- The sustainability of the new engagement-focused ad strategy from Doc Martens;- Avon’s move to turn their 5m+ sales reps into micro influencers – an inspired move or a misguided mistake?- Baked beans and cannabis: Why is Heinz losing so much money and what’s the buzz around Spike Jonze’s new short film calling for the legislation of marijuana?- And the latest campaigns from Mothercare and Gamble Aware which come under the creative spotlight.
