Do you care that I care about what I care about?
Paul MacFarlane
Business Strategy and Creative Branding: Bringing The Best of Humanity Forward for the global Fortune 500.
I care.
?I care about a lot?of?things.
every day.
every night.
?
here’s one.
I care about type.
not set?too wide?or?too close?or inconsistently
but just right.
with real ’ always – never those ugly '
I do it for myself, for my clients
and for the people who appreciate details, craft and nuance.
?
I care about people.
all people.
I care about myself, my vendors, my partners,
my clients, (duh)
but?definitely?most of all,
I care about the people in the world
who will be seeing, reading, watching, listening to
and experiencing?my thinking and work.
so I put love, meaning and yes, care into every single idea.
ideas with deep and long, positive ripple effects for?
businesses?and brands?who want to make a serious,
meaningful difference.
I care about the world.
I care about the air, water, land, animals, food sources,
policies and media we all absorb.
and I care about the way we gather, interact, support
and join as societies.
I care about pleasantness,
the experience of love,
happiness, well-being, and the young culture values too.
but those call for another missive.
you’ll quickly find out I care about almost everything.
yes, there are some things I don’t care about.

I’m Paul MacFarlane, founder of the 1101 experiment.
global, Fortune 500 – experienced
business and brand consultant.
a consultant with an aim.
?
an aim to work in partnership
with your business or brand,
via one deep question,
one inspiring insight,
one beautiful, socially audacious idea at a time.
?
all to help build your maximum
financial, ethical, social and cultural growth.
?
I have a simple credo:
I want my thinking and work
to be the absolute highlight of?any person’s day.
领英推荐
I want my thinking and our work to inspire,
touch and motivate human beings
with truth, goodness, emotional depth
and enduring meaning.
and all with?great care.
?
?do you care what’s?in it?for?you?
?
well, do you care about clarity, consensus and focus?
do you care about growth, scale, profit and
rapt public enthusiasm?for your business and brand?
excellent.
so first,
I can improve your business plans and models
to create increased growth and scale by owning
a fresh, powerful space in society and culture.
second,
I can make your internal employee culture
more inspired, happy, healthy and inclusive,
bringing you more positive, collaborative energy, effectiveness
and public social appeal.
third,
I can make your brand strategy more powerfully human, emotional and true to your internal employee culture – which you had better care about.
fourth,
I can provide highly disruptive tactical ideas
to differentiate, stand out and break through in
any media, place or space in life.
?
bold type really works, doesn’t it??
all to create true social enthusiasm and growth
based on your business and brand’s
focused, positive, enduring meaning in the world.
I work with businesses, brands, agencies,
CEOs, COOs and CMOs.
anyone who cares about what I care about.
which is what most of the world cares about.
so if “most of?the?world” is a good target audience,
and if?“most?of?the?world” is a decent customer base
for you,?maybe we should talk.
and let’s be clear.
if you care more about data mining
than a human being weeping,
if you care more about a staff?of people copying, pasting and?sharing content online,
than someone suddenly realizing why they’re alive,
then bugger off already.

2 年I care about every pixel even though I’m probably the only one who would notice—that haunting errant square dot. I’ve never made anything perfect, but I try every damn time.
