Presentation by iSmart Communications

When it comes to making predictions, we're all in the business of throwing darts—whether to our bosses, our investors, or even our loved ones.

And in marketing, we love, love, love our annual predictions.

The very best in the business carefully weigh each dart before they throw it. They toe the line, balance themselves, steady their arm, and fire as straight and as true as they can. But the rest? They're flinging darts against a vague idea of the target after one too many bourbons.

So, being of sober mind despite the raging Boston winter outside, we wanted to take a look back at where the darts landed and try to explain why. we also included a few of
our favorite predictions for the New Year. Happy 2014.
