Welcome to Building Brand You™, the podcast that helps you accelerate your success by unlocking your greatest asset – you. KEY TAKEAWAYS You are you. If they don't want you, then they're not right for you. And they will never give you what you need. Don't think that it's about you. This is about them. Be humble and learn from the past. And, when something doesn't work, do the debriefing and all that wonderful unpacking. Alone we go fast. Together we go far. Failure teaches you something. It's not how you struggle, but how you recover from it. Stay in the moment and don't get too caught up in the future.

About JustinI am currently the Founder, Chairman, and CEO of CSC Generation Holdings, one of the dime a dozen "unicorn" start-ups.*After being told that nobody would ever hire me, I quit the bureaucracy and negativity of Palos Verdes High School to start a marketplace for unlocked cell phones, which was acquired by a family office when I was 19 years old. More recently, I founded 500friends, the leading loyalty and retention marketing platform for retailers, which merged with Merkle in 2014, and was eventually acquired by Dentsu Aegis in 2016.I also invest between $50k and $1M in interesting companies run by interesting people, eg:*Consumer Internet Companies (excluding social networking): Hipmunk (seed, acquired by Concur), Dropoff (seed), Next Force Technology (seed), Dave (seed), Macro Ventures (seed), Imperfect Produce (seed), Flowclub (seed), Network Eyecare (seed)*SaaS/b2b Companies: Firebase (seed - acquired by GOOG), Zencoder (seed - acquired by BCOV), BounceX (seed, co-lead Series A), Mux (seed), BigFinite (seed).*Funds: Bling Capital, Ovo Fund, Luma Capital Partners, Dundee Venture Capital, Crown Capital Management.Besides business and things I shouldn't be discussing on LinkedIn, I love animals, especially dogs, (many) cats (but especially Persian and Himalayan breeds), dolphins, whales, capybaras, platypus, manatees and turtles. Despite this, I am not a vegetarian, primarily because I lack self discipline.

Planet Driven Brands Podcast Euan Jarvie. At the time of recording Euan was the CEO, UK & Ireland at Advertising giant Dentsu Aegis. Euan is passionate about the societal and cultural shift that is required for change and he explains the Black Lives Matter effect on the public opinion - "intolerant of intolerance" With over 30 years experience leading client service agencies, Euan's insight is crucial as the industry goes through change. Here is his story; whereby he has travelled from being the 'token jock' to learning about 'real' prejudice from his own mentor, "a black lady from SE London" These experiences have helped form strong opinions on how advertising tackles its own problems of prejudice and (lack of) diversity. In doing so he projects his own mantra - #Contribution-not-commnetary. He wants clients to 'stop talking about doing good, but not doing better' and warns that competition and commercialism in contracts is actually holding back evolution and progress in achieving sustainable goals. His family and many colleagues have played an important part in his story and as he says: "You're only here for a short period of time. Be that in a career or in life in total and therefore your only real responsibility is not to muck it up for the people coming after you!" Here, in Planet Driven Brands Podcast Euan Jarvie shares some powerful thoughts as to how we can guard against doing just that!

Acheter une organisation en gardant en place les propriétaires existants, est quelque chose de très fréquent dans les transactions pour les entreprises en prestation de service. Les acquéreurs vont donner un objectif spécifique à atteindre aux actionnaires achetés et si ces dits objectifs sont atteints, la valeur de l'acquisition sera plus élevée. D'un autre côté, si l'entrepreneur en place décide de lever le pied et n'atteint pas ses objectifs, il risque de passer à côté de beaucoup d'argent. Ce type de transaction communément appelée "earn out" est le sujet de la discussion aujourd'hui avec mon invité Guillaume Bouchard. Guillaume, qui a vendu son organisation NVI en 2013 au groupe Dentsu Aegis, est resté 5 ans dans l'organisation après avoir été acheté. On discute donc ensemble de la dynamique qui s'installe dans la tête d'un entrepreneur qui reste dans l'entreprise après avoir été acheté. Également, Dentsu Aegis est l'entreprise qui possède Iprospect canada, organisation qu'on fait mention tout au long de l'entrevue.

This month I sat down with another former colleague Scott Sallee. He is the Social Impact Manager for the UK at Dentsu Aegis and he dedicates his time to equipping the next generation of talent with the skills they will need to thrive in the digital economy, creating more diversified leadership, and transforming the role of brands in society. We chatted about his career path which covered Paris, Evian, and London as well as a spell in California as well as the mental health challenges he has faced and overcome. It's not always easy so thanks again, Scott. You're an inspiration! He co-Chairs the Wellbeing Committee, is on the Steerco of &Proud, leads the all-company Meditation Mondays, is a board member of the IPA's Creative Pioneers, and is an ambassador for NABS, the industry's wellbeing charity partner. A truly amazing story and an inspiration - I hope you enjoy it!
This month I sat down with a former colleague and my friend, Elekia. She is an Account Director at gyro, a B2B advertising agency that is part of the Dentsu Aegis Network. She currently works on a large tech account within the media team. She is also co-founder and chair of Represent, a network for Dentsu Aegis employees that are from underrepresented backgrounds as well as creating inclusive spaces for allies to have a welcoming place within the business to listen, learn and share experiences to drive positive change. Their mission is for DAN to be a welcoming workplace for the community and a driving force for a culturally progressive & diverse advertising industry. We touch on Elekia's career so far in media and advertising - but more importantly discussed in-depth, racism at work, and the so-called, banter culture some places of work have. Being a black woman she's had to face both racism and issues surrounding gender inequality within the workplace which were really difficult to talk about so I wanted to say thank you to her for being so open.

En tungvekter innen markedsføringI begynnelsen av 2019 var Paal og jeg gjester hos God Morgen Norge, for å snakke om trender for 2019. En av trendene vi snakket om da, var overgangen fra å kjøpe til å leie, men ikke minst abonnere på produkter og tjenester. Foruten den økende abonnements-trenden spådde vi mindre deling i sosiale medier, økt økt bruk av kunstig intelligens og grønnere teknologi. I tillegg trodde og håpet vi at vi kom til å få mer smart og nyttig bruk av smarthøyttalere og at man ikke fikk innvilget lån fordi man hadde får dårlig «karmakonto».Vi tar et raskt tilbakeblikk på hvordan det gikk i 2019, og hvilke trender som vil være de viktigste for 2020.Dentsu AegisDentsu Aegis Network er den ørste globale markedsføringsgruppen skapt for den digitale økonomien.

Vivek Bhargava, CEO, DAN Performance Group heads the digital performance agencies of the reputed Dentsu Aegis Network. Vivek has been on this digital journey since 1997 when he commenced his venture Communicate2 to help Indian companies communicate better having observed the medium’s gradual but gripping impact in the US on his family trips and as a young student. From a time when digital meant at the most having an add-on CD to a corporate brochure to now when it is omnipresent, the journey has been a promising one for Vivek, who is regarded as among the top digital minds in India today. And if anything makes for as enthralling a story is Vivek’s passion for table tennis, a sport he picked up as a seven-year-old when his family suddenly shifted to Mussoorie, a beautiful hill station in Dehradun, India. Vivek took to the sport passionately and went on to play several state tournaments. What may come as a surprise to many though is that Vivek had taken a complete break from playing TT for the 15 years he led Communicate2 until its acquisition by Dentsu Aegis in 2012. Around the same time, an old friend who had come over from the US challenged Vivek to a match and since then, Vivek hasn’t looked back from working on his game. Vivek went on to not only play table tennis regularly but also went on to compete at the national level. He has won a bronze in the 30-plus-age category and a silver in the doubles. He credits his quick comeback to the thorough training he received as a child. Vivek is also committed to improve the visibility of the sport in the country and also owns a table tennis team, Challengers, in the Ultimate Table Tennis League - a professional level table tennis league in India contested by 6 teams. His team had qualified till the finals in the inaugural 2017 season and very recently, about two months ago in the 3rd season of the UTT League had made it to the semi-finals. And if you think this is about it, hold on. Vivek is also an avid chess player and an amateur paragliding pilot. He is also learning the art of standup comedy and has performed a couple of routines. He believes learning to make people laugh especially in his vocation can be of tremendous help. Well, I must admit I had a ball recording this conversation even as Vivek spooked me with some mentalism tricks he had just learned! There were so many aspects which we spoke about at length that this has been one of the toughest conversations to edit considering there’s only so much we can pack – so make the most of it! In this full conversation Vivek delves on his formative years, the critical and indelible influence his father has had on him, his relocation to Mumbai in the 9th grade which he regards as a key milestone, his entrepreneurial journey, his philosophies on happiness, life, sports, leadership, his passions – primarily table tennis and chess, his penchant for learning something new every quarter, topped with some rather interesting facts about Vivek including an app which he uses to meditate and swears by. And all of this is served with hearty doses of laughter. Now with a future standup comedian in tow, we wouldn’t have had it any other way, right? So are you up for this entertaining and inspiring chat? Here we go

In today’s economic and talent climates, HR leaders are looking for the differentiator that sets them apart from the competition, but also makes them standout to those job candidates looking for work. Diversity and inclusion is that differentiator. In this episode of the HR Exchange Podcast, host Mason Stevenson sits down with Dentsu Aegis Senior Vice President of HR and Head of Diversity and Inclusion DK Bartley who says not only is diversity and inclusion a differentiator, but a business imperative.
In this episode we’re talking business with James Connelly James is the founder of Fetch, a company he started back in 2009 when he was just 23, and in 2014 the company was acquired by Dentsu Aegis for a reported $48m. Fast forward to today, and 10 days ago James announced that he was stepping down from the company and in his own words ‘having a gap year’ In this episode James talks about: - why he decided to step down - how it feels not having a job anymore - how it felt running a big company in his 20’s - how he balanced his ‘polished’ image vs. being his real self at work - what it feels like to make a lot of money (‘James are you a millionaire?’) - how he’s trying to be more open and honest online for the first time and what that feels like — James has been a big inspiration for me as a young entrepreneur and I absolutely loved talking to him about business and life in this episode - I hope you enjoy too :) Ps.

Never miss your #MediaSnack - subscribe for updates every Friday On this week's #MediaSnack we look at the sudden wave of CEOs departing UK media agencies, 4 big names in one week left their respective media leadership positions. All 4 of the stories seemed to be exclusives to the team at Campaign, links below. What's causing this rush to depart/escape/fire [delete as appropriate]? There may be something in the water, its a good time of year for change of leadership as it allows new blood to impact the next calendar year's planning. But why are the rates of churn amongst agency CEO's increasing and why are the average tenures of agency CEOs decreasing in both London and New York? We consider what is it that makes the media agency CEO job so tough these days and what kinds of skills might be required of the future media agency leadership. 'Its Time For a Change of the Guard at Media Agencies' (Oct 2016) https://blog.idcomms.com/its-time-for-a-changing-of-the-guard-at-media-agencies On this week's Good Week/Bad Week we think that its a good week for the UK media industry (despite the leadership losses) as two of the UK's major advertisers launch reviews of their media activity: The UK Government's £150m media investment (currently with Dentsu Aegis in the UK) and SKY's £400m media investment (currently with Mediacom in the UK) will stress test agency capability in Q1 2018, just in time for new agency to prove their mettle. Both pitches have been launched with clear messages of change and demanding greater accountability from media agencies.

Today's guest is a serial entrepreneur. If you haven't heard of his latest company you've very likely seen their work on awarded and effective websites for clients like Marketo, Visa, Air Newzleand, Spark, and Les Mills. Having started just six years ago with a perfectly timed mix of design, brand marketing, and build for the market, his agency Little Giant came and got big fast. Little Giant was one of New Zealand's fastest growing companies in 2015 on the Deloitte Fast 50. One of Asia Pacific's fastest growing companies in 2015 and 2016, and Mark was named an EY Entrepreneur of the Year finalst in 2017.They grew big and they got bought by one of the leading players in global advertising, the $11 billion annual revenue behemoth Dentsu Aegis. It's a huge achievement in a short time but it wasn't Mark's first rodeo. He's been starting companies since he was 17 and learned some hard lessons along the way that he's turned into his exit and next launching pad. Mark Hurley joined us on the podcast.

Carat og Dentsu Aegis har undersøkt millennium-generasjonen og funnet ut at denne gruppen - også omtalt som digitale innfødte er varig annerledes enn andre generasjoner og at deres mentalitet går langt dypere enn kun digitaliseringsaspektet. Vi har tatt millennial-praten med Lise Tangen Hansen, direktør for analyse og innsikt i Carat Norge. Viser millennials veien ser det dårlig ut ikke bare for papiravisen, men også for TV. På ett år har TV-seingen blant unge falt med 30 prosent. Nå er hver tredje seer over 60 år. Facebook har ansatt 3000 nye moderatorer, og har totalt 7,500 personer som jobber utelukkende med å fjerne upassende innhold fra plattformen. Men tror virkelig Facebook at de kan fikse utfordringene med å ansette noen tusen moderatorer, eller er dette rene symbolhandlinger for å unngå gigantbøter i Europa?

This week's #MediaSnack is all about data strategies, viewability, ad fraud and key client watch-outs when it comes to programmatic. David is joined by one of the most experienced people in ad:tech - Wayne Blodwell. For the last couple of years he led programmatic initiatives at Dentsu Aegis and GroupM in the UK but has now founded a consultancy offering programmatic advice to brands, agencies and media vendors. David and Wayne start with some context. Programmatic is now one of the fastest-growing disciplines in advertising. Brands are expected to spend almost $40bn on programmatic this year, with more half of all display transactions now conducted this way. Next, they look at how programmatic strategy differs from traditional marketing strategy, and Wayne identifies the key elements that make the former successful: data, segmentation, creative, activation and measurement. Wayne and David also discuss the vexed question of whether brands should take programmatic in-house. Earlier this year, ID Comms’ Global Media Talent report highlighted the fact that advertisers are expected to develop their programmatic skills internally in the next two or three years. There are already signs of such investment, the most recent example coming from the UK, with Diageo's hire of Gawain Owen as Head of Programmatic. While agencies currently have the greater tools and talent, and are well informed to make decisions for their client, big brands that are spending more and more on programmatic do need to get closer to the data and the tech that's enabling it. They also need to get a handle on issues such as ad fraud, viewability and ad-blocking to ensure they are not needlessly exposed to risk. Finally, Wayne summarises his three key recommendations for advertisers. Firstly, they need to think about their data, first-party as well as the data that they have access to. Second, they need to think about technology and whether these decisions are being made appropriately for each brand. Thirdly, they need to think big and take advantage of programmatic beyond the simple placement of display. Getting programmatic right will allow marketers to make smarter decisions and get more value from their media investment.

On this week’s #MediaSnack we celebrate an epic list of the 50 Most Innovative CMOs In The World written by Lara O’Reilly at Business Insider. Business Insider segmented the world’s marketing leaders into 4 interesting categories; The Connectors, The Rebels, The Integrators and The Storytellers. It is interesting to note the mix of old and new, notably that the CMO’s at Google and Netflix account for the top two positions. The word ‘media’ appears 25 times across the 50 CMO profiles, whilst the word ‘advertising’ only appears 17 times. Perhaps an indication of the shifting focus of the CMO to take a more pro-active interest in media? What’s certain is that this list tells us the individuals within the world’s most ambitious and exciting brands who will set the narrative for the future of the industry. Also in the news this week, a Dominic Mills blog lifts the lid on an apparently highly secretive plan by Dentsu-Aegis Network to launch a digital media buying (or is it audience selling?) platform akin to GroupM’s Xasis, that is a non-disclosed media buying model which would allow advertisers no right to audit media prices. These types of buying methods, which exist in most all of the other agency groups already, are regarded as delivering particularly healthy profit margins by allowing the agency to mark up media inventory in opaque ways. They operate as ‘Principal-based buying’, that is the agency buying and then selling on the media opportunity to the advertiser (see here for more explanation on PBB). The (perfectly valid) argument in support of this approach is that in not disclosing the price paid, that the agency can negotiate lower media prices for the advertiser compared to using a fully transparent model. Some advertisers love this approach, getting more for less always sounds like a good idea. Whilst many other brands can’t tolerate the lack of transparency. Whichever side of this barbed fence you sit, it still begs the question as to why Dentsu-Aegis thought that a ‘cloak-and-dagger’ approach to launching this to US advertisers would serve them well in the long term. These things have a habit of leaking out and it was only a matter of time before questions were raised about the need for secrecy at a time of low trust in media agency digital media operations. We will wait to see if Agyle Advantage - for that is what this secret plan is called - becomes a serious proposition, giving advertisers more choice in the principal based / arbitrage approach to media buying. But it does seem to sit against the underlying trend to offer more transparency, visibility and control to the advertiser. The agency in this case obviously sees a demand (or a tantalising margin) which has driven this new product release. It is time to ask ourselves, who will actually define the media agency of the future? We have the simple answer, its the Marketers. As we’ve discussed many times before, the blueprint for a media agency will be defined by the marketer, typically based on a narrative and vision set by the CMO. Which is one of the reasons why the Business Insider Top CMOs list is so important. It is their marketing ambition and vision which will determine the role for media, how brands will invest in connecting with customers and therefore what will be required from the media agency landscape. We can already see this taking shape in some pitch briefs for 2017, brands are having a very clear point of view of exactly what media agency resources they need to support and reflect their own internal media management operational structures. Many are following best practice in preparation for media agency pitches by really defining the blueprint for a new agency model and ensuring a well-organised, accountable and transparent process. It is the only way to be a priority pitch in a busy 20176 market and to get the best out of competing agencies.
On this week's #MediaSnack we are back to school, after an unusually busy summer for the media industry, we review some of the biggest stories of the last 3 months. This will help catch you up if you've been on the beach. The scale of progress in the global media industry is immense and it's interesting to review what's happened in just the last quarter. First, we review news that Diageo, the global drinks giant has concluded its hasty media agency review and it's pretty much as you were. Dentsu Aegis retained their most important global client. You might recall on a previous #MediaSnack we were surprised that Diageo had called a review because we regarded them a highly loyal to their long relationship with DA agency Carat. Retaining clients of this scale is as good as a win, this year the media agency pitch market has been significantly slower than the madness of 2015's MediaPalooza so these global pitches are highly contested both in terms of the commercial offer and the agency talent working on them. It's an advantage for advertisers like Diageo and IKEA (also running this year, managed by ID Comms) to pitch their accounts in quieter periods because you get more attention for agencies who are not having to spread their resources and commercial power across multiple big advertisers. Next, we discuss a fascinating insight from some research in the US which highlights the huge churn still occurring in the CMO role. 50% of major retail advertisers in the US have changed their CMO in the leat year! And over 60% of those found replacements outside their company. This churn seems to indicate a broad dissatisfaction with CMO's likely because the role of a CMO is changed but companies are not able to describe what they need. Our review of the busy summer shows just how broad the CMO's perspective and expertise needs to be nowadays. It's overwhelming, and then you add on top of this the far greater accountability that marketing is subject to in this competitive digital world. CMO's are expected to turn magic in very short periods. We suspect that this is in because of their organisation's dysfunction which makes it very difficult for CMO's to succeed: The company expects them to transform the business but at the same time is not actually empowering CMO's with the influence internally to activate the changes needed. We consider how this impact the Chief Media Officer role, any media executive needs greater tenure because of the specialist technical knowledge which is required. Companies who transition media directors out of their roles risk losing huge value. Finally, we review some startling evidence found by Gideon Spanier of Campaign in the accounts of the Guardian Media Group. The publisher has made provision in its accounting to pay incentives to media agencies in return for commitments of advertisers budgets. Sometimes this can be in the form of cash rebates. It's another example, following the Daily Mail admitting it puts aside £27m ($40m) each year as rebates to agencies, this amounts to 7% of its total ad revenue. Both examples give welcome transparency into how media agencies can generate income and benefit from committing advertiser spend. This is concerning at a time when Guardian is posting record financial losses and the organisation risks imploding under debt which would be a loss to quality journalism and a loss to the advertising industry. Marketers should welcome the transparency, and we look forward to many more publishers starting to make public their financial arrangements for paying incentives and rebates to media agencies.
