Tribal Caribbean Thought Leadership

[Mez]

Hello Everyone.

Some of you may or may not know but I am affiliated with the recently opened digital marketing firm Tribal DDB Caribbean.

Part of my job is keeping up with advertising, part of it is keeping up with technology and all of it is keeping up with people.

For the years i've been active/inactive on this site I've found that there are quite a few intelligent and varied personalities around the site and there's also notnice and captainawesome.

But what i'd like to do is start asking your opinions on local webtrends, ads and social media gaffs/brilliance.

I post often enough on our website www.tribalcaribbean.com so you can feel free to chat bout it here or there.


Part of our goal is to not only be the best, but to raise the standard of digital marketing all round.

Decent enough article, a few things i would like to have seen in it:
1)A bit more on how it started; who was the first to do it/what was their reasoning
2)Where the in-game advertising model could be heading
3)Some more of the writer's opinion on the in-game advertising model, or personal suggestions.

Other than that, good article, closer to a summary of the original report which saves a bunch of reading.

For the site itself though, i read it at work on a 17" monitor and had an issue with the amount of scrolling; it doesn't seem perfectly optimized to fit a smaller screen. I like the idea of the mid-page open and close articles(not sure of the technical name) but that increases the scrolling too heh. Maybe reduce the whitespace on the page (in-game advertising? ).

That's just my personal opinion and others might feel different. Keep up the good work.

Much appreciated on the feedback. I try to post and relate it to local markets. Our international office gives a short summary of cool things and I just try to relate some of it.

Excellent article. I am surprised to hear that they don't open late, thought that was the whole point of securing that location.

I've been wondering about the market capacity for fast food. With the increasing number of burger restaurants such as burger king, wendys etc. The market could get saturated with those burgers often charging a hefty price.

Well, a lot of Trini's eat during/after parties hence the proliferation of gyromen etc.
I thought they would open late as well but I guess not. Maybe Oversight maybe strategy. Interested to find out which one.

Could be strategy, perhaps they are trying to align themselves with the lunchtime crowd during the day and families in the evening. Would be interisting to see how they would handle late night drunk people.
