The picture above is the perfect explanation for what my friends did while I was in LA.

And yes, I accept their ‘binge-boozing-like-a-19-year-old-Geordie’ might have been to try and forget the fact I was there … so you don’t have to point that out. Thanks very much.



Help Tim Cook Become Richer …

So today we are launching an APSOTW assignment in association with WARC.

It is predominantly for planners based in Asia, but if you want to go for it, then go for it.

The reason we are focusing on Asia is that the challenge involves APPLE PAY and the competitive environment there is far more innovative and accepted.

That said, it would be good practice for anyone so if you’re ready for it, it’s ready for you.

Like all APSOTW assignments, your submission will be evaluated by a team of highly regarded and wildly experienced planners so feedback will be constructive and super useful for you moving forward.

Information – and the specifics of the brief – is here.

Want to know the definition of bittersweet?

Knowing you have a weeks holiday from my blogging because from today, China has a week-long national holiday.

That’s right, I’m going to be on holiday. Again.

Yes … I know I had one only a few weeks ago and I know I had a month off only about 6 weeks ago, but hey, I’m just a humble servant of the Communist party so don’t blame me.

So unless you live in LA – because I’ll be knocking on your door – enjoy the break, because I know I will. Till the 10th …
