PR Newswire -- July 27, 2010





NEW YORK, July 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Building on David Ogilvy's publishing legacy, Ogilvy & Mather is launching, The Red Papers, an ongoing series of books on the trends driving the future of marketing, authored by Ogilvy executives from around the world.



Global CEO Miles Young, who conceived of the series and serves as its editor in chief said, "As we emerge from the recession, it's important that this industry explain what it does again. The 'Red Papers' are a response to the times, the worst of times just passed, and, I believe the best of times to come. They are not afraid to express points-of-view -- just as David Ogilvy would have expected."



The Red Papers, published quarterly, will encapsulate the transformative thinking Ogilvy undertakes. The series launches this week with two Papersthat offer innovative, counter-intuitive takes on two of the key issues in business today: social media and data analytics.



In Socialize the Enterprise,John Bell, head of Ogilvy's 360 Degree Digital Influence group and a trailblazer in social media, digital media, and word-of-mouth-marketing, provides a rationale and framework for integrating social media into companies and brands at the enterprise level, enabling senior managers to implement and manage profitable, measurable social media programs. Mr. Bell is also a Professor at Johns Hopkins University and blogs at johnbell.typepad.com.



In Learning to Read the River, Dimitri Maex, a pioneer in data analytics who runs Ogilvy's top-ranked Global Data Practice, illustrates how a new understanding of the power of data can unlock hidden ROI in any organization. Mr. Maex is the author of a forthcoming book on data analytics and has been profiled in Fortune Magazine as "the future of advertising."
