Personal achievements give us the greatest meaning, not material things. But brands in their communication persistently focus exclusively on things, the lecturer emphasized at the beginning, and during the workshop the participants developed ideas with him that brands can contribute to the community and tell a quality story about themselves, noting – the focus must be works, and the words come after.
Dunja Ivana Ballon, CEO of HURA, said: We are tired of declarative statements and exaggerations of brands that are not backed by concrete actions, so we can’t wait to see what fruit the inspiration that our participants brought with them will bear fruit.
Advertising with a purpose in this way gained a number of local representatives, and the excellent mood and conversations about new ideas continued after the workshop itself. Kolster’s immediate approach is certainly an added wind in the back of quality projects and excellent brands of the domestic communications industry.
