50 People. One Question.

A fundamental element of the SUBSCRIBERS RULE! philosophy is the notion that people are individuals, and that marketers need to leverage technology to treat them as such.  Accordingly, I love it when I stumble across items that have absolutely nothing to do with email marketing but help hammer home the point that we all have different hopes, dreams, wants, and needs.

Previously in the pages of SR!, we’ve linked to videos from Microsoft, The Atlantic, and yes, even ExactTarget, that tap into the power of individuality.  Today’s video comes from Fifty People One Question, a project of creative shop Crush+Lovely, in which they ask fifty people the same question:

Where would you wish to wake up tomorrow.

As you might imagine, the answers are varied, thought-provoking, and often inspirational.  Take a look for yourself:

A big hat tip to David Mead (@DavidMead) for sharing the video.

And for the record, my wish would be to wake up with my family and a day of nothing to do but play outside.  Of course, that could be the Cleveland winter shut-in in me talking!

Feel free to share your wishes in the comments.

    Where would I like to wake-up tomorrow? Wow, a very interesting question I should have been asked myself many years ago.. and afterwards repeated that same question every day… Makes you think about where you came from and where you want to go…I really found the video very refreshing and lovely to meet all those regular people you normally would pass by, struggling with those same questions…and coming up with different answers or no answers at all. That is way of life!
