    Check out Unusha S., Paid Search Exec at AKA, key takeaways from attending the BBC Digital Upfront Event last week ⬇️

    Digital Marketing at AKA 🎭

    Last week I attended the fascinating BBC Digital Upfront event at the iconic BBC Studios which focused on consumer trust, brand engagement, and verified journalism in an uncertain world. Here are some insights that stood out: • Boycotts & Brand Loyalty: Brands are increasingly facing challenges when boycotts arise, often due to a disconnect from their core purpose. Audiences are quick to call out brands when they stray from their values. • Power of Storytelling: Our brains are wired for stories. In a world full of noise, audiences are seeking human connections through authentic, relatable narratives. • Misinformation Crisis: The spread of misinformation causes instability, impacts markets, and even threatens physical security. Trusted platforms, are more important than ever. BBC News presenter Clive Myrie joined via video link from Jerusalem to speak to Lucy Hockings about how journalists are always trying to find “the third truth” by presenting facts and evidence from all sides. • BBC’s Approach to Storytelling: With a deep understanding of their audience, the BBC captures both those seeking news and those looking to unwind with culture, sports, or nature. They focus on beautifully crafted brand stories, shared at the perfect moment, and when the audience is most receptive. The takeaway? Authenticity is key. Brands that stay true to their purpose and connect with their audience in meaningful ways will thrive in today’s landscape. #BrandStorytelling #AudienceEngagement #MarketingInsights #BBCUpfront #DigitalMarketing #AuthenticityInBranding Ella Mills Deliciously Ella IAB UK AKA UK BBC BBC News IAB

    AKA are delighted to be working with American Express across their Days Out campaign. Activated across the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland we’re running an OOH (digital and static) campaign to drive awareness of the Amex Days Out offer which gives 10% off select attractions – including Legoland, Titanic Belfast, Chessington World of Adventure, Madame Tussaud’s, Sea Life, and Shrek's Adventure (totalling in 16 sites). Alongside the media, we have also developed the creative – which had to find a balance of including all attraction logos, but also creating a unified aesthetic for AMEX. #amex #attractions #AKAUK
