We received a remarkable spot from Jim Kipping of Emmis in Austin today. Big kudos to Jim and Emmis/Austin AE, John Defee.
Here’s what Jim said about it:
“Many local direct clients furnish their own copy for local produced commercial content. This was the case in point with one of our clients, Intelligent office. The original copy contained quite a bit of ad speak, and featured “acted” testimonials from business professionals. It wasn’t that the spot was a bad spot, but it tended to blend in and not get noticed. Plus, I try to steer clients away from any type of staged or non real people in ads when it comes to testimonials. Many times, they tend to not be written the way real people speak and ultimately the listener can tell they are not authentic. After cutting the client supplied spot and putting it on the air, they just weren’t getting any calls. (more…)
