Goodvertising: Creative Advertising that Cares

Description

Can advertising be a force for good? Can it bring about positive social or environmental change? Should it tell the truth about a brand? With today's consumers being more informed, empowered and ethically minded than ever, advertising needs to do all those things and more. No longer can an agency simply state that their client's brand or product is good: the advertising has to communicate that the client is actively being and doing good. Goodvertising showcases outstanding creative work from over 120 campaigns from around the world, organized into ten commitment chapters. Each campaign is from a leading agency working in the full spectrum of media channels for an international array of clients, be they corporations or charities.

Thomas Kolster is a Danish media and advertising strategist and founder of the creative agency Inkognito.

Hundreds of color illustrations enhance this volume, which should appeal to readers interested in learning how advertising can play an important role in discussing ideas, not just selling products or services.-- "Choice"
