Vivid City Appoints Ex-Nike Greater China Marketing Director Danny Lee as Chief Creative Officer

Last Updated: April 6, 2020By Chintan Bharwada

Vivid City, the China Out-of-Home (OOH) advertising agency has appointed Danny Lee to lead creative OOH campaigns in China. The appointment will be effective from 16th March 2020.

Lee previously spent six years with Nike integrating and leading the brand across the Greater China region including the award-winning ‘running makes the world go around’ campaign on one of China’s hero screens – Metro City, a circular screen in Shanghai. Prior to Nike, he had senior roles at Ogilvy, Wunderman and Mindshare.

Danny brings to Vivid City the ability to plan and execute activations, projections and unique builds that will complement Vivid City’s network of LED screens across the Chinese market. Lee said that he is delighted to have the opportunity to work with Vivid City’s clients, “There is no doubt that I am extremely honoured to have the opportunity to serve as Chief Creative Officer of Vivid City. My aim is to offer our clients award-winning and memorable OOH brand experiences across the Chinese market”.

Alistair Ballantyne, Founder and CEO of Vivid City added, “Danny’s previous work in the China region is best in class. We are excited to provide our clients with a creative service that will ensure their campaigns are unique, interactive and have unparalleled visual impact across China’s top tier cities”.

According to a recent Group M brand safety report, there is $18.7billion of online advertising fraud in China making China account for over 80% of the total digital advertising fraud globally. This coupled with the high cost of Chinese TV means the OOH sector looks set for a bright future.

Vivid City is an OOH advertising agency with offices in London and Shanghai.

To achieve better sales and profits, most companies could be doing more to cultivate business from their existing customers. However, enthusiasm for customer-retaining strategies must not endanger sound customer-getting efforts. How companies balance the two is the big question. To intensify reaching old customers while still seeking new ones, for many firms, will mean changes in market analysis, planning systems, management incentives, and marketing and/or operations organization. In the rush toward growth, consumer marketers have tended to regard success as stemming from obtaining new customers while unwittingly minimizing the importance of satisfying old ones. It is time for more companies to distinguish between their getting and retaining functions, to assess the balance between them, and to remedy any deficiencies in customer retention. This process requires management to value the potential of current customers and to treat them in special ways to get them to keep coming back. Several major elements should be part of the new marketing mix for customer retention: Product extras Keeping customers frequently requires giving them more than the basic product that initially attracted them. Product extras for individual customers over time can play a sales-expansive role. Reinforcing promotions Product promotion works better when aimed at existing customers. If a marketer knows who these customers are, benefits can be obtained by giving them reinforcing communications. Sales force connections The sales force can play a decisive role in the customer-retention function. At a retail or service counter the salesperson is the focal point of the company's strategy and is the firm to the customer. Post-purchase communication A company must anticipate that some customers will encounter either minor or serious problems after purchasing. If the firm is not ready to hear and correct these difficulties, the customer may not repurchase or may cancel the the relationship. Whether company or customer is at fault, standby post-purchase activities can be instrumental in saving these customers.
