It's all about "You" these days, isn't it?
Last year "You" uncovered a few customer service nightmares and Time Magazine names "You" Person of the Year. Then, AdAge names "You" Agency of the Year. Now, "You" are creating ads for the Super Bowl, the biggest advertising showcase in the world. "You" have become quite the celebrity.

It's not really all that hard, but it requires letting go of some old habits and trying a new approach. The brands that can adapt will harness the considerable influence "You" now represent.
