Over the past two decades, VI Marketing and Branding’s fans have always discussed our content throughout Oklahoma City, but, until social media, we were unable to narrow down those VI “ambassadors".

The awards kicked-off with the premiere of Jabee’s “So Cool" music video (production via Robot House Creative) depicting a fresh and “gritty" Oklahoma City, which featured Jabee hitting the stage for a live performance during the song’s second half. The now-crowded Coca Cola Event Center was amped with energy, and it was…"so cool"

VI Marketing and Branding is headquartered in Oklahoma City but also has two other offices regionally; one in Kansas City and also one in Colorado Springs.

Chances are you didn’t see the best Super Bowl commercial (featuring Will Ferrell) as it only aired in the country’s second smallest market…North Platte.

We’ve had a copywriting/production intern that began the same week as I did in Oct. 2011. His name is Mark Hill. What you won’t read in Mark’s bio is his willingness to let me drag him to Thai Kitchen for lunch sometimes.

Our next blog (in a series of “new intern" posts) features Geraldine Lartey. Gearldine will be interning at VI throughout the Spring semester. Welcome aboard!

It’s the beginning of the spring semester for all those out there that still have to buy textbooks. This usually means some are clamoring to try and find an internship to give that extra hands-on experience that textbooks just can’t deliver.

JWT Intelligence, who’s in the marketing research business, issued it’s 2012 forecast that showed continued economic uncertainty, new technology and the idea of shared responsibility would drive emerging trends this year.

We were asked a question from Ron Cariker (@7mediagroup) on Twitter, “What’s @thevibrand thoughts on mbl w/ ur clients?" (In reference to a SMS campaign by Do Something - ow.ly/8xQqx)

I asked our newest employee (started Monday), Cinematographer/Editor Matt Lowery, do shoot me a short bio for the VI Blog. Below is straight from the man himself.

I have been asked (and participated) in numerous social media speaking opportunities. This is not to say I am headlining major conventions or anything, but speaking to groups and participating on panels on the workings of social media.
