Mars Rover Smart Brief Post - 2/21/2019

-
What's up guys! 

 So this week I have a very personal and sad goodbye to say on my blog. The Mars Rover is officially the longest lasting robot ever, on another planet. It's incredible the amount of high quality data the rover managed too discover over the last 15 years. Helped us learn more about Mar's past which allows us to forecast the Planet's future.

 The Mars over might go down in history as one of the most significant robots ever, if humans end up populating Mars. If people end up on the red planet, a big reason why it happened would be this small, seemingly insignificant robot. Everyone will forget it began a path and humans followed.

 This is especially sad for me because I remember faintly the time period it was launched. It launched when I was about 6 and my little sister had just been born. I was crazy into astronauts and I remember getting some type of space model for my Birthday that year. The news of the abandoning of the rover is just sad cause its the end of an era and it just makes me feel old. Its a sad feeling but it is what it is. See ya later guys, and say your goodbyes to Wall-E jr. Rest in peace little guy...
Peace Out!

Game of Thrones Exploitation Smart Brief Post - 3/21/2019

What's up guys!   This is my SECOND Game of Thrones post, I do love the show, but I just find it an extremely interesting topic. I just recently learned with the upcoming final season of Game of Thrones coming up, companies are using and exploiting the Game of Thrones brand image. However, I am assuming that Game of Thrones is getting a cut or share of money from these companies. The reason I named this blog as an 'exploitation' is because brands are using another brand as a catalyst to elevate their own brand. I understand that by paying them money it makes it okay but by doing this it's as if you're saying your product isn't marketable enough. I trust that my two examples (two separate articles) Oreo and Mountain Dew, are both great brands and have great products. But the question I am asking is, was it necessary. One view point is that these cool, hip companies partnered with this cool, hip brand and TV show in Game of Thrones to get media attention. Its i

T-Mobile Smart Brief Post - 2/7/2019

What's up guys!   Starting my second blog of the year and Super Bowl weekend just happened. Being an AD major, I look forward more to the ADs than the game itself. This week Im looking at one of the most successful ADs from the Super Bowl. The T-Mobile Social-First Strategy was very simple yet extremely effective. I found this topic through an article from SmartBriefs.com. They had some interesting insights. The article mentioned that they kept it simple with the message.   Are you with us? You should be. T-Mobile has always had a reputation for a strong & stable brand image. This AD  demonstrates their consistency. The article also hints on how their CEO John Legere plays 'an integral part' in the companies brand image . I believe that T-Mobile is continuously having a subtle but effective effect on the advertising industry. This year's Super Bowl proves that between telephone carriers they are at the top when it comes to advertising. I feel that they will k

Culture Smart Brief Post - 04/03/2019

What's up guys!   Hope you guys are doing well! Many companies like diversity and being cultural because of PR and CSR. For those of you who don't know (for you that know this isn't for you) PR means public relations and CSR means corporate social responsibility. Both these terms are very important for companies because it's how people and their stakeholder view them. More importantly they care how consumers and customers see them because at the end of the day they are the ones that are giving the company their money. In order to give someone your money they have to like them to an extent and being diverse and cultural helps with that image. Nowadays we see more  and more campaigns around awareness for diversity and inclusion especially at this time of the year – with February being Black History Month and March being Women's History Month. However, some of these campaign are subtle and others are more direct and potent. But as long as companies keep in touch wit
