I was at the Google Partners Nigeria official launch in Lagos yesterday with my colleague, Ehima Prince, our in-house UI/UX genius. We ate a lot of finger foods, drank (non-alcoholic ?) cocktails and mingled with like-minds from other agencies.

- Make people feel something
- Emotions are more powerful than logic
- Emotional content generates more impact
- Emotional content is more likely to go viral
- Emotional content drives more short term sales as well as long-term equity.

- Integration strategies are not easy but are often better
- Integration of offline and online communication tactics improves ROI

- It’s not only about the clicks, it’s about the impression youR make.
- Analysis shows that only 0.3% of users interact with online banner ads.
- Bad creatives are one of the main causes of the user’s less interaction with ads.
- Clicks don’t mean impact.
- Non-clicks doesn’t mean no impact.
