Having served the role of Digital Prophet at AOL, Oath, and Verizon Media, David Shingy, aka “Shingy,” is no stranger to marketing. A dear friend of Advertising Week, we're pleased to welcome Shingy to this episode of Great Minds to discuss his extraordinary career.

David Shing aka “Shingy” is an Australian futurist, creative director, strategic consultant, and entrepreneur. He is also called “The Digital Prophet,” with good reason.    “Shingy” is a multidimensional creative specialising in advising brands, companies, and clients about inventive and effective approaches to optimizing brand value within the digital landscape.    David's story is an interesting one.  His long list of accomplishments complement his long list of jobs, starting when he was a teenager. As a youth, David worked at a radio show and sold Levi's. He also became a bartender at 15 years old while also learning hotel management in high school. He became an avid photographer. He even learned four chords to try to become a band member.     “I'm very interested in so many things,” David said during his sit-down with the RUN GPG Podcast.    David came from a large family in a small town in Australia. He studied both graphic and fashion design, but eventually chose the former as his profession. In his early 20s, David invented some internet technologies that opened many doors for him.   He then moved to the United States where he held many positions in large companies including AOL and Verizon Media. He left Verizon in 2019 because he said he wanted to be a better listener and teacher. That's exactly what he is doing now, advising and consulting with companies about marketing and branding anchored on empathy.      The RUN GPG Podcast had a diverse conversation with Shing covering a lot of topics. Here are some of the topics we covered in the episode:    David Shing's journey to being a branding and advertising consultant for some of the biggest companies in the world.   How he teaches people how to mind map so that people will think about peripheral ideas rooted in a core central thought. “It allows people to capture ideas quickly. Brand communication is lateral, not linear,” said David.   David describes himself as a creative with a very strong point of view, but at the same time, he closely aligns with empathy.    The pandemic has shifted people's priorities and hobbies. Bedtime reading, baking, and people's ability to discover things all went up during the pandemic. Companies have to adapt to these changes.    Every brand needs a point of view. Advertising is the business of making people want something, but brands that are smart make things that people want. It's no longer awareness-based advertising or amplification. It's actually about alignment.    One of the biggest mistakes brands make is that they want to amplify the brand when they should be talking about empathy. They want to do what they have always done.    Do we know what consumers are up to? No. We can guess but we don't really know because there are different types of people with different psychographics.   Brands should focus on the “feel” and not the usual performance indexes. You have to focus on the feel and the story and not just hijack the internet with crap memes.    The importance of USP's - What is unique about your brand, and how do you deliver that to your target audience?    There are multiple ways to connect with people and you should optimize these tools, whether it is through sight, sound, or motion.    A lot of brands are selling to the head to try and drive it to the heart. That's the wrong way. Artificial intelligence is a great start but it's not the panacea … yet.    What is the ‘Fourth Industrial Revolution? Intelligence and Data   Advice to aspiring ad executives: Act like the human who is consuming the brand. The #1 ingredient is a surprise, whether they laugh or they cry, the feeling of being surprised by the emotion can take the brand a long way.    The people David wants to have dinner with.    David wants to be known as somebody who inspired others to do better than they thought they could.      Anyone creating in advertising or branding should definitely pay attention and take notes on this one.  David Shing has become an important voice as a ‘Prophet' in the age of digital technology.    Know more about GREATER PROPERTY GROUP and the RUN GPG Podcast by going to www.rungpg.com or by getting in touch with us here: info@greaterpropertygroup.com.     Contact David Shing   Website: https://www.shingy.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidshingy/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/shingy LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shingy/   Subscribe & Review To The RUN GPG Podcast   Thanks for tuning in to this week's episode of the RUN GPG Podcast!

Working in marketing, I'm often asked about the balance between creativity and strategy - which is more important? How do businesses harness creativity in a strategic way? But they're not 'chalk and cheese'. They're not opposites that somehow need to be brought together. Someone who knows this better than many is this weeks guest, Shingy.David Shing - or Shingy as he's more commonly known - is a Digital Prophet. In basic terms, he contextualises behaviours and trends for brands within the digital landscape. He advises how to have great ideas that bring brands more value - so creativity and strategy are in his makeup. But with a background in design, media and marketing, the real superpower Shingy has at his disposal is his unquenchable curiosity.In this episode of Be The Drop, recorded LIVE from Pause Fest, Shingy provides tips on how to unearth great ideas, he reflects on the definition of craft and being a craftsman, plus we have an interesting debate about storytelling and the power of curiosity.----Are you considering starting a podcast?

"There are no passengers on spaceship earth - we are all crew." This quote comes from David Shing aka. Shingy, Digital Prophet at Verizon Media. In this episode of the NextM podcast series Shingy reveals insights from his daily work in the creative industry, gives inspiring implications for brand communication and prophesies five trends that the communications industry should keep in mind in the future....>

David Shing is Verizon Media’s digital prophet, working across the globe to identify new opportunities for the business.

You may not have heard of David Shing, but you probably know about Shingy. The self-styled “digital prophet” at Oath – the Verizon-owned juggernaut that comprises AOL, Yahoo, the Huffington Post and some 50 media and b-to-b brands – is in Cannes on a mission that seems counterintuitive to what a digital prophet ought to be all about. He wants people to dial down their anxiety-inducing reliance on their phones. On this pop-up Cannes-themed edition of the Ad Lib podcast, we caught up with Shingy, who was en route to his keynote address. Here, we discuss tech dependence, Oath, 5G, living a bit more mindfully – and what exactly it is that he does.

How does a ‘digital prophet’ rise to prominence? David Shing gives us his pearls of wisdom, gleaned from hard life experience.

Digital Prophet David Shing (Shingy) joins the podcast LIVE from Advertising Week Europe to discuss the diversity in marketing, how to stand out with video marketing,  and what the future of branding looks like in an incredibly crowded space.

There's Cher, there's Madonna and there is Shingy. David Shing, known to all far and wide as "Shingy," is the Digital Prophet for the newly formed media holding company, Oath. And by the way, that's his actual title, "Digital Prophet." A graphic designer by trade, Shingy has been clarifying and proselytizing the power and wonder of all things digital for well more than a decade. Listen in as Rob and Shingy unpack a variety of topics from the quality of work at Cannes Lions to the future of wearables to the nature and possibility of brand fame in our ever-connected age.
