The Drum magazine:
28 September 2012

A taster of what's in our latest issue out Friday 28 September 2012

Creative Review:

The Works – Cover Story 

Ideas are at the heart of this issue of The Drum, with a special edition of The Works showcasing the Assorted Nuts Project – a photographic celebration of some of the greatest creative thinkers in British advertising, including Sir John Hegarty, Charles Saatchi and Rory Sutherland, to name a few.

Apps focus

In a continuation of our mobile supplement in August, we publish a special apps feature, looking at how brands can successfully implement apps as part of mobile strategy. We look at the role apps are playing in getting consumers back into stores, and speak to the head of American Airlines' mobile app team to find out how the brand is soaring ahead of competitors with its app and mobile strategy.

Is performance marketing still grubby?

Performance used to have a bad rep. But is it still the case? Performance marketing consultant Mary Keane-Dawson investigates.

Inbound Marketing 

The philosophy of inbound marketing lies in encouraging consumers to find brands, rather than brands interrupting them. The Drum explores this discipline further.

Pussy Riot Challenge 

When The Drum tasked agencies with a creative challenge in aid of the Pussy Riot appeal, they responded in droves. Here we take a look at some of the entries.
