Wewantworkwith

By Tim Denyer

At 1000heads we pride ourselves on always keeping our eyes, ears and mouths open. So we’ve launched @wewantworkwith; a profile that will chart our thoughts on how brands and people can make themselves more conversational.

Some of our ideas will be reactive, such as recommending how GAP could have used the snow to their advantage, by building snowmen outside each major store and dressing them in the hottest GAP winter wear.

Or they could be proactive, such as suggesting that Laterooms might use geo-location services to connect people looking for space in the same place.

We know that not all ideas will be relevant or right for the brand (summing these ideas up in 140characters is difficult enough let alone nailing what each brand is after), but then creating perfect strategies isn’t the point of the initiative. Instead, we hope the ideas we come up with will drum up discussion and get more people thinking about the opportunities word of mouth can present.

This might seem a little anti-intuitive, as traditionally, agencies are notoriously close-lipped about brands they want to work with, or their creative ideas. But we’re not a traditional agency.

Please dive in, take our ideas and run with them, debate, disagree and retweet. Let’s have a conversation.
