• In the next five years, mobile advertising will grow over 300 
percent from about $13 billion today to just under $40 billion 
• There is still a significant difference between revenue per click 
on mobile and revenue per click on desktop 
• Insight 1: People don’t click on ads on mobile…they explore, 
share and experience content 
Microsoft Confidential
• “Take care of the customers you have, and they’ll bring you 
the customers you want.” 
• A Shift from Campaign to Commitment 
• The End of the TV-Industrial Complex

“Opinionated”

“Poor Time Manager”

Microsoft Confidential 
Socrates and the Socratic Method 
• Shared goals and objectives 
• Shared questions and problems 
• Shared information and data 
• Shared modes of interpreting or judging that 
information 
• Shared specialized concepts and ideas 
• Shared key assumptions 
• A shared point of view (which enables you to 
pursue common goals from a common 
framework)
“First and foremost, [companies] view people as 
rational beings. If you’ve studied a page of 
Western philosophy the last 100 years, you 
would know that’s not the case. It’s a bad 
description of what it means to be human.” 
– Christian Madsbjerg, ReD 
Microsoft Confidential
“Engagement, not solely profit and KPIs linked 
to revenue, is the true currency that people use 
to show their genuine interest and affinity.” 
– Natasha D. Smith, “Engagement: The True 
Currency” 
Microsoft Confidential
“You can analyze the past, but you have to 
design for the future." 
– Edward De Bono, Professor of Thinking 
Microsoft Confidential
How Does Design Apply to Communications? 
Microsoft Confidential
Behavior is the key to 
social by design: 
• The best communications are 
designed around behaviors, not 
technology 
• Allows anyone to be a maker 
• Can be altered to be anything to 
the user because of… 
Microsoft Confidential
Building Value from others Value… 
Microsoft Confidential
Creating value from value others have created 
Microsoft Confidential
Don’t bet on platforms, bet on the behavior…

Remix Culture 
Insight 2: 
“Knowledge and manipulation of 
multi-media technologies is the 
current generation's form of "literacy" 
Microsoft Confidential
Maker (r)Evolution 
Read Only Culture (RO) – Passive consumption 
Read/Write Culture (R/W) – Reciprocal relationship 
between producer and consumer 
Remix Culture (RMX) – Democratization of R/W 
Insight 3: RO culture can’t be measured
