I’ve written before about Chipotle’s fresh marketing strategies, and this time they’ve delivered an incredible short film that is both an engaging and moving brand story. Notice anything? There’s no mention of dollar menus, happy meals, sizzling burgers or anything remotely associated with fast food – and why should it? It doesn’t go head-to-head with the other fast...

The Dodgers trademark “Los Doyers”

Are People Lining Up For Your Brand?

Are People Lining Up For Your Brand?

One of the things that’s really sunk in in my first few months as a Planner is that the answers you get aren’t important if you’re not already asking the right questions. So here’s a question to keep in mind: Do you have a product or service people will wait in line for? If...
