Learn why so many ads today are ineffective and what marketers are getting wrong. Today, Tom Goodwin reveals the four simple truths about advertising, the surprising power of “wasted” marketing, and why aesthetics alone can make an ad more persuasive. You'll learn: Why most digital ads fail and how short-term thinking is to blame. The hidden power of repeated exposure (feat. Moreland & Beach's 1992 study). How slow-motion, jingles, and branding signals can make products feel more premium. Why targeting is overrated. The one thing marketers should focus on to create better campaigns without breaking the bank.

In this episode of The Small Print, Bronwyn is joined by writer Tom Goodwin. They discuss the slippery slope of regulatory creep, brands and business acting as arbiters of justice, the concept of “brand-waggoning”, virtue-signalling versus being virtuous, and self-censorship in times of increased polarization. Bronwyn and Tom also explore possible ways of improving media — both social and mainstream. They look at the shortcomings of paywalling content, the possibility of state-sponsored social media platforms, and the pros and cons of regulatory bodies. --- Bronwyn Williams is a futurist, economist, trend analyst and host of The Small Print.

What would your company look like if you built it today? What world would we create if we could press reset?

As Head of Futures & Insights at Publicis Groupe and author of Digital Darwinism: Survival of the Fittest in the Age of Business Disruption, Tom is opinionated and insightful in equal measure. - Join the Journey Further Book Club: http://bit.ly/2r4fBWR Get in touch: podcast@journeyfurther.com

The MarTech Alliance chats to Tom Goodwin about his new book, Digital Darwinism: Survival of the Fittest in the Age of Business Disruption
In this week’s “Marketing Today,” Alan spoke with Tom Goodwin, author of the book, “Digital Darwinism: Survival of the Fittest in the Age of Business Disruption.” Goodwin is also a sought-after speaker — addressing topics like the future of advertising, digital disruption, and business transformation — and he is head of innovation at Zenith. In his conversation with Alan, Goodwin touches on how people rely on and attempt to harness new technologies in ways that complicate things but do not provide the radical transformation they are hoping for. “We have this kind of ongoing narrative about how chaotic things are and how the pace of change is worse than ever,” says Goodwin. “I think, sometimes, that means we focus more on the technologies than on our instincts, and we focus more on data than we do on ideas. And somehow we make life more complicated than it needs to be.” Goodwin goes on to add, “I think we have this wonderful new toolkit, which gives us new possibilities. But, actually, many of the learnings that we’ve got from the past, many of the techniques and strategies that we’ve employed before, are largely still appropriate today.” Highlights from this week’s “Marketing Today” podcast include: Goodwin, since he isn’t a fan of print —"ink on dead trees,” he calls it — was reluctant to write a book, but he responded to the urging of others. (1:26) Goodwin on what’s not (2:54) Rethinking business models: “Every company needs to be honest about the situation they’re in.” (5:06) Goodwin discusses disruption and paradigm shifts. (10:03) Companies that rely on data are focused on the past but change comes from doing things never done before. (15:16) “Change actually looks a lot more messy, scrappy and uncomfortable than most companies are prepared to accept.” (17:28) Where Goodwin sees big opportunities for Digital Darwinism. (20:08) Trends that concern Goodwin: wealth inequality, AI changing people’s roles in the economy, and companies operating at lower profit margins. (21:30) Goodwin anticipates no radical departure in the future of marketing, but he would like to see marketers get better at using the tools they already have. (28:57) Support the show.
Connected Futures: A Cisco podcast exploring business innovation insights
A lot of talk about disruption is on the assumption that it's about negating negative forces where actually, quite often it's about leveraging the power of the newly possible to do things, which genuinely create game-changing results." So says Tom Goodwin, head of innovation at Zenith Media and author of author of Digital Darwinism: Survival of the Fittest in the Age of Business Disruption. The problem, Goodwin adds, is that too many companies are not sensing the newly possible, or making the tough choices that will set them up for future success. Connected Futures executive editor Kevin Delaney sat with Tom recently for a free-ranging discussion on disruption, opportunity, and the hard decisions that many business leaders are avoiding.
