2017 has been something of a breakthrough year for eSports. While the majority of sports marketers are still heralding eSports as the next big thing, gamers are just getting on with their thing, seemingly oblivious to the growing attention their activities are attracting. In the motorsport world, Formula E kicked off the year in style […]
In amongst the Christmas advertisements (our personal favourite from Germany here) and monsters under the bed, December also features the inevitable rush of music releases for the all-too-transient “Christmas number one”. Many peg the George Michael-led Wham! classic Last Christmas, first released on December 3, 1984, for a resurgent and reminiscent come-back posthumously. Odds are […]
The rise of data-driven marketing in recent years has sky-rocketed as the ability of technology to generate, capture and process data across every potential engagement axis has followed Moore’s Law of exponential growth. On the one hand, we now have more technology and insight than ever before. On the other, we have new restrictions on […]
Content marketing is all the rage. Enabled by digital technology and positioned as an effective and efficient marketing strategy, particularly for B2B brands, it increasingly forms the foundation for many inbound and account-based marketing initiatives. Content marketing machines do, however, need feeding with a steady stream of high-quality, relevant and engaging material. Case studies, research, […]
When deciding which levers to operate, a recent survey of spending priorities for marketing leaders suggests that four of their top 20 relate directly to content.

“Welcome to Ford’s creative design hub,” announced Lord Sugar in Wednesday night’s edition of BBC’s The Apprentice, with no subtlety surrounding the brand whose product would be so heavily featured. “This task is all about advertising.” Cars and advertising: right up our street. What was to follow was a master class in how to get […]
The British Council has published its Languages for the Future report, outlining the foreign languages that it deems fundamental for the UK to become a truly global nation post-Brexit. The report highlights some startling, yet perhaps unsurprising statistics about the UK’s linguistic capabilities. Less than one-third of surveyed 18-34 year olds in the country speak […]
Is it better to play the long game with a consistent and substantive slow burn approach to communications or are you tempted with the headline-grabbing, full-on PR attack? In-house teams and PR agencies are likely to be tempted with the latter, but perhaps that depends on the culture and strategic horizon of the organisation as […]
For eleven minutes on Thursday afternoon, Donald Trump’s Twitter account went silent. The President’s personal and often controversial comments had been removed. Deactivated. Erased. Fake news no more. For many, a cause for celebration, albeit temporarily. The seemingly deliberate and rogue act of an employee on his or her final day shows just how easy […]
Video is king – and the fastest growing area of online and social media. It should come as no surprise really considering Westerners have worshipped the medium ever since the first black and white television. The only difference now is that we’re all walking around with TV screens in our pockets and choosing what we […]
