14. THE FUTURE STARTS AT YOUR HOUSE.

15. THE NUMBERS. FOR NOW. TV subscriptions (cable/satellite) are expected to plateau this year at 104 million. OTT platforms will grow as Millennials use them without subscribing to cable/satellite TV, similar to the drop in landline use. Smart TV footprint in the US is expected to rise from 45 million to 78 million by 2018. Vizio, an entry-level brand, estimates 60% of their TV sets shipped today are Smart TVs. December 2014, the footprint of connected game consoles (e.g., PS3/4, Xbox 360/ONE) will be 88 million homes. The 2014 footprint of OTT devices in the US expected to be 47 million, up 100% over last year.

17. THE FUTURE OF MEDIA AGENCIES?

19. EXPERIMENT RELENTLESSLY… FAIL EARLY AND OFTEN

20. USE DATA, BUT APPLY COMMONSENSE

22. ASK PEOPLE QUESTIONS, BUT BE SKEPTICAL.

24. YOU ARE A CONSUMER. USE THE MEDIA.
