This was the first time yours truly dared to step into the shoes of a German copywriter. I put up posters around Frankfurt mentioning frequently used gender-biased words, prompting a break from mansplaining. Readers could also help themselves to a chocolate bar (labelled #NoMansplaining).
LEARNING
People like free chocolate but won’t Tweet unless told.
RESULTS
200 chocolate bars distributed, a memorable chat with an
8-year old girl and 3 very pissed-off elderly men.

Record your crit
Ideally, this would be a feature for portfolio websites that'll allow for recording an audio book crit. Just pressing the button would start the recording, picking up a CD's comments as he/she rips through a folio... nah. If you're reading this and you know how to code, I'd love to have a chat because I've no clue how to make this work.
