This year it will be back in New York at one of the most spectacular corporate offices in the country — Bloomberg Global Headquarters.

An Inspired Surprise from Our Biggest Fans Yet
Back in September, I was invited to speak to a former Carrot’s class at Syracuse University. We all know I never miss an opportunity to speak about Carrot Creative, inspire young, impressionable minds, and comb for talent, so I hopped on a prop plane bound for ‘Cuse. I was ecstatic to find that the students seemed to really get what I was saying. Carrot Creative has worked hard to create the kind of culture we boast today. We manage this… Continue Reading

Do You Have an App for That?
Last week, I was in Las Vegas for CES, the major, mind-blowing trade show centered around consumer electronics. Besides going for the barrage of product previews and launches, I was asked to speak on two panels to share my expertise on mobile apps: “Apps, Apps Everywhere” (moderated by Veronica Belmont) and “Do You Have an App for That?” in Kodak’s K-Zone. The “Apps, Apps Everywhere” panel happened on Thursday morning and we touched on several key points that were very… Continue Reading

The Bearded Rookie; Welcome Adam Katzenback
We’ve effectively crossed off three things from the Carrot’s needs list, all with the hiring of one very bright man. First, we’ve fulfilled our beard quota. It’s not that we Carrot men can’t grow facial hair (on the contrary; last year we raised over $600 sprouting mustaches to knock out cancer)…it’s just that many of us can’t quite pull the look off without resembling a mythic beast of the northern woods. Second, we kept our promise to continue hiring people… Continue Reading

Speaking at the Facebook Developer Garage
Last night I had the pleasure of speaking at the Facebook Developer Garage hosted at The Sullivan Room. This meant a lot to me as I had spoken at the very first Garage here in New York two years ago hyping up the newly developed The Lotto application that we had built and wanted to meet with the up and comers. In fact, it’s where I met a former Carrot employee and one of my closest friends today. Last night,… Continue Reading

@Brand @Fail @What?
We’ve read about it all week. The uproar of Twitter users complaining publicly about the recent change by Twitter to replies. The public apology from Twitter. The questions. Yes We Get It. But, what affects us here at >carrot creative the most—explaining this to the brands. The brands that we JUST signed up to jump into Twitter because frankly, tweeting their name is a great way to get exposure, share links, engage—you know the deal. We’ve signed them on because… Continue Reading
