Guidelines for presenting creative ideas

1. Make sure you know the pattern/ tool

on which your idea is based on

(i.e. Fight for a Cause/ Sabotage/ Create a Product etc.)

2. Before presenting your idea, make a

presentation of the Pattern to client.

Preferably, this presentation should include:

A. Three case studies of other successful projects

following the same pattern.

B. Put emphasis on the results of these

projects:

• free media coverage

• level of engagement of people

• awareness of the project,

• awareness of the brand,

• marketing and sales results

C. Explain the Logic behind the Magic

of the tool

(as it is presented in the materials of the tool)

3. Now present your idea to the client

4. After presenting your new idea:

reiterate the pattern to which your idea belongs,

The idea belongs to a family, it is not alone

5. Now present to client the guidelines / criteria

for evaluating the idea:

A. From the Media point of view:

• PRabiliy of the idea:

Will the media be interested in covering this project or

reporting on it?

Can this story become content or entertaining news

(branded content/ branded entertainment)?

B. From the consumer point of view:

• Share-ability of the idea:

will people (consumers) be interested to share this idea in

their social networks, mobile media, web,

or/ and simply talk about it with friends or other people?

• Consumer involvement (beyond sharing):

Will people be interested to get actively involved in this

project by voting/ editing/ participating in it/ contributing

content etc?

• Openness of the idea for people to take the idea forward:

Is the idea open to independent initiatives of people?

C. From the Brand point of view:

• The message/ brand idea:

Is the message/ brand idea single minded?

Is it simple, focused?

Is it credible and relevant?

• Integration between the creative idea and the brand /

product:

Is the creative idea strongly connected to the world of the brand

/ product?

How well does it strengthen the brand idea/

brand message/ brand awareness?

• Differentiation

Is the project different from other ads/ communications

in the category / market?
