About One Minute Briefs:
One Minute Briefs utilises Twitter as our main platform to share fantastic and fun ideas that are produced from constant engagement and user generated content. This is created and shared virally by followers from the creative industry and us.
This way of thinking can benefit the creative industry whilst also being great fun as it forces you to rely on your creative instinct. The beauty of One Minute Briefs is that the ideas that come out of them can be really really shit or really really good. But you’ve only spent one minute on it so it’s all good whatever happens. We often find that the first idea you have is the best.
One Minute Briefs has grown at an amazing rate on Twitter and become hugely interactive with thousands of views, posts and shares. Not only is it hugely viral but also the perfect platform to submit and receive feedback on quick ideas, while also pushing ideas in front of brands and making a difference across the world for good causes and topical issues. It has also become a brilliant educational tool for young creatives and a way for more senior creatives to increase confidence in their ideas.
We have performed talks and workshops at various events such as The Art of New Business at LBi London, Freshtival, D&AD and Manchester Talent Day. Most recently we spoke at the BBC Promax UK event on the same card as Sir John Hegarty and legendary director Tony Kaye. Not only have we been given these incredible opportunities, but also as a result of them we’ve gained exposure across the world as well as being featured in The Drum, New York Times and Buzzfeed. OMB recently won 5 Fresh Awards, got to the final 30 out of 1000 businesses in the Pitch UK, were finalists in the Great British Entrepreneur awards and have just been chosen by Theo Paphitis as one of his #SBS business winners. This all helps to build content that feeds back into creating an engaging and interactive Twitter feed. Having a physical and a social online presence makes us very approachable and we have met a lot of our followers as a result, hosted events and made a lot of real friends from it. We feel that this is an important part in it being a social network for like minded creatives.
