon, particularly with the recent addition to the Oxford English Dictionary of The Thick of It-inspired neologism 'Omnishambles'. In fact, the two form quite appropriate ends of a customer experience spectrum. The aspiration of an omnichannel experience is as utopian and grandiose as an omnishambles is catastrophic and cataclysmic.

Clients are our friends, and friends deserve better
10 June 2013, 9:05AM

At TBCH we are known for promoting our belief that "consumers deserve better", however it is not just consumers that our philosophy applies to - clients deserve better too.

As a client services guy, of course, you'd expect me to say that. But this is about more than just account management or client services. Clients deserve better from their agencies as a whole. Because every day the world changes, things get quicker, bars are raised, and results are sought.

3D Printing and what it could mean for rights holders
10 June 2013, 6:00AM

3D printing is a generic term for the process of a machine creating a three dimensional object layer by layer. While 3D printing has been a hot topic recently, particularly given Cody Wilson offering designs for a 3D printable gun online (pictured), 3D printing has actually been available for the best part of 30 years. That said, as Joe Berg at Prod Designs explains here, we are now at a stage where the technology is progressing forward in leaps and bounds and 3D printing is evolving rapidly.

Prolific tweeter Cory_Booker to run for US senateThis is perhaps increasingly commonplace, but still striking to hear all the same. As CNN reported the news that rising Democratic star and Newark mayor, Cory Booker, was officially declaring his candidacy for the US Senate one of the first things that the news anchor said was that Booker is "a prolific tweeter".
