Hate-liking your mates

Everyone has a “friend” who always seems to be on holiday, showing off with a constant stream of pictures in glamourous locations. It’s natural to feel jealous, but etiquette demands a double-tap. Only haters refuse to ‘like’ Instagram photos, others just suck it up and ‘hate-like’. Our latest Captain Obvious spots push FOMO-feeling onlookers to get in on the action, by taking a trip of their own, using Hotels.com’s rewards programme.

The disruptor on everybody’s lips

This is our sassy, defiant new spot for Beauty Pie, the first ever shopper’s club for beauty addicts where members have access to luxury beauty without the luxury prices. It opens in typical luxe beauty mode, but quickly morphs into an edgy critique of the traditional beauty industry.

CPB who?

We’re one of the few places that have creative disruption in our DNA. We were born that way.

And when CPB say ‘disruptive’ we mean big, human, emotionally engaging ideas that affect and create culture rather than simply following it. Ideas that real people want to share with their mates and their mums. Stuff that creates buzz in the real world.

It’s a big old world. And it’s full of CPB offices. From America to Brazil, Europe and China. All working together in unique ways for the same purpose. It’s great to be part of it. Have a look at what everyone else is up to, here.

And here are the people who head-up things in London:

Brands have a vital role to play in shaping the conversation around women’s health

In the world of marketing, finding the right balance between purpose and profit has become a subject of ongoing debate. One might wonder what Terry Smith, founder and CEO of Fundsmith, an investment management company, would think about the recent success of the Barbie movie. Mattel’s venture into the theatrical realm aligns with their brand purpose of ‘inspiring the limitless potential of every girl,’ leading to a remarkable 20% surge in their share price since the beginning of 2023. This surge, particularly prominent since late June in anticipation of the film’s release, raises intriguing questions about the interplay between purpose and financial success.

The (other) Climate Gender Gap

Gender is perhaps the dimension of workplace diversity that has improved most over time. But progress on getting more women into leadership roles is at best slow and steady, and at worst those advancements have flatlined. Why, when the correlation between women at the C-suite level and a business’s profitability is repeatedly proven?
