I just went to Skittles site and it’s actually still up, to their credit. I thought for sure it would be a short-term gimmick, when in fact it does exactly what you want your product site to do – show how popular you are. People aren’t going to Ski…

I will remember this so that I can be sure to never do business with Go Daddy.

Early in the day I went to the site, and saw that people were incredulous. Later in the day, however, people were posting in which body orifices they were putting skittles, not exactly the tweet I want to see! Giving up control? No, just testing the…

About Me

When I think about account planning, my heart speeds up in excitement and my mind races with curiosity.

My name is Ryan. I am a junior integrated marketing communication major at Winthrop University and future account planner.

I am an experiencer… I love anything new. New people. New places. New food. New adventures. New ways of thinking. New challenges. I thrive on adventure.

I am an avid networker. I love meeting people, sharing connections, and using networks for the better good.

Areas of Expertise

As a junior IMC major, I have experience acting as an account planner on various projects. My experience includes:

+ Using MRI Plus and qualitative research methods to develop consumer profiles for primary and secondary TAs.
+Using research to discover consumer insights, and developed a campaign to reach selected TA.
+Conducting ethnographic research and determining key insights from the research
+Writing creative briefs
+Developing creative campaigns from strategy to execution

That is a list of some of my formal experience. I also have the informal experience of being an avid people watcher and fearless conversation striker. I will talk to anyone! It is amazing how much you learn from striking up a conversation, and genuinely caring about what the other person says. It is really cool. Plus, the other person appreciates the fact that you took an interest in learning about them and their interests. Life is cool how it works, huh?

I am currently searching for a summer advertising internship, preferably in account planning. I am hungry for experience, knowledge and an outlet for my passion for understanding people. My work hard, play hard attitude prepares me to do whatever it takes to succeed, and bring value to consumers, your clients and your agency. Best of all I will do it with a smile on my face, and spunk in my step.

I would be happy to work anywhere if the opportunity arises. I visited NYC this fall and fell in love with the city. I would be thrilled to do an internship there. I loved the city’s vibe.

WANT TO REACH HISPANIC CONSUMERS? BE RESPECTFUL. RELEVANT. AND DIFFERENTIATE YOURSELF FROM THE COMPETITION.

INTERESTING STORY FROM ADWEEK.

Reaching Hispanic consumers requires a strong integrated strategy that incorporates relevant messaging, respect and differentiation into every aspect of a brand or company.

That’s the chief approach that Target employs to attract a loyal following of Latino consumers who consistently give the stores high marks for providing a convenient shopping experience, per the retailer.

Target owes much of its success to early acknowledgement of Latinos as an emerging major… Continue

Would you rather have a Coke, or $784,642.86 in cash? (Watch this Carlos video for all the details. Tell all your Coke lovin friends. GET PAID. NOW!) http://www.adgabber.com/video/brand-ownership
