Create a marketing campaign in 60 seconds

February 5, 2010 | By Scott Winning

Stuck for an idea for your next marketing campaign? Short on the cash to fund it?
Pick a card.

Elaborate professional marketing is mostly out of bounds for startups and SMEs. While many resources are available to the small business owner, it often come down a question of available time. This is where a novel product from Australian-based marketing company ChildsPlay Marketing can come in handy.

ChildsPlay Marketing Cards comprises three decks of cards and 125,000 marketing ideas. The first deck helps you identify a target audience. The second proposes possible promos, sales and services. And the third suggests communication vehicles.

This might appear a little too un-scientific to create a mind-blowing, knock-their-socks-off marketing campaign, but it could well help you break through those marketing mental block moments while still keeping all those other business balls in the air.

    This is excellent! We’re looking at running a couple of marketing campaigns this year to attract some growth at my job, and this might very well come in handy – thanks Scott!

    It looks like “very similar” to AdPack, developed about 5 years ago by a guy in Perth.

    Maybe they should have used their own product to come up with something original.

    Although, I think their price point is more reasonable.

    this is brilliant. i think the value as you said, is in opening the mind and simplifying marketing ideas down to the basics.

    Just to confirm Wes.

    James + I were referring to a twitter convo/message …

    I am working with the AdPack guys mentioned above, on an iPhone app that will be out in a few weeks; pending apples approval process.

9 things a 9 month-old can teach you about online marketing [VIDEO]

This morning, I sat down with my 9-month old son, Julian, to feed him breakfast. This is one of the jobs allocated to me as a first-time, new father. Remembering the arduous steps required to complete yesterday morning’s meal (and the day before that), and contemplating how bizarre it is that I must work so hard to provide him something that will make him stronger and healthier and happier, I began to think about online marketing. Yes, the brain works in mysterious ways. (And I am kind of sleep deprived.)
