‘what if?’ the magical question for insane creativity..

Just love pure creativity, where ever I see.. ‘What if?’ is the magical question to create insane experiences, and then obsessive attention to detail..

reminded of the chaand/mars video we did.. imagining Indian train travellers in space.. Yashaswi Dev Devanshu Biswas .. can’t wait to jam on more such scenarios

*Spotted in a Tokyo mall, Japan is something else

I feel a lot of B2B brands are missing the bus on the LinkedIn video opportunity..

LinkedIn is a video platform same as Instagram or Facebook or TikTok or Twitter.. LinkedIn is like Instagram in a suit..

your audience already has a user behaviour validated by other platforms.. your prospect.. your client on LinkedIn already uses other platforms.. it’s just that the packaging is different on LinkedIn, and never before existed a platform solely for B2B to thrive..

it’s time to focus on creating share worthy content on LinkedIn because it’s not like B2C where we are selling plane tickets.. B2B is like selling the freaking plane and instead of making five follow-up phone calls over six months..let the content do the magic for you..

When your content on LinkedIn becomes part of audience’s lives, speaks to them.. earns their shares and engagement.. it keeps your brand relevant in their life.. so when you call or reach out you’re already relevant and it’s not a cold outreach

Also it’s not about peddling your product videos as video content it’s about creating content which genuinely drives engagement.. the goal is not recall.. it’s about relevance.. it’s about keeping your brand alive in their lives and that happens with engagement the goal is not for them to see your content or get reach.. the goal is for them to save it.. screenshot it.. and share in their peer Whatsapp groups.. that’s the true goal

so if you’re still sitting on the sidelines about content on LinkedIn it’s time to wake up because if you don’t.. your competition will

Your creative team member is ignoring guidelines. How do you steer without stifling?

Creative people thrive on freedom & fun. Rules can limit how far their ideas flow. But here’s the thing: certain structures & best practices provide a foundation to build upon, rather than starting from scratch every time

For someone breaking the rules, going in different directions, I’d say: Encourage it, as experimentation.

Only through experiments do we find unexpected hacks. Give complete freedom to explore all directions during the ideation phase.

Then, when putting the project together, we pick and choose the best ideas while still following the guidelines. A creative person needs both freedom & a little structure. When we balance these, it’s a win-win-win for the project.

Remember, the goal is to enhance creativity, not stifle it

Everywhere I go in Tokyo I see amazing examples of UX done right, even the beer.. ❤️

It’s the little attention to details everywhere, like it’s an obsession, from washrooms to traffic signals to food.. I’ve never had a beer can that transform into a glass, and this was possible all along

It would be amazing to see this obsession with attention to detail across the board in experiences in India.

Even if the government doesn’t do it, brands can, products can, companies can, B2B, B2C, D2C.. all the jim jam.. wherever there’s direct experience..

And focusing to improve little little experiences, because if you give somebody an experience, it’s like the beginning of a relationship. Its all ❤️
