We’ve blogged several times about the need to disclose when social media posts by endorsers, particularly celebrities, have been paid for. And there has been lots of guidance and discussion about how best to do that, particularly in shorter form media such as Twitter.

From dickhead to sainthood… Thank you, Adweek. I’ve been waiting for something like this. A truly original idea based on a deep and meaningful insight – as opposed to all the farfetched click bait (so-called “weirdvertising”) or, conversely, heavy handed content pushing social causes. So much modern advertising is about riding a pop culture wave, grabbing attention with glib shininess, or bludgeoning us with kumbaya kindness that I’ve almost forgotten what a solid piece of creative l

The Kevin Roberts diversity saga continues with yet another story in today’s Times (4th August). In conversation a few days ago a few of us were speculating there is more to this than meets the eye. Now we know – a book!
Wasn’t Shredded Wheat the breakfast cereal that challenged you to eat three of its hyper-chewy bullets? Nestle Cereals and agency McCann have evidently been giving the brand some serious thought and produced a new “brand platform” – shredding life. In case this isn’t immediately clear, it means inviting people to go out and start “absolutely.

Getting agencies to admit that they’re involved in advertising these days can be a major achievement. When it comes down to promoting themselves. But McCann Montevideo in Uruguay has jumped in where others fear to tread with a campaign featuring its creatives and a nifty bottle of McCann perfume. Still has a way to go.
Brexit is being blamed for everything from collapsing high street sales (they seem to be recovering) to job losses in the banking industry and elsewhere (this is a variation on the kitchen sink school of management).

WPP’s GroupM has trimmed its 2016 global ad expenditure forecast and produced its initial outlook for 2017.

Those technopolists are everywhere and it clearly hasn’t escaped their attention that India is rapidly becoming the most desirable of growth markets. A new GroupM report today says it’s the fastest-growing media market worldwide and US companies are piling in. Amazon Fashion seems a fairly recent addition to the mushrooming Bezos armoury but it’s demonstrating.
Is this inclusion/sexism stuff in adland getting out of hand? Colourful black-clad (yes he’s both) former Saatchi & Saatchi boss Kevin Roberts (below) – now “head coach” at Publicis Groupe – has been suspended for saying, among other things, that women “lacked vertical ambition.” It’s better than saying they lack horizontal ambition i suppose.
The Royal Air Foce is out recruiting and its new online campaign from WCRS tells us “It’s Like No Ordinary Job.” It features serving personnel and reservists with some of their RAF highlights.

It’s always worrying for agencies when a big client merger happens and one of the biggest recent ones is BT’s £12bn buy of EE in the UK. BT also owns Plusnet. On the media agency front it seems it’s going to be business as usual, albeit in a slightly different form. WPP’s GroupM is forming.
Apple isn’t as popular as it used to be. It’s grown too big, makes too much money, avoids too much tax and drives users nuts with constant upgrades that don’t work as well as they should. It also doesn’t have Steve Jobs any more who, while hardly cuddly, summed up what Apple was about in.

Outsmart, the UK’s out of home media marketing body, is cutting back dramatically as efforts to persuade French-owned OOH giant JC Decaux to join have foundered.
