Norwegian Humanist Association: All Families Matter

What decides when a family is normal? When the Norwegian minister of family affairs decided to remove the responsibility for equality from the ministry, the signal that was sent was that not all families are equal. A family should be judged by how they treat each other, not who they love. The Norwegian Humanist Association wanted to use their voice and speak out against this, and asked different families about their family values. See to the end.

Why Target sat out the Grammys


There was one advertiser noticeably absent from Sunday’s Grammy Awards: Target. After spending heavily on the February event in recent years with a surprise concert and live music videos, the retailer sat this year out.

“Music has always been and continues to be an important part of Target’s brand,” says Target spokesman Joshua Thomas, noting that the company is proud of its Grammys work. “An activation during the Grammys did not align with our plans this year,” he adds.

Last year, the Minneapolis-based brand was, along with Ford, the largest advertiser in the event, which attracted some 19.8 million viewers, according to Nielsen. Target invested $9.2 million in advertising for the 2018 awards, according to Kantar Media.

Länsförsäkringar Insurance company: The Check Out Suite


PR, Online
Länsförsäkringar (Insurance company)

As part of their commitment to increase digital health among youths and families, insurance company Länsförsäkringar has launched The Check Out Suite – the world’s first hotel room where the price is determined by how much time you spend online. The hotel room, located at Hotel Bellora in Gothenburg Sweden, rewards visitors for staying away from their screens, allowing families to spend time with each other instead of their screens. The price is determined by The Skärmfri™ (Screen-free) smart lamp, which calculates how much you pay based on how much time you spend on social media. As you surf the light gradually changes and the price increases. When the lamp turns red you have reached full price for the room. If you don’t surf at all? Well, your stay is free of charge.

BuzzFeed journalists agree to unionize in wake of layoffs


BuzzFeed Inc.’s U.S. journalists agreed to unionize, saying they would seek better benefits and fair pay after seeing some colleagues lose their jobs last month.

An overwhelming majority of workers were in favor of the decision to join NewsGuild, the labor union that’s part of the Communications Workers of America, according to a person familiar with the matter, who asked not to be identified discussing details of the decision.

BuzzFeed’s move last month to eliminate 15 percent of its headcount gutted several parts of the newsroom, including the national desk and the health desk. Following the layoffs, employees took to Twitter and Medium to criticize the company for failing to pay all dismissed workers for accrued time off. Eventually BuzzFeed management relented.

IPG boasts 'unbelievable' growth in Q4; didn't see CPG ding


Advertising holding company Interpublic Group of Cos. posted a strong fourth quarter Wednesday, reporting organic growth of 7.1 percent in the quarter a figure that outpaced those of competitors Omnicom and Publicis, who also reported earnings in the last week.

That organic growth figure doesn’t include growth of Acxiom’s Marketing Solutions business, which IPG officially acquired in October of last year.

The holding company saw organic growth for full-year 2018 of 5.5 percent, above its latest target of 4.5 percent. Fourth quarter 2018 net revenue was $2.41 billion compared with $2.13 billion the year prior; while full-year 2018 net revenue was $8.03 billion, compared with $7.47 billion the year prior. JP Morgan’s Alexia Quadrani called the revenue growth in the quarter “unbelievable” and said the quarter was impressive.

Avon: The Last Make-Up

Avon is trying to be a brand with a purpose, by supporting and creating campaigns for women rights.

In Costa Rica, most violence against women occurs during and after the national tournament soccer matches. Alcohol consumption and anger fuel an already male chauvinist society, as the number of aggression reports skyrockets at those times.

During the most followed game of the season (“The Classic”, Saprissa-Alajuela) we aired the commercial several times. It had a huge impact which was immediately shown in social media, where people used the hashtag #NiUnaMenos (#NotOneLess) to praise the brand for its courage. #NiUnaMenos is an already established movement which demands the end of violence against women.
