It’s Time to Drive Organic Agency Growth

The current economic outlook can seem frightening. P&G Chief Financial Officer Andre Schulten recently noted, “Consumers on both ends of the spectrum—low income and higher income—are reacting to the current volatility they are experiencing. We see consumption trends consistently decelerating.” P&G Chief Executive Jon Moeller added, “This new behavior is driven by worries about the future, whether over immigration policies, inflation, or how tariffs will filter down to consumers.”
Building Trust — Two New Reports Demonstrate Ethical Accountability

It may sound obvious. Trust isn't just a nice thing to have — it's a business imperative. Research shows that 90% of American consumers buy from brands they trust, and 87% are even willing to pay more for products from those brands. The key is ethical marketing. The Association of National Advertisers (ANA) continues to set the industry benchmark for ethical marketing through strong self-regulation, clear enforcement programs, and powerful compliance tools. The ANA Center for Ethical Marketing ("The Center") turns these principles into action — by reporting on and mediating disputes to fortify trust between brands and consumers.

Inflation is only beginning to bite

In a blog about inflation you might expect some reference to an obscure “law” of economics. I’m going to pivot and refer to an obscure law that doesn’t find its genesis in economic theory — Hofstader’s Law: “It always takes longer than you expect, even when you take into account Hofstader's Law.”
AI Is a Growth Engine, Not a Cost Cutter

Generative AI has the potential to transform marketing—not just by making existing processes faster or cheaper, but by enabling entirely new kinds of creativity, deeper connections, and new services for consumers that were never before possible.
