Golin London’s Post

The nation may not be performing brilliantly on the pitch, but in other football news, the Specsavers team are performing football miracles, with the most incredible coverage spread for Best Worst Team today – no mean feat given how busy the news agenda is this week! A massive, shout out to the brilliant Specs ‘Should’ve’ team – Alice Power, Amy P., Dean Ismail Millie Walters, SENI AKINWUNMI and Rory Cramsie 👏⚽

Natasha Weeks, Executive Director on our Consumer health team, reflects on the power of humour at this year's Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity and how it can be used in consumer healthcare campaigns to drive engagement and behaviour change 👏

We’re always looking for ways to extend our campaigns beyond the initial launch moment and to build conversation with our audience. So following our ASICS EMEA 15 Minute Weight Loss campaign a few weeks ago, which tackled peoples' obsession with exercising for weight loss, we are taking the conversation deeper with a sponsored episode of the hugely popular podcast, Should I Delete That. Em Clarkson, Alex Light and Sian Lord – each hugely influential in the body positivity space - discussed our campaign and the importance of exercise for mind and body. Sian's story of how she used the positive power of exercise in her recovery is incredible. Thanks to our clients Caroline Fisher Esther Turkenburg Gary Raucher for exploring new formats and finding new ways to positively change people’s relationship with exercise. And our brilliant team Gemma Combellack Jess Moore Antea Pezzo Migle Matiuke Listen to the episode here 👉https://lnkd.in/eNjawd5c

“We’re making ideas you can’t ignore – as earned agencies always have – but the scale, craft and measured effectiveness of ideas is being dialled up.” Alex Wood on Golin's and the PR industry's Cannes Lions success in today's PRWeek UK. https://lnkd.in/grqfNAEP
