Share Post

If you’re Marco, You go to miami ad school’s boot camp for account planning for a “plannatical.”

German account planner Marco Ruckenbrod already had a great job, as a planner at Saatchi & Saatchi. But, like many forward-thinkers, he had to do something to push himself further—to challenge his own status quo.

As Marco puts it, “For me, Miami Ad School’s Boot Camp for Account Planning is a kind of ‘planner sabbatical,’ a way to challenge my current state of mind and get new inspiration.”

Marco decided to share his experiences and inspirations during the boot camp on his Tumblr at plannatical.com. It’s great reading, not only for current or aspiring account planners, but for anyone looking to shake up their own set of preconceived notions.

Posts on Plannatical are called “Catch of the Day #___” and provide a single takeaway from a given 24-our period. Here’s number 20 in the series:

Today, I’d like to share the following very simple but quite exciting thought:

From

brands WITH purpose

to

brands OF purpose.

Well, it’s only one single word changed but this means a lot. It’s an entirely different perspective on how brands should deal with their purpose thinking. Thanks again to our instructor Scott Matyus-Flynn, Head of Strategy at The Republic Of Everyone. This is smart. See the difference?

MADE OF PURPOSE.

Then there is this gem, from “Catch of the Day #05”

“It’s the first school on earth that creates the global creative person, fresh, open, reaching for the stars, breaking through the tyranny of the average, aiming for setting new standards.”

Michael Conrad, President at Berlin School of Creative Leadership and former Chief Creative Officer of Leo Burnett Worldwide
