Today (12th February 2020), McDonald's will be selling its well-celebrated 'Big Mac Sauce' in stores across the UK. You can purchase dipping pots for just 50p in restaurants up and down the country, and I believe that special campaigns are being led in London to promote the launch of their newest item on the purchasable menu.… Continue reading 2020’s Creative Campaigns #3 – You Can Now Buy Big Mac Sauce
I knew it was only a matter of time before I ended up talking about Mr. Mark Rofe on this blog. What one might deem a PR mastermind, Mark and the rest of the team at Rise At Seven are truly wizards at what they do, and I don't doubt that they're big inspirations to… Continue reading 2020’s Creative Campaigns #2 – The Sign You’ve Been Waiting For?
Never has a story better demonstrated the sheer power of social media than that of Petersfield bookshop. A story I've had the pleasure of following right from the beginning, and one that I've really enjoyed watching blossom into what it is today. It started like this. From Tumbleweeds... "...Tumbleweed... Not a single book sold today...… Continue reading From Tumbleweeds To Twitter Fame
It's a new year, a whole new decade even, and that means that the clock has been reset on the Creative Campaigns of the year that I write about. Amid a myriad of brilliantly creative marketing stunts last year, I managed to handpick and write about 20 in total. Starting with the iconic 'Greggs Vegan Sausage Roll'… Continue reading 2020’s Creative Campaigns #1 – Build Your Own Baby Yoda
I've long been a champion of Burger King's campaigns. If I had to crown my favourite marketer of all time, it would undoubtedly be them. From their witty social media, to their wonderfully creative PR stunts, this is a brand that really has everything going for them. That's why their latest gig, unsurprisingly, got another… Continue reading 2019’s Creative Campaigns #20 – The Whopper Hides The Big Mac
Admittedly, it's been a while since I've written a 'creative campaigns' post (mostly for reasons I divulged recently in a tweet thread). I must do better! This doesn't mean though, that I haven't been taking note. I often give the stunts I come across a quote tweet with comments along the lines of 'smashing' 'love… Continue reading 2019’s Creative Campaigns #19 – Control Harrods’ Christmas Lights
Everyone loves a freebie, gee it doesn't take a genius to know that. But normally, you can only pick up something for free if you offer a brand something in exchange. I.e. you sign up to their mailing list, you download their app, you're a brand new customer, and so on. You get the gist.… Continue reading 2019’s Creative Campaigns #17 – Free Coffees For Absolutely EVERYBODY!
Anyone who knows me knows how much of a big fan I am of Chester Zoo. "The Secret Life Of The Zoo" is a staple evening-watch of mine, and I just love everything that the brand stands for. Therefore, I'm equally as intrigued and invested in the way in which they market themselves, both online… Continue reading 2019’s Creative Campaigns #16 – Chester Zoo Wants You To Play With The Elephants
Usually, pulling off a 'PR gag' takes a great deal of effort. From the ideation stage right through to the actual execution - there's a lot of effort that goes into generating that publicity. However, it's not always the work that goes into a campaign, but rather the imagination and of course - the creativity behind it. And… Continue reading 2019’s Creative Campaigns #14 – Ben & Jerrys’ ‘CBD Ice Cream’
Because this week is supposed a week of brilliant comms efforts, flourishing in creativity - I have a second creative comms post today. This one involves a 'blast from the past', as IKEA show you how to design your living room in the style of some of your best-loved TV shows. Already equipped with a dedicated landing… Continue reading 2019’s Creative Campaigns #13 – IKEA Recreate Our Best-Loved Living Rooms
