Replying to @wearebou
@wearebou mentioned in @marmai, a list of ”your 50 to watch in marketing”. Not sure of the picture choice though 🤭
Thanks for including @alexpihlainen on your 50 to watch in marketing, @marmai - we’ll settle for “scandalous” any day.
PS. Never seen our CEO look this good.

Designer's Christmas: opening up a brand new website for @wecompensate with brilliant colleagues 🎁
Gaming + Design = The best kind of work 👌 Check out what wonders we did with @wondershophq 👨💻
Working wonders with @wondershophq – the new impact-driven game studio. We brought to life their smashing new brand, designed by @friendsbyproxy, through a neat website design, dev, comms & PR.
We say this collab was one for the ages – see it yourself: wondershop.org
As a gamer and a designer, this blend has been the most-absolute-ultimate honor to work with! Looking forward to some early alpha action when that hits 🤩
Launch time! @mainfrme to shake the gaming industry with a cloud-native MMO: themainframe.com/
Launching the twitter year with subtle self-praise. We gave a proper uplift for one of Finland’s leading corporate finance houses, bringing them straight to the new decade.
