Fall is approaching and
as the leaves start to fall, we raked in some of this week’s top communications
news! Below, I rounded up some of my favorite finds from the week.
- Scots Vote on Independence from
the UK – It has been building for
months, and this week Scotland is finally voting on independence from the
UK. While it has been an intense campaign effort on many fronts throughout
Scotland, social media also played its part over the past few weeks – in fact, the debate over
Scottish independence spurred 10 million Facebook interactions in the past
month and a half alone!
- Dancing Traffic Light
Entertains for Safety – The
company behind the original smart car, Smart, recently unveiled its latest
innovation in Lisbon, Portugal – the dancing traffic light. The ad
is part of Smart's #WhatAreYouFor campaign, which emphasizes the company's
dedication to safety. Learn more about this creative
campaign and if a dancing light could be coming to an
intersection near you!

Pre-sale Record – While
it was no surprise when Apple unveiled its latest iPhone last week, the
company was overwhelmed with a record number of pre-orders –more than
four million in the first 24 hours. Bloomberg Businessweek reports that “[Apple]
will likely sell more iPhones this weekend, when retail sales begin, than
on any previous weekend.” Check out the graph of historical
iPhone pre-sales to see how this latest version compares.

in public isn’t natural for everyone, but with a few simple tips, getting
in front of an audience can become easier – and possibly even fun. Review
