What are everyone's thoughts on businesses adding some sexual innuendos to their branding? Especially when their product isn't sexy at all? I'm thinking it's not a great idea but what better way to capture the attention of an audience on a crowded social media site?

It depends on three things:

1. Does it appeal to the target audience?
2. Does it fit the brand’s character?
3. Does it suit the channel being used?

My opinion doesn’t matter.

Yeah i think these are the right questions to ask. Finding something that fits the brand's character seems most important to me ALTHOUGH, if you do something spicy and out of character that can sometimes drum up publicity. So just depends on what you're going for I geuss

That all depends on a lot of factors. First and foremost, I think whether or not it's funny matters most. Double-entendre humor can be brilliant, or it can just come off as crude or raunchy. And if the innuendos really don't fit with the product, it's probably just going to bomb. It might grab attention, but for all the wrong reasons.

Oldest trick in the book. Hell, most brands skip the whole innuendo part and slap their audiences in the face with the sexual context. I think it can be effective when done in a somewhat clever manner. Don’t just stuff you ads or branding with slightly sexual content just for the heck of it you know.

Any SAP analytics cloud developer here? Quick query, client wants a column root causes ..now this column is not available in S/4..now the S/4 team is not cooperative enough.

My leads suggested SAC has comments option. However comments are not going to help users either. Because it will not show graphically which root causes contribute the most.

So my question is now, does SAC have an in built excel option which would allow users to enter root causes across materials and then SAC refresh this

I want to know why recruiters ask me in an interview if I am looking at other opportunities, or if I am interviewing at other companies. If I say yes they will ask at what stage I am.

I went through six rounds of interviews including putting together a 30 minute presentation which I presented to the whole team. The whole process took about six weeks. I turned down another lead position at a different company waiting. After all that they told me that hiring for this role was on hold until further notice. At the end of the day it’s business, but I am left feeling like I wasted my time (and theirs.)Totally confused and disheartened by this process. Anyone else experiencing this?

Any tips on how to deal with this…my entire team was let go today (was 5, now just me). We functioned as the Marketing team for 4 brands and primarily focused on product launches and sustaining social media content. My plan moving forward is to only focus on the top revenue driving product launches for now and say “no” to basically everything else. Would love to hear from anyone who has been in a similar situation and can offer some advice.
