Multi-channel marketing challenges are not primarily technical. They are organisational, strategic, and commercial. Most teams that struggle with multi-channel execution are not failing because they lack the right tools. They are failing because they have not resolved the harder questions first: who owns what, how channels interact, and whether the activity is actually driving growth…
The SkinnyPop rebrand is a case study in knowing what you are and having the discipline to say it clearly. When Amplify Snack Brands, and later Hershey, sharpened the brand’s visual identity and tightened its positioning, they weren’t reinventing a product. They were removing the noise that had accumulated around a simple, commercially strong idea:…
The Coca-Cola “Share a Coke” campaign replaced the brand’s iconic logo with 150 of the most popular names in each market. It ran first in Australia in 2011, then rolled out globally, and it became one of the most replicated go-to-market ideas of the last two decades. What made it work was not the personalisation…
The Weight Watchers brand is one of the most instructive case studies in modern marketing, not because it succeeded, but because it shows exactly what happens when a company tries to solve a brand problem with a name change instead of a strategy change. The rebrand to WW in 2018 was meant to signal a…
December 2025 is a useful moment to separate signal from noise. The trends worth paying attention to are not the ones generating the most conference buzz. They are the ones quietly reshaping how budgets get allocated, how audiences get reached, and how growth actually happens. This is not a list of predictions. It is a…
Marketing trends in 2026 are arriving faster than most teams can evaluate them. The question is not which trends exist, it is which ones will actually move your business and which ones are just industry theatre dressed up as strategy. The honest answer is that most trend coverage conflates novelty with relevance. A shift worth…
The Walmart rebranding is one of the more instructive case studies in modern retail brand management, not because it was radical, but because it was deliberate. When a company with nearly $650 billion in annual revenue touches its visual identity, it is not experimenting. It is making a calculated statement about where the business is…
When a subscriber downgrades from a paid tier to an ad-supported one, most brands treat it as a retention win. The customer stayed. The churn metric looks fine. What actually happened is that someone who was paying to avoid your ads is now being forced to watch them, and that changes everything about how they…
The Domino’s rebrand of 2009 is one of the most studied turnarounds in modern marketing, and for good reason. A major fast food chain publicly admitted its product was bad, rebuilt the recipe, and then made the admission itself the centrepiece of its advertising. What followed was a decade of sustained commercial growth that most…
Ads with emotion outperform rational ads on almost every meaningful commercial metric, not because emotion is a creative indulgence, but because it is how memory, preference, and purchase decisions actually work. The brain does not separate feeling from thinking when it encounters a brand. It integrates them, and the feeling usually wins. That is not…
