By 1997, Apple was weeks from bankruptcy. Steve Jobs had returned, the board had been cleared, and the product line was being ruthlessly simplified — but none of that would matter unless the world believed in Apple again. The answer came not from a new product, but from one of the most celebrated advertising campaigns in history.
This episode tells the complete story of 'Think Different' — the campaign that reintroduced Apple to a sceptical world. We go inside Jobs's decision to fire decades-long agency BBDO and hand the account to Chiat\Day, the agency behind the legendary '1984' Super Bowl ad. We examine how the campaign was conceived, how Jobs personally fought to ensure the tagline read 'Think Different' rather than 'Think Differently,' and why the voices of Einstein, Gandhi, Picasso, and Martin Luther King Jr were chosen to carry Apple's message.
Beyond the aesthetics, we analyse what the campaign actually did strategically — shifting Apple's positioning from a computer company to a cultural symbol, rebuilding dealer confidence, and giving employees a reason to believe the company had a future. We also look at Apple's other iconic advertising moments: the '1984' Ridley Scott Super Bowl ad, the iMac's colourful launch, and the silhouetted iPod dancers that defined a generation.
This is the story of how Steve Jobs understood, more clearly than almost anyone in Silicon Valley, that technology companies are ultimately storytelling companies — and that the right story, told loudly enough, can bring a brand back from the dead.
