Our industry always worships the creative output. Which is why there are so many awards that celebrate creativity. Rightly so. The only award that celebrates Strategists is Effie. For work that works. Effectiveness. Good souls like Prem, Kawal, Subbu etc have ensured that this year the process is tighter and transparent. I don’t mind losing to a better idea- or a better strategy. But I have a lot of bones to break for entries that are fraudulent. Cases masquerading as strategic intent, when in reality they lacked one. Worst- cases anchored on vanity metrics. Happy that it won’t happen this time. Or so I hope. The best minds should win. The best work should win. The ad industry should win. ‘What else we here for?’ #marketing #brands #effectiveness #strategy

"The customer is not a moron, she's your wife,"- David Ogilvy's quote remains a timeless classic in the world of advertising. It points out the need to respect consumer experience. In today’s marketplace, effective communication is not just about talking down to customers but engaging them with authenticity, empathy and insight. As you would have to explain something thoughtfully to someone you care about, brands must treat their audience with respect, understanding their needs and desires. This approach in the long run builds trust and loyalty, creating lasting brand-consumer relationships. At CINAT, we believe that respecting our audience leads to more meaningful and long-term success. #advertising #relationships #UgAdAgency #personalRelations #brand

Nothing worthwhile and meaningful ever comes easy. Much like an Effie! You don’t win one – YOU EARN IT! Doing that takes hours of #heart, #graft and #craft. Have you been part of building something significant, where creative brilliance is driven by real world impact? If your campaign has left a lasting impact on the world around us, then enter the 2024 Effie Awards. There’s just some things you can’t fake. GRIT Not as a trait, but as a persistent call. Ready to charge. Passion, attitude, determination. Not swayed by the whispers of doubt or despair. Not seeking the easy road, not fearing the fight. Carving out the creative through the night, making sure everything lands results right. CRAFT It’s in the creativity, attention to detail. Deliberate, thought-through, designed to a T, well-executed. Right messaging, striking visuals, targeted audience. Understanding the rhythm, shaping the narrative, because effectiveness is imperative. HEART The human truth, insight, pushing boundaries. Back to the drawing board, again and again, until it feels right. Does it evoke emotions? Is it connecting deeper? Is it effective? The authenticity. Sincerity. You have to feel it in the story. RESULTS The measurable impact of the work tied to the goals – the influence, growth in business, after-effects, the likes, shares, clicks, KPIs, insights, and quality over pretty pictures. From lead gen to customer satisfaction, it’s all about setting the global benchmark for excellence. Truth is effective marketing – always makes impact, so why fake it when you can show real results? Enter the Effies. #EffieAwardsSA #EffectiveMarketing #Manifesto

Industry awards are everywhere... I say, sitting in the sunshine in the south of France 👀, but do they really matter? Beyond the glitz, they can boost morale, attract business, and validate hard work. Yet, with rising costs, is it time to demand more? Are awards just for show, or do they prove true success? With entries at Cannes Lions shifting towards effectiveness, it’s clear agencies seek proof that their strategies work. This year, entries into the Effectiveness category hit record highs. The shift towards effectiveness is not just a trend but a necessity. Agencies and brands are chasing proof of real impact, not just shiny trophies. I caught up with Laurent Simon, Susie Walker, Pablo González de la Peña, Brent Nelsen, Guy Melzack and Matthew Waksman who emphasise that awards should showcase how creativity drives tangible value for brands and society.
