Why superstars are good for your brand
I decided to go and get some water and after much fussing from the staff, who were incredibly dog-friendly, I felt that Pippa would be okay while I walked away. She sat patiently watching my every move and while people were trying to get her attention, her stare remained fixed.
Finally when I arrived back, and she was suitably relieved, one of the young women asked about Pippa and gave her a pat... and then more pats. Pippa couldn't be happier and that opened the door for conversation.
We discussed where we were from, what we do and all the normal things airport conversations conjure up.
The young woman was Ellie Goulding. She was travelling with her school friend and personal assistant Hannah, who was equally delightful.
5 ways to protect your image
Image is a funny thing. Who we are or what we perceive ourselves to be, may not align with the perception of others. This has been precisely the case with certain ethnic groups this year. Due to circumstances beyond their control, they have been vilified, put upon and generally admonished just for being who they are.
And it seems, at this point, there is no way back. For moderate Muslims, Islamic State is causing an identity catastrophe: their image has been tainted. They are in crisis management.
How to launch a start-up effectively
Not too indifferent to when Expedia launched onto the marketplace, Michael wanted a transparent platform - where people could move everything from their dog, through to their house, a container of furniture, through to bulk handling products. A place where it all can be done, with full visibility of the competitive landscape.
The art of visual artillery
In my experience, graphic designers can be a marketing company’s biggest weapon, with their ability to create collateral that packs a visual punch. Cohesive graphic design communicates key messages within seconds, solving problems through the carefully selected combination of type, space and image. It’s more than an art form; it’s a powerful tool.
If your market isn’t blown away within seconds of viewing your design, you’re doing it wrong.

Loving your job
Marketing maven, Tegan Addinsall, a senior marketing manager at Marketing Eye Melbourne came blasting through the front door of the office today with the biggest smile on her face. It was 7.30am in the morning, and although I was at work, I hadn't even put my makeup on and certainly hadn't finished my first cup of coffee.
"I love my job!" proclaimed Tegan. And indeed she does. Every day she comes to work with the biggest smile on her face. She is incredibly smart, and knows her "stuff" better than most. Sometimes annoyingly, she smiles and laughs so much that I want to hit her over the head with a book, so she can come down to my level (not really!).
What we all can learn from Miley Cyrus
All fairly harmless stuff - after all, Hannah Montana was a Disney brand, wholesome and pure that teenage girls the world-over could relate to.
Then something happened. She grew up. From teen idol to woman and that's where it all began.
Like Madonna before her, and Kylie Minogue for that matter, Miley Cyrus, the former sweet teenage girl that played Hannah Montana wanted to evolve her brand image and take it to the next level. If she would have kept up the wholesome image, it probably would have ensured that her brand diminish over time. Instead, she reinvented her brand. First it started with a number of selfies in proactive poses creating headlines. Then it was the picture of her smoking pot which I would imagine was not by accident - instead just part of a brand evolution.

It was a big step for both of them to take to hire a marketing company as it isn't something that they had done before.
Why People Who Lie On LinkedIn Get Found Out
Over the years, I have been dumb-founded by what former employees have written on their LinkedIn profiles about what they did while working at Marketing Eye.
The first one that had me gob-smacked was a French assistant, who wrote that she had developed and managed the Marketing Eye brand, building the company’s marketing strategy and executing it.
In reality, she was a personal assistant, who had poor English and was struggling to do any task at all from an administrative perspective. She didn’t write anything, had no contact at all with design or branding but was excellent at organizing my dinner appointments, assisting me with my wardrobe and in general being a great personal assistant, albeit one that could not write on an email on my behalf because of the poor English factor. She worked for me for a few months only which I did it as a favour for her boyfriend who was a good friend at the time. In the end, I had to tell him, that her English was so bad, I couldn’t afford the luxury of her impeccable taste in clothing, makeup and picking restaurants at that stage of my life.
