So we skipped the sweaty-beer-bottle close-ups. We passed on the picture-perfect yogurt families from “by-the-book” briefs that had never met a real human being. What always got us out of bed was a real person — someone who can change the world around them, and change themselves along the way. Through a product, a brand, a conversation. Maybe that’s why we were the first in Russia to make public service ads — and to make advertising itself serve the public. That’s what people have come to us for ever since. Come on in. Change and be changed. Make an impact that’s personal, social, and always, always human.
nobody had heard the word “impact,” and asking “So what are we actually changing?” got us blank stares from the Kotler crowd
