Confessions of an advertising graduate...

I believe that digital radically changed the role of any advertising creative.

Whatever we do, whatever we think of must be worth sharing. We have to help brands turn their

brand stories into services, products and experiences. The consumers gut feeling about a brand

was never so important.

Everything we create, design or build has to be user-centred.

This is the era of the consumer.

What’s your opinion? Let’s have a coffee and talk about it.

The proof of the pudding...

Disconnect / RLKM

Agency Boondoggle, 2011

RLKM asked us to develop a concept that use “digital” as a way to get more people to contribute voluntarily money to preserve nature.

Let’s offer fresh air instead of free wifi by a mobile application.

Agency Boondoggle, 2011

Rather than being constantly connected park visitors may prefer to shut off their phone. With the Disconnect application we help them to take a break. Disconnect offers you total freedom: all you need to optimally experience a nature park.

Disconnect certainly isn’t targeted at park visitors only. Disconnect becomes a brandthat helps anyone temporarily escape from daily life.

Social Booking / Thalys

Agency Boondoggle, 2012

Nowadays everybody seems to be connected. We have become social citizens. Visiting this friends in real life still demands crossing physical borders.

I noticed booking tickets to actually visit these friends is not a social experience.

Social Booking / Thalys

Agency Boondoggle, 2012

Small idea: Let’s use Facebook Connect to connect friends with places and vice versa. In this way you not only spice up your website layout but also the relevance of advertising on (by example) Facebook. With social booking the customerreceives a more central place withinthe service.
