Alexandre Kazuo Kubo and Lucas Ribeiro are Associate Creative Directors at McCann New York. Recently, they published a guide on having and expressing award-winning advertising ideas. It's relatively rare for employed big-agency creatives to publish like this so I took the opportunity to get them to talk us through their free guide while forcing them to indulge me in my love of Brazil and Brazil funk. Their guide is here: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1Vv4yXzNDyDnoaAdDKTh_2W99OrzNZRy_Y_j1feoanx8/edit?pli=1#slide=id.g2ad8616ace2_0_96 Lucas is here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucasantunesribeiro/ Kazuo is here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexandre-kazuo-kubo-33189177 Mark is here: http://www.instagram.com/markpollard

There was a time on LinkedIn that was before Alex M H Smith and a time on LinkedIn that was after Alex M H Smith. Every week, tens of thousands of people now see Alex's posts about strategy in their feed but it wasn't always this way. In this episode, we discuss what Alex is up to and how he uses social media. We were going to talk about some of his strategy posts and thoughts but...I actually don't talk to many people about social media so we kept the conversation there.
