Sunday Morning Reading Do we need Superman or just a Speakeasy?

Superman and the KKK, a speakeasy, human arrogance all in this week’s Sunday Morning Reading.

I couldn’t find this platform more useless. I thought Threads was useless. This is beyond.

It can be difficult for people to grasp that the best way to market a brand is not necessarily to talk about the brand, but to talk about the consumer experience with the brand.

Every day is a chance to do something memorable. Why do we think this only applies to our personal lives and not the brands we help to build? Life is short. Let’s do some cool shit together then tell stories about it. Be original.

Come on, it’ll be fun.

Have you ever thought about all the bad movies that had to be made in order to give us that one particular writer, director, producer, actor, editor, or art director that would go on to achieve greatness? You can’t have one without the other.

You don’t need pool-side service and spa treatments to offer memorable experiences. How you design an experience and the stories you tell are limited by nothing but your own imagination and your willingness to step outside of what you consider normal.

I don’t see how any writer, designer, photographer, or filmmaker, can willingly use a technology that was built by stealing from them and specifically designed to put them out of business.

The fable about the tree voting for the axe because its handle was made of wood comes to mind.

Some claim it’s generational, but I say it’s cultural. More consumers seek out experiences over merchandise. How the experience makes them feel, whether it’s a destination or a piece of technology, the emotional reward is the thing that sticks with them.

When it comes to storytelling, details matter. All too often, brands want to tell a big story. This is their one shot to tell the world what they have to offer, so they go big. The problem is their story is too big for the space provided. They need to get small.

It’s not all about where you go and what you do. It’s about the stories you tell when you get home. They won’t remember much of what you say, but they’ll always remember how you made them feel.
