As the first step in building long term consumer engagement, Philips Male Grooming has launched a through the line campaign to inspire and enable men to ‘Express Yourself Every Day’. The campaign by DDB London, Tribal, One Voice, Carat, IRIS and Philips aims to help male consumers (25+ years old) realize that self-expression can be something they do every day—from the way they walk, to the job they do, to the way they shave and groom. Real guys that change mundane aspects of their daily routine into an opportunity for self-expression are at the heart of the emotionally-led campaign, which is set to break the conventions of the traditionally conservative and predictable male grooming category that has sold men on the clean shaven look for the past 30 years.

Coca-Cola Great Britain (CCGB) is bringing back its popular Designated Driver campaign to reward responsible drivers with free drinks this festive period.  Now in its fourth year, the activity offers consumers a buy-one-get-one free offer on Coca-Cola and Diet Coke and is supported by digital, POS as well as backing from the Department for Transport’s THINK! road-safety initiative.

The biggest and most awaited event of the next year is the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, and the brands, which sponsor the international competition, have already started their preparation for it by rolling out dedicated campaigns like Cadbury or previewing new vehicles like BMW. The auto giant, which is the top-tier sponsor of the event, is not only going to provide the fleet of 4,000 cars, bicycles and motorcycles for the athletes and officials, it is also offering the public an opportunity to know more about the event and athletes by releasing the Olympics 2012 iPad magazine app.
