WHAT’S ON THE OUTSIDE?
Actions speak louder than words. What we do is what matters.
@marsinthestars#JBOYE15
@marsinthestars#JBOYE15
SO… WHAT DO WE DO?
@marsinthestars#JBOYE15
WE ARE VAMPIRES
• We feed off other
people, and can’t live
without them.
• We need access to
users, stakeholders,
and designers so
that we can suck
their blood
collaborate.
@marsinthestars#JBOYE15
WE ARE MIRRORS
• We reflect the
business’s
commitment.
• A tiny budget and no
time will be reflected
in poor content.
@marsinthestars#JBOYE15
WE ARE PUPPIES
• We have a lot of
energy, and can
accomplish amazing
things.
• But if you ignore us,
we can’t promise
you’ll like the
direction we go.
@marsinthestars#JBOYE15
WE ARE FLYING MONKEYS
• Once we understand
your goals, we make
things happen (like
magic!).
• We’ll capture your
customers and bring
them to you.
@marsinthestars#JBOYE15
WE ARE SCIENTISTS
• We experiment,
study, and draw
conclusions based
on research and
metrics.
• We make
hypotheses, which
need to be tested .
Our work will change
over time.
1. Ask for Blood Specific
Resources
2. Align our Goals with the
Company’s
3. Present Theories and Explain
Next Steps
4. Create Solutions
@marsinthestars#JBOYE15
HOW CAN WE BEST NAVIGATE THE MARKETING,
THE STRATEGY, AND THE BEARS?
Thank you!
