Malort advertising works by doing the opposite of what most brand teams are trained to do: it leans into the negative. Jeppson’s Malort, the notoriously bitter Chicago spirit, built a cult following not by softening its product’s flaws but by weaponising them. The advertising is self-aware, deadpan, and deeply honest, and that honesty is exactly…
Public relations is one of the most misunderstood occupations in marketing. From the outside, it looks like media lunches and press releases. From the inside, it is a discipline that demands strategic thinking, commercial literacy, and the ability to build trust under pressure, often without a clear brief and rarely with a generous timeline.
