Apple - Online Shopping - Dumb Ways to Die (6x2)
Air date: Sep 18, 2013
This week Apple launched two new iPhones to a seemingly underwhelmed marketplace. On Gruen Planet, we revisit what, only a couple of years ago, was the world’s shiniest brand. Is Apple’s formulaic marketing now working against it? Is it a victim of its own hubris? How are the other players in the smartphone marketplace exploiting Apple’s vulnerability?
Also, ‘Dumb Ways To Die’ is the most awarded ad in this history of this planet. The chirpy, quirky little YouTube clip for Melbourne’s Metro Trains has had more than 60 million views. Why does it work? How do you keep the awareness growing? If the death toll doesn’t fall, can it really be called a success?
