Golin’s Post

We’re overjoyed to share that Golin and Specsavers received the coveted Grand Prix Lion, a Gold Lion and two Silver Lions across the Audio & Radio and Healthcare categories at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, a recognition of our groundbreaking work with Specsavers on ‘The Misheard Version’ campaign. Our ‘The Misheard Version’ campaign, in collaboration with Specsavers, redefined creative boundaries and showcased the transformative power of strategic storytelling. We’re incredibly grateful to Rick Astley for his invaluable contribution to this project. His involvement brought a unique dimension to our campaign and played a significant role in its success. So, here’s to Golin, to Specsavers, to Rick Astley, and to the power of great partnerships. May we continue to push the envelope, challenge the status quo, and create work that resonates. Here’s to many more milestones on our journey ahead!

We are proud to collaborate with #client Total Wireless in our mission to ensure that all football fans can participate in the COPA America, regardless of the crazy ticket costs. This year, we recognized that many passionate fans were unable to attend the games in person. However, we were determined to make their voices heard. We found a simple way to do it, Text-to-Sign. All fans had to do was text our Sign Guy at 1-855-504-SIGN to have their message turned into a sign at the stadium. Even without an official sponsorship, we made a lot of noise for the real fans.

We are excited to introduce “DiverSCENTS”, a unique fragrance collection from our APAC region. Each scent in this collection represents one of our Asian markets - Singapore, Shanghai, Taipei, Hong Kong, and Beijing. Launching on Racial Harmony Day (21st July), “DiverSCENTS” is more than just a collection of fragrances. This progressive range offers the chance to reflect on the power of diversity, equity, and inclusion across the region. Congratulations to Golin Singapore on this remarkable initiative! #GoAllIn
