Coke Campaign Combines TV, Mobile--and Users' Chok Swing

Coca Cola combined a television commercial with a mobile app and instant win promotion in a recent campaign. The result—the app was downloaded 390,000 times and Coke saw its brand revitalized in this Chinese city. One likely reason behind the campaign's success was the novel "Chok" app, which worked akin to a Wii in that it turned the mobile phone into a remote controller. [video] Users would then swing the phone whe  [...]

Applying Neuroscience Marketing to the Online World

The science of neuroscience marketing can be either fascinating (if you are a brand) or slightly creepy (if you are a consumer at whom these efforts are focused). Rarely, though, are they seen as relevant to digital marketing. It is understandable: most of the sexy research or case studies are very much focused on actual consumer goods. But, in fact, there are a number of related studies that - while perhaps not formally considered neuroscience marketing - can still be applied to digital marke  [...]

Pepco Follows Social Media Playbook in Power Outage

This past weekend more than 301,000 customers in Maryland and the District of Columbia lost power after unusually harsh thunderstorms hit the area. The storm, which clocked in at 90 miles an hour in some parts of the area, was over within 20 minutes. The power outage, though, lasted for days with service not restored for many until Thursday. Customers quickly became disgruntled with the utility, posting their ire on Twitter and in the blogosphere. Unlike other PR crises - last winter for exam  [...]

The news that Apple was collecting location-based service data was not met with pleasure by some in Congress, hence the tech company's summons to Washington to explain. Last week it gave a detailed response [pdf] to questions posed by Representative Joe Barton (D, Texas) and Edward Markey (D, Mass), which was subsequently released. In short, Apple is not tracking individuals with the data. "When a customer's device sends  [...]
