It might sound sad… but starting at 6 tonight, with the office emptying around me, I was able to focus and write a really really good 1st draft of a 2024 digital strategy for our biggest client. Love that rare feeling of being personally hyper-productive.

Advertisers: We will show Paul the EXACT kind of shoe he’d love. He’s a 12-Yr-old girl, right? Me: Clicks link. Instant disappointment that they don’t have an adult men’s 12.5. Wasted budget for them. Target better, people!

#GlamorousNetflix low-key reading brands’ performative allyship. Perfectly shows why “No campaigns about us, without us” is so important #WPPUnite.

When your client buys you 1.2kg of Haribo because they “know you like them”, you have a good client.

This is crazy. He’s flailing.
NEW: Twitter just alerted employees that effective immediately, all office buildings are temporarily closed and badge access is suspended. No details given as to why.

Now we’re entering the time of year where suppliers wine and dine us more and send us gifts… This year I’d much rather any vendors donate to @TrussellTrust or a similar charity. Things have never been this hard for so many people and excess right now just feels… off.
What a mess. He’s not a genius. He’s not even a good business person. He’s just rich and entitled.
To recap for those Brits who went to bed early last night: - Elon Musk sent a bad email to staff telling them Twitter could go bankrupt and they needed to return to office fastcompany.com/90809471/the… - A Twitter lawyer went on Slack and told the staff not to do it and rebel
Well, that’s my final client requesting to pause #TwitterAds due to brand safety concerns - and this is a high-spending, household name client. Business imploding for Twitter.

With so many UK advertisers pausing activity to “respect the queen”, the only online ads I’m seeing are 100% trash. Equity release. Counterfeit goods. Cash-for-gold/houses/records/cars etc. Grim. It helps nobody.
Dear Ad Targeting, I know I buy a lot of toys but I don’t have any actual kids. Please stop with the back-to-school messages. Also; it’s still fucking JULY. Thanks, Paul
Why do so many recruiters think that me, an openly gay man, evident even on my LinkedIn profile, would be willing to take a job in Dubai, Singapore or Qatar?! Mind boggling. Check your privilege.
WPP Unite and Wavemaker Unite did an AMAZING job at #PrideInLondon today. Not only did we show our pride on digital billboards and installations around London, but those marching were… it was great. The organisers are heroes!
