Change is for Ad Agencies
One of the most frequent questions I’m asked is “what are ad agencies doing to change?” The question is often followed up by a comment regarding the drastic need for agencies to change in order to remain relevant. There are at least a zillion articles on this topic so you’d have to be a complete cave dweller not to have seen something on this. Read More

Customer Care? I don’t think so!
I’ve been dealing with a large copier manufacturer – a household name in copiers. They are a nightmare from hell. Their service is dismal and they find endless ways of charging us extra when we call for things that should have been part of a normal maintenance program. Read More

Santa Claus is an Expert in Experience Design
There was always something magical and amazing about Santa’s visit at our house when we were kids. Our family would go to church and then celebrate our gift-giving and togetherness as our own family unit on Christmas Eve so that on Christmas Day we could pack into the car and make the drive to Grandparents’ and Relatives’ houses. I loved starting off the evening with church and Christmas songs and the spiritual side of Christmas. It made it all the more real, and let us all be together.

Keep your Eyes Open
A few weeks ago, on a particularly frigid and windy Omaha day, I attempted to withdraw $200 from a drive-through ATM. As the money was coming out of what my children seem to believe is “the magic money machine,” a freaky gust of wind came between my hand and the ATM, literally blowing my ten $20 bills into the air and across the parking lot of the bank. After failing to get my car door open with the 2 inches available between my car and the ATM, Read More
