Steven Jobs "Think Different" Marketing Presentation

As Apple was failing in the mid 1990’s, Steve Jobs came back to the company to try to turn things around. And he did in a major way. One of the first priorities for Jobs was to re-introduce Apple to the market. This rebrand was a critical part of the equation for success because it set Apple on the right track during a time when it desperately needed leadership. The “Think Different” campaign was launched as a result. In this internal speech given to the team by Jobs himself, he outlines the strategy and goals of this campaign, as well as the thought processes behind it. It’s a rare and interesting look at what went into creating such a massive and successful brand.

He articulates them very well, and when you decide to agree with him or not, it certainly has the potential to expand your mind in ways that very few speakers are able to do.

The moon is 240,000 miles away - it’s hard to even picture how far that is. But JFK pledged to the American people that we would reach the moon. But not only reach it, but do it in just a few short years. JFK gives this speech at Rice University in Houston Texas on September 12, 1962. It’s an inspiring speech. And I like to think back to this one whenever I’m setting goals for myself that seem insurmountable - because it's a great reminder that anything is possible. You've likely heard an excerpt of this speech before - "we choose to go to the moon not because it is easy, but because it is hard." Enjoy this lofi edition of JFK inspiring a nation.
