With the launch of its first women’s collection in April 2018 fashion brand PAISLEY is entering a new era. But it also wants to start a new era for women on a much bigger scale. The unadjusted Gender Pay Gap in Germany is 21%* (Federal Office Of Statistics, 2017). To change that, german creative hotshot MAYD, PAISLEYs Lead-Agency, started the next big campaign: FEM Currency. FEM is a new currency for women only, which is worth 21% more than any given currency. That means women who pay with FEM get 21% more. To start, Fem is available at the Paisley store where you can exchange your euros for FEM. Like any currency, FEM has its own notes. They are specially designed with several security features to avoid misuse. Each FEM note highlights a historic female figure like Marie Curie, Ada Lovelace, Amelia Earhart, Jane Austin, Rosa Luxemburg and Florence Nightingale, all who helped shape our society and pave the way for all women today. PAISLEY’S mission is to get as many partners on board to keep this project going until the gender pay gap is no longer a topic that needs addressing. And the interest is already overwhelming with the first stores already requesting to join the initiative.

Whosyabuddah: From physical love to daily digital karma! Last friday on Buddha’s birthday we have launched Whosyabuddha. He drops hip hop flavored wisdom for those who give him physical love. If you rub his belly with a NFC-chip (RFID) he will send you some digital daily karma through Twitter to kickstart your day. To enter our headquarters in Utrecht (the Netherlands) we use an NFC-chip. That gave us the idea to give our collegeas something extra with their daily check-in. A small act of kindness besides a nice cup of coffee, that charges their karma before they start their workday. When you rub Whosyabuddha's belly with the NFC-chip, a public transport card or a mobile phone, an Arduino unit will read the chip. After this Whosyabuddha will search for the perfect wisdom in the holy database. Through text to speech hip hop flavored wisdom will be spoken by Whosyabuddha. Simultaneously, a tweet will be sent via the Twitter API to the person in question. From thuglife to huglife! Give it a try and pay us a visit or send a tweet to @whosyabuddha. Smacking daily karma in ya face! Digital advertisement created by Rhinofly, Netherlands for Rhinofly, within the category: Agency Self-Promo.

In the midst of the pandemic, femicides and domestic violence cases reached alarming numbers. The Puerto Rico Section of Amnesty International (AIPR), a worldwide movement of people fighting against human rights abuses, decided to put the distressing data in front of the people to compel action. The result was The Bloody Data, a shocking campaign highlighting the statistical data on women who have bled from femicides in Puerto Rico during 2020. The campaign launched on November 25, International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. The twist? Menstrual blood remains a taboo in Puerto Rico and is considered by many to be repulsive. Still the bloodshed of women due to violence doesn’t generate such disgust. Amnesty presents de data using menstrual pads, cup and tampons, challenging viewers to rethink their bias and direct outrage to the only blood that should be disgusting: the blood spilled by gender violence. The campaign lived in print, outdoor, social media and www.thebloodydata.com, a website were ultimately you could sign a petition calling for an official stance from Puerto Rico’s government against gender violence. The petition gathered hundreds of signatures and attracted support in more than 25 countries around the world and grabbed the attention of newspapers and online media. Two months after its launch, Governor Pedro Pierluisi declared a State of Emergency for Gender Violence in Puerto Rico. The executive order prioritizes gender issues in all government agencies, calling for the implementation of comprehensive sexual education with gender perspective, a deep change in the police and judicial system to serve victims with dignity and allocates money from the national budget to address gender violence.

New Lada Granta “Keeping The Word” launch campaign Lada Granta is a legendary car in Avtovaz lineup and one of the top-3 best-selling cars on the Russian market. However, it has the cheapest price among other models and therefore appreciated as a multipurpose vehicle for daily use, not a dream car. Research shows that people are losing trust in ads. They tend to believe in stories told by real people. That is why we created true life stories about real people who keep their promises. Stories that got under the skin and into the heart of our audience and caused the unprecedentedly warm response. Many people across Russian regions live simple lives not asking for recognition, money or fame. They do what they have to do, and often do it for others, disregarding their own needs. Such is the Russian common folk is. No matter the circumstances and difficulties he faces, he will keep his word, once given. He is reliable, unpretentious, honest, and humble. Selfless acts are common and expected of him. His close ones depend on him. You can rely on him, but he can rarely rely on his car, which is usually an either a poorly built one or an old one. Reliable person needs a reliable car. We elevate the everyday challenges of our everyday hero to the level of deep human drama, and we celebrate those who keep their word no matter the circumstances. As a result, VTR and CTR were 2-4 times above market norm and the average viewing time was 75%, 3 times greater than the 30” benchmark defined for video of automotive segment.
