“Our ads aren’t wearing out. In fact, they’re barely wearing in: 45% of ads aren’t even given a chance to wear in. This represents a large opportunity for greater budget efficiency and brings to the forefront the measurement and accountability gaps in our content supply chain, which AI is uniquely positioned to help address.” Anastasia Leng caught up with Campaign US about new CreativeX research that has looked at how many assets within global campaign toolkits actually went live across markets. The results, described by Leng as a "wakeup call," found that 45% of core assets are never activated in-market, and on average, local markets don't activate 90% of the campaign toolkit they receive. https://lnkd.in/eTzn6DVs

How many F-Bombs did Mark Ritson drop during this first appearance at Cannes? (Answer at the end) Day 2 of Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity saw Olympic torches, "So Many Dicks", and Dolly Parton 💖 1. Revisiting brand Brand was a central theme on Day 2 - on the back of Scott Galloway's assertion last year that the era of brand is dead, brand needed a rebrand. David Tiltman described how for non-marketers, 'brand' conjures up an image of a clown burning money - unmeasurable and not growth-driving. Quoting Dolly Parton, Karen Crum attempted to rehabilitate this image: "We cannot direct the wind but we can adjust the sails." Repositioning brand will rest on increased language alignment, building precedent and the case for it's importance. Laura Jones demonstrated how for Instacart, brand-building has opened up the entire funnel. Before her team's work, "Instacart had great product market fit but no personality." Now it can stand alongside much more established brands, creating salient consumer connections. In conversation with Jim Stengel, Heather Hopkins Freeland also explored the shift from a product-focused approach to being more brand-led. Dr. Marcus Collins summed up brand as a differentiator using the example of bottled water: "Spell Evian backwards - welcome to marketing." 2. Representation in advertising "So many dicks, so few of everyone else." Speaking alongside Dr. Marcus Collins, Kory Marchisotto presented research from E.L.F. BEAUTY that found there were more men named Richard, Rich or Dick on the boards of publicly traded companies than Latin women. 3. The cost of dull As Menaka Gopinath summed up: "You're on the hook for every dollar you spend, you need to demonstrate the impact of creative decisions" Jon Evans and Adam Morgan explored new data into the 'Cost of being dull'. To sum up? Dull ads are costing advertisers (billions). Using System1 testing, they determined that in the US advertisers would need to spend the same as the GDP of Greece to drive the same impact with dull ads v. impactful content. Jon threw down the gauntlet - an ad for Dulux created in 30 minutes on a budget of 50 dollars that beat 90% of ads on System1. And the answer? A total 28 (but who's counting). That's all from Day 2 - come back for Wednesday's roundup. Subscribe to Solve for X for a post-festival deep dive → https://t.ly/W5tjU

And so it begins... #CannesLions2024 is underway. Key themes and ideas from Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity Day 1? 1. Combining data and creativity (tricky, but necessary) Pippa McArdle (The Estée Lauder Companies Inc.) spoke to the importance of combining "creativity to capture the imagination and engagement of consumers" with "the backbone of data and operationalisation of creative." 2. A new POV on AI and technology AI is usually framed as a differentiator - helping brands reach their goals faster. But for Dove, using AI to generate content is antithetical to the ethos of real beauty. For Daniel Fisher, consumers "will always know that Dove is real", and as Pau Bartoli pointed out, the challenge with the next generation of AI tools is recognising where existing biases and pressures are being reproduced. For Dentsu Lab Tokyo and Naoki Tanaka (exploring dentsu's lessons on "Innovating to Impact" after 120 years in the advertising world), AI offers new ways to tap previously untapped sources of creativity. Naoki (joined virtually by three players in Japan) showcased the "All Players Welcome" project in real-time. Empowering people with disabilities to participate in and shape culture in previously unthinkable ways. 3. Reframe how you view constraints Esteban Ribero (TikTok) reminded the audience of the incredibly powerful impact limiting creative space can have. Constraints shouldn't be seen in a negative light, but an impetus to think even more creatively. That's all for Day 1 -- watch out for the Olympic Torch on Day 2.
