Are You Overthinking Your Marketing?
I have written many times about my preference for transparent marketing and an aversion to marketing buzz words and rhetoric. My motto is, cut to the chase. If I hear the word ‘paradigm’, I’m leaving. So I laughed out loud today when I came across a video published on Ad Freak, which was created by U.K.-based freelance animator and illustrator Joseph Pelling.
Joseph’s hilarious video pokes fun at the overthinking of the advertising and marketing creative process. I have to share it here.
I’m all for thinking out of the box, but you need to know when you’re getting in your own way.

Hi Christian, I’m glad you got a kick out of the video, too!
Samuel, yes, this sums up far too many brainstorming meetings I’ve been to in my life! Sad but true. Although, I remember the term “ideation session” being used instead of ‘brainstorming’ which was a big tip off that the meeting would be a complete waste of time.
