#advertising

They say his highest spot ever. I am wondering how much advertising we need to buy to get him to the top 5. Maybe we can pay a consulting company millions of dollars, so they can give us a strategy to get there. We can do it!

I'm not seeing any QF ads anywhere now.

nterpublic Group (IPG) has reduced its workforce by 3,200 employees this year, including 800 in September. 2026 will be even worse. The folks running the company are clueless and there is a ton of greed. That's my opinion and I do not see things changing any time soon.

I walk the Vz br cafe and while I’m hearing the gloom and doom talk I am blasted by a 120 inch screen w Kevin heart as a ice cream cone, than Pete Davidson for a Vz commercial. Like are we fr? Why are we paying millions to these mo--ns? You think that having those guys in a commercial helps the bottom line even by .0000001 ? NO. Stop wasting millions on stupidity, Jesus

I've been gone from Nielsen and the industry quite a few years but I still keep tabs. This is a pretty big (expensive) hire by Nielsen. Peter's job will be to take any heat from the industry that comes Karthik's way. Looks like they hired him to basically be a glorified PR guy with the client base. He has a long history and successful track record in ad sales. Whenever Nielsen has hired these big industry g-ns in the past, they fizzle out really quick and take off into the sunset with a big bag of money.

Working at In-House agency 140 in NYC. Been hearing layoff rumors for years now. Have a feel it this will be it.

Everyone internally knows it. Now the rest of the world is finding out as well: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/t-files-lawsuit-against-nad-162100639.html

“In the last four years, the National Advertising Division (NAD) has issued at least 16 decisions finding that T-Mobile's advertisements or other marketing claims were false, misleading and/or unsubstantiated.”

T has been touting their new commercial attacking t-mobile even on insider. But what they aren't saying is that they received a cease and desist order to stop playing it from the source they quoted saying they didn't have authorization to use the materials. And apparently ATT is ignoring it like the honorable corporation they claim to be.

AT&T’s violation of its agreement under the Procedures and its misuse of NAD’s decisions for promotional purposes undermines NAD’s mission to promote truth and accuracy of advertising claims and foster consumer trust in the marketplace.

Also omitted their history of deceptive advertising.

A friend in marketing in purchase told me they’re releasing a brand new PepsiCo logo on Tuesday lol. Really got them priorities in order!!!

Such a ridiculous ad by us calling T-Mobile deceptive and a hustle. When we as a company are a joke. Like and comment #WeSupportTMobile if you agree.

AT&T just launched a shiny new ad campaign trashing tmobile – because nothing screams confidence like obsessing over your competitor's success.

They're bragging about "300,000 square miles of coverage" and the " AT&T Guarantee" Meanwhile, real customers on Truspilot are handing out 1-star reviews like Halloween candy. MAYBE fix your OWN moral and coverage before worrying about someone else's.

It's wild watching a 100-year-old company, drowning in debt and bad PR, act like a jealous ex. TMOBILE over there sitting comfortably at a $200 stock price, while AT&T's bragging about fiber and posting apology ads.

When your own employees are miserable, your customers are furious, and your stock is flatlined – maybe stop worrying about T-Mobile and start reconnecting with reality.

And we’re over paying a C list actor and someone in marketing to call out T-Mobile? A competitor whose stock price is 10x ours. We’re doomed. WTF!

I can’t imagine how much money it cost for Belk to be the front and center sponsorship. They are plastered all over with the renovation of the stadium. They are also plastered all over the court. Would love an estimate of how much that cost

Just saw a video on Tik Tok posted by Cresa Atlanta advertising the lease… when will the employees be told.

With all the Code of conduct , Ethics communications going out, is Having Walter Goggins as the Walmart commercial spokesman a bit Hypocritical? Great actor, funny at times, but much (like 98.6%) of his stuff clearly crosses lines of Code of Conduct. What's the message here Board of Directors ????

Maybe your best won't be good enough. But maybe you'll go all in and come out with everything. There's only one way to find out.

Is it me, or do Nike's ads at these times of layoffs, low share price etc speak to themselves...

Sorry for all let go this time.

For those left, you know its only a matter of time

Just saw the Meghan Trainor SF commercial. Can SF get any more ghetto or low rent? I guess they are targeting the 2040 population just like the 2040 workforce. It's embarrassing SF! I wonder why were are #2. #2... that basically sums up everything at SF. The work environment and company smell likes, looks like, and feels like #2. Our commercials are pure #2 just like our Exec leadership!

Just saw some short Fido ad on TV, wow it made it feel like you were joining the team at Walmart…raising the standard by lowering the bar.

Japanese advertising agency Dentsu Group Inc. is considering selling its overseas operations, the Financial Times reported Thursday.

If the company sells all of its overseas assets, it could raise several billion dollars, but the move would mark its withdrawal from international business.

If you want to get rid of people hiking calling it voluntary severance - look at cutting unnecessary expenses. Starting with the high profile celebrity advertising and then the high end large six figure executive salaries. Both those classes of folks have enough money and that needs to be dropped off the books - immediately
