Dawn Porter: How to end a career in eleven words…
How do you end a career in just eleven words? Well, if you are a journalist / presenter / actress, then these should help.
‘That’s all i ever wanted. A country full of clean bums’.
‘
Baby wipes for adults bums. Fair enough, nothing wrong with that. And don’t get me wrong. I’m not anti-infommercial. Far from it. They’ve not been in fashion these past few years and the FMCG crew have been investing in them again. Which usually means cha ching.
We Brits don’t generally do them quite as ‘HOOOO YAAAAAH’ as our friends from across the pond. But botty wipes? Poor love. She’s only ever going to be known as the arse wipe lady…
Iain G. Morrison has a clean derrière. And will not be starring in a botty wipe infommercial any time soon…

#hardandfast
Apologies for the prolonged radio silence. One’s social media time has been somewhat reduced with a major rebrand under way. Excuses plonked to the side, I shall hastily digress.
Hard and fast?
Get the blood pumping, rocking Bee Gees soundtrack, no kissing, ‘hard man’ Vinnie Jones guide to CPR? All adds up to a rather blistering ad for the British Hard Foundation.
Best ad of 2012 thus far. Saving lives and providing smiles. And the use of a tongue in cheek hashtag ALWAYS gets igmorrison’s vote…
Iain G. Morrison is head of marketing & communications for London’s leading social enterprise. And is a lover of all things #hardandfast

Now we know why Arnie succeeded
Terminator. Bleak landscapes. The machines are winning. Clearly John Connor and his crew were missing a crack team of hamsters.
Yes, I said hamsters…
An amusing little spot from Kia. Certainly made me smile, but certainly wouldn’t get Kia on my consideration list when I’m looking for a new motor. And thanks to the über talented (and design obsessed) @commsgeek for sharing…
Iain G. Morrison is a senior marketer for a leading social enterprise. And might have a script idea for Terminator IV…

Facebook at work?
So, Diesel extend their ‘Stupid’ campaign to Facebook. And if my boss happens by, I’ll be sure to let him know how many ‘likes’ I’ve posted in the past hour…
Iain G. Morrison actually does get paid to spend time on Facebook. So take that Diesel…

T-Mobile (and the Angry birds #fail)
The epic Liverpool Street station flash mob really kicked it off.
Since then we’ve had random punters singing with Pink in Trafalgar Square, a pretend Royal Wedding dance off (a la that wedding dance from the Americans), and now T-Mobile are hijacking the knock down castle game to end all knock down castle games.
I love angry birds (and I don’t mean the ones in the T-Mobile call centres). But this?! All the Saturday night TV ooooooohs and aaaaaaaaaaahs. The forced excitement, the jumping and cheering in unison?
It’s faker than David Cameron offering up a pledge to protect the NHS…
Iain G. Morrison is a Head of Marketing & Communications for a charitable social enterprise. And will be sticking with Angry birds on’t iphone ta very much…

Putting the ‘g’ in igmorrison
People often ask what the ‘g’ stands for in igmorrison.
Many of those that know me assume it stands for gin, as I have something of a fondness for that tipple. (A bottle of Chase will do nicely if anyone’s buying).
So, to a rather lovely spot a talented artist / Brand manager friend brought to my attention this fine day. Aldi; clearly not my supermarket of choice, but I do love this latest spot in their current campaign. And if the next 30 years aren’t kind to igmorrison…
Iain G. Morrison is a gin loving head of marketing…
Go on. Share me...
Royal Wedding?
Another brilliant slice of tomfoolery from the T-Mobile marketing stable…
That Camilla is uncanny. And she did fall at the first fence in the national?
Iain G. Morrison is a settling in the new role. Back to normal service soon. Promise…
Go on. Share me...
The range?
It’s not often I say this.
But I am speechless…
Iain G. Morrison is a tad busy with the new role. Normal service will resume shortly…
Go on. Share me...
Save the NHS…
I care passionately about the NHS.
It’s a remarkable institution and one that should not be allowed to be reformed by a coalition (where neither party elected mentioned gutting it like a fish in their respective manifestos).
This video comes with one of those not suitable for minors / sweary warnings. But I think it sums up how many people feel about Andrew Lansley…
Iain G. Morrison would encourage you all to write to your MP and insist they #savethenhs
Go on. Share me...
Where angels fear to tread…
Very few things about a commute in and out of Victoria can ever be described as angelic. Even if they smell of teenage changing rooms.
So, to Lynx and their recent ambient stuntette…
Despite the exceptionally high production values, I wasn’t the biggest fan of the latest TVC. But I have to say, I am something of a fan of this.
Especially the hip swinging reaction of most men…
Iain G. Morrison mainly recuperating and praising the angels from the NHS this week. Lasnley, if you’re listening, be a love and keep your butchers hands off the finest of British institutions…
Go on. Share me...
