Webinar: Digital Excellence - What It Is and How to Get There
The speed of change in technology has never been faster. Twenty years ago, ecommerce didn’t exist: this year, consumers will spend $1.5 trillion online. It has only been seven years since the first iPhone was released; yet in many markets today, more than three quarters of the population has a smartphone, using this as their key device for connecting to the internet.
So how do companies need to adapt to this rapid pace of change?
Join senior research analyst Andrew Warren-Payne, as he talks about the significance for companies in achieving digital excellence to get ahead. Using case studies and examples of best practice from around the world, he will explain the four key ingredients to achieving digital excellence and show that companies that get there outperform their peers on a number of fronts.

Amy Poehler Outtakes Are Marketing Gold for Old Navy

TV might be in a death spiral, but film is not dead. That was the statement from Old Navy's global CMO Ivan Wicksteed during his presentation on expanding the retailer's marketing through digital content at Ad Age's Digital Conference San Francisco. Mr. Wicksteed talked at length about how content works for Old Navy, and how he thinks content and programmatic will intersect in the future.
For the retailer's recent campaigns, including one featuring comedian Amy Poehler, content has played a central role in its marketing and is being sought out by consumers far more than traditional advertising. Some of the content working best for Old Navy are outtakes from Ms. Poehler's TV-commercial shoots. After his presentation, Mr. Wicksteed expanded on why Old Navy's content with Ms. Poehler is resonating better than the TV spots she appears in.
UPDATE: Creativity has outtakes of Amy Poehler channeling Judy Judy for her latest Old Navy spot.

Here Come the Men of Pinterest

Pinterest's first explosive growth was fueled by women, as suggested by early reports from women's magazines that their sites were suddenly getting more traffic from Pinterest than from Facebook.
But don't discount the growing group of men on the social pinboard, said Don Faul, head of operations at Pinterest, during an appearance at Ad Age's Digital Conference in San Francisco.
See more video from the conference right here, with Old Navy Global CMO Ivan Wicksteed talking about the value of outtakes from its TV campaign with Amy Poehler.

Mobile Marketing: The Week in Review
In case you missed it, here are some of the top stories in mobile marketing and advertising we’ve been following this week.
The trend of American advertisers adopting Location-Based Mobile advertising (LBM) is right in line with efforts taking place internationally.
Social media platform Pinterest has been around for a number of years and is perennially one of the top 10 most popular social media websites on the net. They still don’t have nearly the user base that online behemoths like YouTube of Facebook have, however, but they are constantly trying to close that gap.
Eat your oatmeal. It’s good for you. Not to mention that now you can join the high tech world of augmented reality and take a wild selfie to grab extra goodies.
It happens every year around this time: marketers begin scrambling to finalize their holiday plans. As also happens, many are doing it at the last minute.
It’s the era of the selfie. Unfortunately. Yes, we’ve all seen the bad selfies people take in their bathrooms, the glare of the flash bouncing off the mirror so blindingly it makes us wonder if a comet just zoomed through the room. The selfie your friend posts from a local pub, two hours after she said she was too sick to go out. The selfies people take on an airplane when the oxygen masks have just been released — like, really? That’s what you’re interested in doing at this moment?
