Crafting Cross-Platform Solutions<br />

Talk about change — to sell an ad schedule these days, media owners are partnering with a<br />

client’s agency to create the campaign. This integrated, creative partnership is producing<br />

groundbreaking work<br />

A Good, Compelling Idea<br />

“Clients are simply<br />

communicating more,” CNN<br />

International’s Jonathan Davies<br />

tells inter national ist. “In days past,<br />

big multinationals just did<br />

branding campaigns; now they<br />

are selling products. And of<br />

course, we are seeing a maturity<br />

in this media category.<br />

International media is becoming<br />

more creative. Plus media<br />

agencies are pushing for<br />

innovation and they are certainly<br />

open to new ideas. Yes,<br />

‘integration’ is part of every buy,<br />

but in our thinking that simply<br />

means having a good,<br />

compelling idea that carries over<br />

into different platforms.”<br />

CASE STUDY: Nokia “City Guides”<br />

Nokia’s goal was to promote its multimedia<br />

devices. The target was an affluent audience<br />

interested in music, travel, film and<br />

photography. CNN worked with Mediacom’s<br />

Nick Bauer to come up with “The Scene” — a<br />

series of more than 20 cutting-edge city guides<br />

showcasing a city through the eyes of one of<br />

its famous citizens. “An Insider’s View of Milan<br />

with Giorgio Armani” is one example. These<br />

were developed as short programs to run onair,<br />

followed by an extensive Web site tie-in.<br />

CASE STUDY: Philips<br />

“Online Briefing Room”<br />

Philips’ goal was to extend its “sense and<br />

simplicity” theme, which positions Philips as a<br />

company whose technology makes life easier.<br />

CNN worked with Emma Asquith of Carat to<br />

create a daily “Online Briefing Room” on the<br />

CNN.com site. The content is everything the<br />

busy executive needs to know for that day and<br />

delivered in bite-size chunks online, via email or<br />

mobile phone. Put together with a light-hearted<br />

touch, it not only includes news and business<br />

information, but also elements of humor and<br />

entertainment.<br />

DAVID CLARK<br />

“<br />

One big obstacle facing international marketing is<br />

‘friction,’ or the rub between the promising economics of<br />

consolidated global operations and the challenge of multi-market<br />

scale. This global- multi-market dilemma rarely works within the<br />

realities of local media planning and buying. But now technology,<br />

like Joost, is emerging that reduces this ‘friction’ by providing true<br />

local communications on a worldwide basis.<br />

”<br />

This means more<br />

access and more reach for all marketers.<br />

“<br />

The FT had a very solid year in print and<br />

online advertising in 2006. All regions of the<br />

world saw growth, but the U.S. surpassed<br />

expectations with many new advertisers in<br />

print and online, as well as record<br />

circulation.<br />
