Wait, what???? PepsiCo X Reebok A sneaker that sneaks in a pepsi! A wild collaboration, isn’t it? This latest collection has a chamber within the sole of the shoe to hide a mini pepsi can!! And the twist is, there are only 22 of these and that too all are in Shaquille O’Neil’s size! A shoe that holds your drink - would you actually use it or is this just an impractical gimmick? #marketing #advertising

Managing Director @ Global Media Consult | TV Industry Strategist Navigating the intricate world of TV & Media with clear, expert guidance.
Nike has its own content studio called Waffle Iron Entertainment. Now LVMH launched its own creative unit to work with Hollywood. Lots of other brands have started similar initiatives. They all have one thing in common: to tell the story of their brand in a variety of ways and to foster the lifestyle appeal of their products and services. If you are brand it is not news to you that you have to consider being a content company as well. People buy not only a pair of shoes, they buy a whole story with it. The more expensive the product, the more important is your image. And you transport this image via storytelling- it has always been this way and with moving images it has only become more relevant. Every business is now a media business - and this opens opportunities for TV and Film business alike. #brandedentertainment #monetization #retailinmedia

⚫ Real Madrid's Dirty Campaign. See for yourself*. It's truly an art for a non-sports brand (𝗢𝗠𝗢 𝗗𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁 / #Unilever) to propose an approach deeply immersed in sports without losing its own distinctive character. ➡ Check out the video case study of the OMO Detergent campaign, a partner of Real Madrid 🇪🇸 ⚽. Conceptually: Top-Notch. The idea, media and technology usage, brand exposure, fan engagement, timing, buzz. Everything works perfectly here. Created by: Miami Ad School Madrid 👏 *Thought there'd be some drama, did you? Nah, it's just a killer campaign.

Developing brands in the most creative, imaginative, and unhinged ways possible | Founder @ by COB 🫡
I have stumbled upon marketing genius 👇🏽 Gymshark’s campaign, "We Do Gym," sparked a trend that I fricken love. Brands from all corners of the globe dropped in to declare their mission in just three words - some used more than 3 words - but it's still brilliant. Why is this so powerful? Because storytelling should be simple. It should connect, resonate, and be easily understood - all while maintaining a clear personality. Gymshark nailed this (3 words FTW). This campaign proves that: 1. Storytelling must be simple and relatable 2. Brands with savvy community managers shine 3. Gymshark’s influence in the global market is undeniable Bravo to the community managers of KFC UK & Ireland, O2 (Telefónica UK), Red Bull, LG Electronics UK, Distell, Cineworld Cinemas Ltd, and Aldi Ireland. 🫶🏼 #Marketing #Branding #Advertising

#LVMH is betting on #data through #entertainment that they plan to monetize. Does this sound familiar? Let me know your thoughts below ⬇️ #digital #advertising #privacy
Last week, when LVMH announced the launch of 22 Montaigne Entertainment, a central platform to connect its 75 maisons with the entertainment industry, the move was about more than trying to capitalise on audiences eager to watch stories about brands from Barbie to Nike. It was also a survival plan for a world where traditional forms of mass-media advertising are losing their effectiveness. Some of the industry’s biggest players are now creating more formal ties to the entertainment business. Last April, Saint Laurent announced a film production unit, while in September, Artémis, the holding company of Kering owner François Pinault, bought a majority stake in Hollywood talent agency CAA. "[There is] a fine balance between giving your entertainment partners creative flexibility and also protecting what you’ve built in terms of brand value,” said John Harrison, media and entertainment leader at EY Americas. Read the full story by BoF's Marc Bain on why the luxury giant is adjusting to a shifting media landscape, resulting in projects like “Dior and I” and the new Apple TV series “The New Look.”
