Think marketing is just fluff and fun? Think again. It's time to talk money.
In boardrooms across the world, marketing often gets the short end of the stick. It's seen as the department that throws colourful parties and comes up with catchy jingles. But let's cut through the noise and get down to brass tacks: marketing is about cold, hard cash.
The Power of Creativity in Your Bottom Line
At its core, marketing is the art of persuasion, and in business, persuasion equals profit. It's about wielding the power of creativity to craft campaigns that don't just catch eyes—they capture wallets. When done right, marketing is the engine that drives your business past the competition and straight to the bank.
Consider this: Apple's "Get a Mac" campaign, which ran from 2006 to 2009, didn't just give us a chuckle. It helped increase Apple's market share by 42% in its first year alone. That's not just creative—that's commercially creative.
Fun Doesn't Mean Frivolous
Yes, marketing can be fun. And yes, it should be. But don't mistake a playful exterior for a lack of serious intent. The most memorable campaigns—the ones that stick in your mind and influence your purchasing decisions—are often the result of rigorous strategy, deep consumer insights, and relentless creativity.
