JJTV #88 – SxSW Redux

My thoughts from my virgin visit to SxSW:

  1. The surprising at&t coverage (and reasons why...)
  2. Has SxSW jumped the shark?
  3. Invasion of the Marketers (coming soon...)
  4. Content is Clown
  5. It's all about the relationships

JJTV #81 – at&t Flips The Funnel (or at least attempts to)

AT&T's gets a lot of flack about it's poor customer service, lack of service etc etc. And most of it is deserved.

...but here's a case where at&t appears to be taking proactive steps to avoid "brand mutiny" i.e. when the iPhone opens up to competitive carriers.

It involves a proactive example of how they're using A.D.I.A. (Acknowledgment, Dialogue, Incentivization, Activation) to flip the funnel.

Check it out.

JJTV: #76 – X misses the spot with Comcast’s new name

Xfinity is Xcruciating. It's like AT&T changing it's name to XCingular and then back to the Xat&t.

Instead of pumping hundreds of millions of dollars into convincing us you've changed (when in actual fact, you haven't), why not just change? Why not invest that money into better customer service and better customer experience?

Or if all else fails, just crowdsource it all.

JJTV #67- Accenture the negative

I wonder if there will be any backlash against Accenture for pulling their sponsorship of Tiger Woods. It shows how fickle and spineless this brand really is....with you during the good times; first to bolt when things get hairy.

JJTV #55 – VoIP about face on the iPhone

Apple and AT&T's decision to reverse VoIP restrictions on the iPhone shows the power of open vs closed environments, as well as the continued rise and ubiquity of wi-fi access.
