Mind Catching Ad
Im just a slaes guy – who loves cheap (smart) ways to get lots of attention – and here is one more of the ads that I really like. Try to show it to a kid – and he/she will refresh for hours…
Its not original – but what the heck – when the #1 Danish advertising agency can do 15mio$ profit from producing the same ad in different skins for 20 years 
What A Day – Im hammered
Today I had a 100% fantastic expirience. I was invited to the FREEWAY BAD ASS CAMP – where this Danish online empire -> Number one in Dating, Auctions, Partyphotos (new category), Teen Flirting and much more. Henrik, Morten and UPDATE (Morten Sr. is also a very important part) started this as a garage project 9 years ago – and today they have the most sexy and profitable online/media company in the world (looking at impact pr. capita – pitty its only present in Denmark). The 15 companies they own – always with 51% minimum – are all build with fokus on social/community features and paying subscribers – even the auction site has 33%+ paying subscribers – and now they are starting to see the advertising revenue kicking – and THEY CANT STOP SMILING – they feel its FREE PROFIT – nearly too easy. Wow – I wish I had made some video – but Im having a PODCASTING MENTAL BLOCK – I simply dont feel comfortable taking out the cam – darn…
So anno 2007 – hearing these hot hot companies and the 3 majority owners and 20 minority owners (all web entrepanuers to the bone) – speak and discuss and exchange knowledge was like being in heaven for me. And when i gave my shameless selfpromoting presentation – I had to jump over all 12 slides about – >”Just do it” -> “Act” -> “Imagine how cool its would be” – because these guys where allready many times there…
And then on top of all this – we where picked up in Wagner Jr. plane – it was my first time in such a small plane – and I got totally – high.
HelloWeb now public
Formerly known as Jull og Stejle – and with a history going back to 1992 – HelloWeb – is now a part of HelloGroup. I cant wait to see what will happen when this giups turs just one year old in July – its good people and powerfull execution. Personally Im very much looking forward to the days when they can do more stuff for LundKenner…
Creativity
This really hit a soft spot in my brain – I just like it.

I just saw all the adds - from the world biggest media event – and every thing SUCKS – exept from- Coke vgame, one GM, goDaddy (the do call to action ) and Coke Bottle History.
Next year – I would buy all the space – and hire Balder Olrik by know to do them all – if I was NFL – and then sell them on eBay – including SPOT. Bear, Recruiting, Car, Softdrink – go Balder – just produce them whitelabel – and the photoshop will do the rest. See Balders famous BullGuard movies once more

I love Hjem.dk – specially the people
Hjem.dkis a killer oldshcool web1.0 (i luuuve that) e-commerce website – with indredible traction. As always its about people and Thomas Dybdal is just a true master. Apparently he has a past as a soccer patriot 
after Denmark became European champions in 1992

Off course its mostly because I liked Melrose Place in the 90′eis and was in love with Heather Locklear (Ive always had superb bad taste in tv, movies and music). But its also because you can make supercool design skietches on interior design – when you are a marketing/advertising company like HELLO.
- and actually people are serious about it.
I LOVE IT – chekc this out <- fixed - stellar!
Best Thing After Sliced Bread
Ive had quite some ventures and Ive consulted as many. But nothing ever took of like our Advertising/Consulting company – where Soren and Jakob Langemark just hires the best people and gets the most amazing accounts. Langemark is one of those few Danes who can really make it MEGA BIG. And I cant express how proud I am to work with him.
Even though he cant find a name for our agenzy
