Lars Silberbauer (@larssilberbauer), LEGO It is necessary to create a real relationship between brand and user. There are no tricks or shortcuts, you cannot fake it. 3 rules: 1)  Social needs 2)  Value creation

3)  Real-time We are hardwired to a social interaction. 20 million parents reached during 1 week campaign Kronkiwongi.

Sabeen H. Ahmad, Publicis Art of content creation

Thomas Van Shaik (@thomasvanschaik), Adidas A brand personality is ethical, rational and emotional – Who are you, what you do & why that matters. Good brand sells stuff, great brands sell meaning. Brands are creating more content than ever before on more platforms than ever before while simultaneously complaining about the difficulty of cutting through the noise.


Gert Wim ter Haar (@gertwimterhaar), KLM Reply within 30 minutes in 14 languages. Integrated customer data – Flying blue data, previous customer service interactions and preferences. Consumer driven innovation.

Summary •  The best strategy is doing stuff •  You’re 200% certain to fail big at certain point •  It all starts with stellar service •  Create stuff worth sharing •  Makes sales social by design


Beau Avril (@mrbeauavril), YouTube YouTube mobile watch time grew 90% year over year. Views are overrated, they don’t represent engagement or passion. Millenials are 2x more focused when watching video on their smartphones vs. on TV.

Among US teens 5 of the top 5 most popular and influential celebrities are YouTube stars.

Social celebrity Bethany Mota (@BethanyMota) “Bethany is not a YouTuber. She is a brand.”

Passionate economy can make the difference for marketers, especially when talking about videos.
