Well, the time has come. It’s been a long month of creepy moustaches here at the Carrot office and we’re strangely sad to see it end. To celebrate Movember we gathered the guys for one last shot and included a few enthusiastic Carrot girls as well. Big thanks to Bear Witness Pictures for helping with these photos! And please remember to donate to the cause. Today is your last day! A huge thanks to everyone who has supported… Continue Reading

Facebook’s Updated Insights
Facebook announced a plethora of impressive updates during F8 last month. However, did you know that Facebook also silently rolled out a massive update to their Insights dashboard? This updated dashboard now allows brands to improve their measurement of not just their Facebook Page, but of the social plug-ins on their websites as well. With the new update, a Page admin that has claimed Insights for a particular domain will be able to collect granular data for that domain’s… Continue Reading
F8: What’s Launching

Baby Carrot Takes on SXSWi
I recently had the opportunity to attend the South by Southwest Interactive conference in Austin, TX. I went as both a Carrot representative and a fresh-faced 20-something attending her first conference. I had way too much fun (I’m still exhausted) and learned a lot about conferences. Of course, most of my learning did not happen at the panels or lectures, but from the people I met and the misadventures I got into. Now, I’m obviously no expert and my suggestions… Continue Reading
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
Ford Listens
Back in July Carrot Creative launched a tab for the Ford Explorer Facebook page. A few months later, AdAge named Ford “Marketer of the Year” – that was awesome. So when Team Detroit called us back for another project we danced in a circle, did some push ups to burn off some of the excitement then picked up the phone to hear about the next big project. What exactly are we working on? The 2012 V6 Mustang. An absolute classic,… Continue Reading

Birdz in Brooklyn
Bobby, Sean and I went down to the waterfront between the Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridges today at lunch… beautiful weather, blue skies, killer birds… Yes, there were birds of prey about. Ok, they were chained to posts by the ankle, but still very much alive and awesome! A raptor exhibit-bus was near the park for an informational show about Hawks, Owls and even a Bald Eagle… there were a bunch of school children trying to crowd us, so we did… Continue Reading
