    Our Mission

    In mid-2009, Social Forces began as a social media agency, immersing ourselves in the world of social media tools, people and possibilities. But we quickly found that "social media support" wasn't really what the industry needed.

    What advertising needed was a fresh, social-savvy perspective. Today, we work with our partners to make every ad "social": worth talking about and easily shared.

    Social isn't our focus. It's our state of mind.

    Destroy 2009

    December 22, 2009 | The Carl Vervisch

    This year, Social Forces is doing something a little different for the holidays. Instead of giving things, we’re destroying things. If you haven’t done so yet, you should check out our Facebook fan page to take part. Tell us what you want to destroy by 5pm on December 30th and we’ll take care of the rest.

    So why are we doing this? Let’s take a look at just a few reasons:

    1. Efficiency – In a global landscape that’s buckling more each day from too much — too much stuff, too much noise, too many people — it’s far more efficient to focus our efforts on removing things we don’t like than to look for things we’re not sure of yet.

    2. Resolution – The New Year’s Resolution is a joke. In all too many cases, there’s no real commitment; no time-frame for completion and no accountability. By setting out for destruction, we must consciously consider the root of what’s holding us back.

    3. Social Forces – This is the “so what does this have to do with Social Media” part. Destroy 2009 will conclude with a ceremonious destruction of all items submitted to the website, but that’s only the beginning. The real destruction, or in other words the real progress, if it is to come at all, will come from movements — from all of us working together toward a better 2010. That force — the power of a community to create the change they seek — is the driving force behind what we do and one of the biggest catalysts for what social media does on a whole.

    With that said… wanna destroy something? Destroy 2009
