Profiles Creative’s Post

For our next In-House Agency Leaders Club In-House Life online session on 3 September at 1pm we'll be speaking to Matthew Bull, Global Chief Creative Advisor to KraftHeinz and AB InBev. Here's what we'll be covering: *External vs in-house agencies How is the relationship between the two evolving? What does effective collaboration look like? Should internal agencies pitch against external ones? Is there a limit to the creative ambition of in-house teams? Should they be attempting to do it all? *Talent & culture What qualities do you look for in a creative leader for an in-house team? How is that different to a leader of an external agency? What are the advantages of being in-house for a creative director/ECD? Some people have called for in-house creative leaders to be in the C-suite as a CCO - can you see that happening? What advantage would it bring to a business? How important is it for in-house agencies to look, feel and behave differently from the rest of the company? Is there a danger that this creates too many barriers with colleagues and negates some of the advantages of being in-house? *The work If an in-house agency has the ambition to raise the standard of its creative work, where should it start? Talent? Relationships with stakeholders? Remit? What role do creative awards play for internal agencies? And we'll be taking questions from the audience too!

Long-term brands and agency relationships WORK BETTER.

As I head to the airport for this year’s Cannes Lions, I am equal parts bullish, excited, and a little nervous. Not only will this be my first time at the world’s largest advertising festival, it’s also the first official Cannes presence for Kroger Precision Marketing. We're going to Cannes because we can't just watch from the sidelines. Retail sales are the ultimate proof of advertising's power, so we have a responsibility to be at the industry's biggest global event. Measuring true sales impact is a more complex conversation than just talking about impressions and clicks—but the end result is worth the effort. Starting Monday, we will be hosting panel discussions each morning and appearing on stages throughout the festival. In partnership with WPP/GroupM, we've got an all-star lineup of sessions on audience-first planning for Monday morning: 🌟 Cheap Impressions Aren’t Cheap—featuring Scope3’s Brian O'Kelley, IAB’s Jeffrey Bustos, and choreograph’s Rich Astley 🌟 You Are What You Buy—featuring LiveRamp’s Kevin Dunn and Mindshare’s Nancy Hall 🌟 Creating the Happiest Place in CTV—featuring Disney Advertising’s Dana McGraw, Colgate-Palmolive’s Diana Haussling, and Wavemaker’s Alison Karp Stay tuned—I’ll be sharing insights and highlights from Cannes throughout the week. #Advertisingandmarketing #Media #CannesLions #KrogerPrecisionMarketing

The best hospitality in the ad-industry…𝙒𝙃𝙔 𝙉𝙊𝙏? .... Whenever I think of hospitality and service, I will forever think of this quote Danny Meyer quote: "Service is the technical delivery of a product. Hospitality is how the delivery of that product makes its recipient feel."

This is the power of marketing put into use for good.

#Dooh-better… Here is a great example of just that. We took an existing asset of a creative, beautifully stylized with Cuban hazy notes and cool environments—a true classic for the brand. Give it to us, and we elevate it. We drive the attention to the message, a perfect example of adding ad-tech to your existing #campaign. We didn’t mess with it or change its narrative; we just got people looking at it. That’s ad-tech, and that simply is #3rock. #AdTech #dooh #DigitalMarketing #ProgrammaticAdvertising #3DAdvertising #AttentionEconomy #InnovationInAdvertising #MarketingInnovation #OOHAdvertising #CreativeTech #3rock #3rockar #3rockglobal #aradvertising #3Ddooh #webar #playdooh #advertising #ooh https://lnkd.in/eycBjRrZ

Incredibly proud to share that PHD UK will extend and expand its 28-year relationship with Sainsbury's, as the UK’s second largest retailer consolidates all of its media planning and buying with the agency. As Sainsbury director of marketing brands Radha Davies told Campaign UK, PHD’s win was the result of how they “articulated a compelling case for a single agency model and embedded this in innovative, insight-based holistic media planning.”     The Sainsbury win marks the second time in the past few weeks that an iconic retail brand has taken a long-term relationship with Omnicom Media Group to the next level, coming on the heels of last month’s decision by Gap Inc. Inc to extend its almost 14-year partnership with OMG. For the UK specifically, it's the latest in a string of wins for OMG that has included luxury automotive manufacturer JLR, national lottery operator Allwyn UK, home appliance brand SharkNinja, and motoring and cycling provider Halfords; as well as sharing in global wins for Uber and global baked goods giant Grupo Bimbo.   Having dominated the UK's net new business ranking for global media groups in 2023 — significantly outperforming its competition — Omnicom Media Group UK appears to be aiming for an encore for 2024. A powerful reminder of why it is so important to invest into modern media capabilities that offer the world's leading marketers both global consistency AND local impact. #PHDIntelligenceConnected #TransformExperiences
