If I say the word marketin
g – what do you think of? What image comes into your head? Who do you think of?
We are creating a story of how people REALLY see marketing – not in words, but in pictures!
I’ve been asked to give a presentation entitled Marketing for a public presentation on the 25th of March at Chapter, in Cardiff. So, I want to build a presentation about how YOU see marketing? Not how I see it.
This presentation is not a usual academic lecture about research, case studies, or the state of Business Schools or higher Education in the UK (How Boring!!). This is far more interesting. It is for the first ever Pecha Kucha Night in Cardiff … so I want to do something a little different.
Pecha Kucha is Japanese for ‘chit chat’ … and occurring in over 270 cities world wide Pecha Kucha Nights I am told are informal and fun gatherings. It is where creative people get together and share their ideas, works, thoughts, holiday snaps – just about anything really, in the PechaKucha 20×20 format – a simple presentation format where you show 20 images, each for 20 seconds.
So my idea … “If a picture says 1000 words – how do you see Marketing?”
I want to build a presentation about how YOU see marketing? Not how I see it. Be it student, creative, marketer, web designer, consultant, statistician, a dad, a mum, a teacher, nurse, a secretary, a doctor, a politician, a truck driver … whomever you are, what ever you do, where ever you live – ‘How do you see marketing?’
TO PARTICIPATE:
- Think about marketing – what do you visualise? What do you think of? Who do you think of?
- Take a picture, draw it, find it and email it to me at info@caseinsights.com or tweet it using the #mktgpic … by Friday 12th of March.
- There are two categories: student and non-student.
a) For non-student include: Your name, your profession/job, and a maximum of 300 words to describe the picture in your own words. I don’t want to use my words.
b) For student entries, include: Your student number, university and university email address. - From those received, 20 images will be selected to include in the presentation for the first ever Pecha Kucha Night in Cardiff. The presentation will also be available online.
All the images received will also be uploaded and publish on Flickr with their descriptions for everyone to ponder and consider. To keep this real, I’d like to include all contributor professions (e.g., student, lawyer) with the images on Flickr.
It would be great to see how the rest of the world see’s marketing. So send me your picture and description today to help create a visual story of Marketing.
Big smiles
