Apple brand
SIMPLE an Apple ad will stand out for having little to no copy, a simple backdrop, a short and simple slogan, hip music from a band whose song was likely #1 on iTunes the next day and includes the famous Apple logo at the end.

Sir Isaac Newton sitting under an apple tree Steve Jobs later decided to scrap this image because he felt that the logo was too cerebral and not easily reproduced at small sizes.

Targeting that offers high reach and precision demographics, location, interests, behaviors
Why "hello" was more successful than "wow"
1) Consistency: all ads featured the same scenes with the same ending, reiterating the message, while the Vista ads, bungled different Wow scenes that only made you wonder what this ad was all about and didn't provide a clear answer 2) Simplicity: Apple ads are known for their simple, clear messaging and the Hello ad was no different 3) Relevance: the Apple ads were relevant to the occasion (The Oscars) with sequences from films thrown into the ad, while Microsoft's was all over the place
3 characteristics of a customer problem
1. Is it pervasive 2. Is there an urgent need 3. Is the customer willing to pay
Five Snackable Philosophies Robin Matlock CMO
1. embrace a growth mindset (Inspired by Stanford's Dr. Carol Dweck Fixed mindset vs. Growth Mindset When pushed out of comfort zone to learn new things, Neurons can form new, stronger connections... get smarter 2. nurture your network (Early career / MGT style / tough, over-compensate. [Symt - 360-degree feedback] Interns model this behavior best So what happens to us? Busy, corporate hierarchy. Who has time for a networking lunch? Who doesn't? Put it on your to-do list - "A" priority.) 3. ramp up your resonance (3rd strategy, "Resonance" - implies certain quality... like opera singer Make a lasting impact It's what we say, how we say it and how we show up that matters. Group dynamics study, The Silent Sex - men out-talk women in meetings, even when 60% female. Tables turn only when women outnumber men 4:1. Ladies, when silent, miss opportunity to be resonant - make an impact. Speaking up is risky -- riskier not to speak up Relevance - be informed; listen Double-voicing: caveats like "I may be totally off base, but..." Sets others up to discount us before words leave our mouths State your thoughts with conviction and confidence.) 4. move on to move up (4th strategy - learn from my kids Boys, 12 and 15 Watching my boys play sports...physical, fouls Play through - move on Good at compartmentalizing - allows you to put all you've got into the game - take risks Good lesson in business Leave it on the court) 5. connect with your core ([1 of 2] Get in touch with personal core beliefs and biases. Introspection Slow down & record those messages, and replay in quieter moments In synch with your self-perception? Are you at peace? Face my own unconscious bias - pre-recorded messages Better we are at recognizing these, the better we will become at shattering negative "panes" in glass ceiling, and magnifying positive ones.)
4 personality traits a founding team should possess to increase their chances of success in a new venture

Robin Matlock CMO, VMware
2018 marks VMW's 20th Anniversary Twenty years ago, who could have predicted the impact our extraordinary company was to have on the world? VMW engineered a way to exponentially increase the capacity of servers through virtualization - enabling incredible new possibilities in computing. Virtualization is the foundational principle of the cloud. Arguably without VMware there would be no cloud, no way to connect information from any device, and none of the subsequent innovations that were built upon this pivotal transformative idea. And our business continues to thrive, grow and evolve. Today we are leading innovators not just in Compute but in Cloud, Mobility, Networking and Security. VMW has changed the world of technology. And Technology is changing the world

advertising campaign
Accelerate VMware perception shift from virtualization technology provider to strategic technology partner. This campaign showcases the full range of "wares" we offer, and the organizations and people we enable. Because VMware is more than virtual machines. It's Secureware. Futureware. Delivering better-healthcare-ware. In fact, it's Everyware.

Apple Music (2016)
Apple dominated the transition from physical to digital music. But when Beats was acquired, iTunes was in decline. The remedy was obvious: the company should deemphasize iTunes and plow money into the on-demand streaming service, changing the way people access and listen to music.

"Siri" 2011
Consumers love Apple's 'elitist' celebrity Siri ads. The ads scored 653 and 645 on Ace Metrics' scale (Ms. Deschanel scored even higher) compared with Apple's average score of 620. Although Siri itself is primarily viewed as a flop, Apple's Siri campaign featuring Samuel L. Jackson and Zooey Deschanel proved to be highly effective.

Looked at the data for accounts who visited our VBC. We had always treated the VBC as a service bureau - 1st come, 1st served. [CLICK to build "1.9X"] Data showed that when we hosted a practitioner, the resulting deal size was 1.9X the size of a deal w/o a VBC visit. [CLICK to build "2.5X"] When the contact was a decision-maker - at the C-level - the deal size jumped to 2.5X! VBC visits are a finite asset - now we look at these more strategically.
New Brand
Steve Jobs called for a redesign of the apple logo wanting it to be more iconic Apple's new rainbow logo and Garamond typeface both became iconic and were used until 1998 Apple becomes a household name. Surveys show that public awareness rose from 10 percent to 80 percent in 1981.

Apple 5 (2012)
The 30-second short advertisements simply focus on specific aspects of why the new device (which doesn't look terribly different from the two generations of iPhone before it) is indeed better than what you've seen come out of Apple before. "Thumb" highlights the increased screen size, using an appendage as an appropriate yardstick to gauge its utility. The campaign was clearly a success because the iPhone 5 reached record sales, of most iPhones ever sold in opening weekend.
Apple 1
The Apple I was an innovative computer for its day because it used fewer parts than anything in its class.
Apple II
The Apple II would become the first mass-marketed personal computer, and it took Apple to a new level of success. From the beginning, Apple presented itself as a producer of personal computers. But there was no actual need (no, not demand, need!) for them. So, over the years, Apple focused on creating a "need" for people to have personal computers. For most people, Apple products seemed expensive and unnecessary. Apple's ads tried to make its products look useful and to demonstrate that you don't need to be a rocket scientist to use a computer - here we find the roots of the idea of "simplicity."
"Ipod Silhouette" 2003
The Magazine Publishers of America awarded TBWA/Chiat/Day the $100,000 Grand Prize Kelly Award for its Apple iPod 'Silhouette' campaign that shows simplistic, dark silhouettes dancing with iPods against brightly colored backgrounds. It demonstrated that you don't have to spend a lot of time talking about features to get people to make a human connection with your product.
"lemmings" 1985 - Macintosh office
The ad that almost killed Apple.Super Bowl follow up to "1984" created by TBWA/Chiat/Day.The commercial was such a flop that Apple considered running a public apology for it. Ran pre-ad warning "If you go to the bathroom during the fourth quarter you'll be sorry." Apple tried to go after business users which they showed as being mindless, drones, but they consequently insulted their key audience.
new ads
The company's early ads were rich with information and instruction on how to use the new technology. Apple, in many ways, served as one the first public "computer educators. slogan - A is for Apple The first signs of Apple's simple ethos and design philosophy. Highlighted Apple's appeal to creative types, in contrast to the more business-like approach of its competitors.
Vincero Watches Success Story Extending across borders with Facebook worldwide location targeting
The direct-to-consumer luxury watch and sunglasses brand wanted to increase website sales and reach more potential customers using Facebook's worldwide location targeting option. By doing so, Vincero Watches could showcase its brand and products on a wide scale.
"hello" 2007
The genius of Apple's attention to design is the fact that the company no longer releases products that require instructions. They are so well designed that consumers can figure them out intuitively without reaching for the manual. As the product interfaces have gotten simpler, so has the advertising. One feeds the other. The product is its own marketing, and vice versa. Apple has achieved the kind of brand-product synergy that most companies only dream about.
1990's iMac
The iMac started a trend in the computer industry similar to what General Motors did in the 1920's - when all cars were black and in some danger of eventually becoming undifferentiated commodities. GM began to produce them in color and introduced elements of style. This createsbrand distinctiveness, added value and period obsolescence(style change).
iPhone 5s (2014)
The minute-long advertisement doesn't focus on the product attributes as much as how the product can be integrated into, and enhance, life - essentially reiterating and re-emphasizing how Apple is a lifestyle brand as much as it is about function, user-friendliness, and aesthetics.
"1984" commercial - Macintosh
This critically acclaimed Super Bowl commercial from TBWA/Chiat/Day was based off George Orwell's novel Nineteen Eighty-Four. Saving humanity from conformity, dystopian future (IBM vs Apple) A key moment for Apple, 1984 became one of the most popular TV commercials in history.
