Two Under Armour marketing execs are forced out amid spending irregularities


Two senior-level marketing executives have left Under Armour, a company spokeswoman confirmed to Ad Age. Ryan Kuehl, senior VP of sports marketing, and his direct report, Walker Jones, senior director of global sports marketing and business development, are no longer with the Baltimore-based sportswear brand. Their exits were cited in a Wall Street Journal article Monday afternoon alleging inappropriate spending in the sports marketing department.

The spokeswoman declined to comment on the departures. According to his LinkedIn page, Kuehl, a former professional football player with the New York Giants, had been with Under Armour nine years. Jones worked at Under Armour from 2008 to 2014 and rejoined the company in 2016, according to a Sports Business Journal report.

The new departures come a month after a Wall Street Journal report noting that Under Armour no longer allows employees to expense strip-club visits on their corporate cards. The changes come at a time of particular sensitivity toward such behavior in what is now known as the Me Too era. Under Armour’s rival, Nike, is also facing criticism, including a lawsuit, of some of its internal policies that are seen as sexist and discriminatory by female employees.

Hulu introduces new programmatic marketplace


Hulu is further automating advertising on the streaming platform with a new private programmatic marketplace. It’s the latest effort being made to advance TV ad buying by making it more targeted and efficient.

All of Hulu’s on-demand and live TV inventory will be available in the marketplace starting on Jan. 1. This will be an invite-only auction where bidding is possible.

The marketplace will allow advertisers and agencies to buy Hulu’s TV inventory in a more targeted way against audience demographics and geography, without having to go directly through Hulu’s sales team. There will be a floor on bidding and the private marketplace won’t replace large-scale upfront deals, when marketers strike deals for sponsorships or product placements in content.
