Wavemaker

London, United Kingdom · 3,391 people

At Wavemaker we believe there is always a better way to grow. We know that growth models of the past will not serve the future. Established approaches and traditional thinking are being exploded in every sector, in every market. But exceptional growth requires uncomfortable change – and this change demands courage, from our clients and from our people. That’s why we’ve built Provocative Planning, a way of working powered by our spirit of restless enquiry in pursuit of better outcomes. It rejects traditional linear planning in favour of a modular approach, fusing machine learning and human intelligence in a unique way that gets the best from both. The three growth modules in Provocative Planning – Unlock, Maximize and Transform – provoke growth at different speeds, for today, ongoing, and for tomorrow. Positive Provocation empowers our people every bit as much it does our clients. It inspires us to be well-informed, careful listeners with the confidence and knowledge to ask tough questions. We become more confident, more courageous, more capable. When we positively provoke, we Grow Fearless. We shape consumers’ brand decisions and experiences through media, content and technology. Wavemaker’s Provocative Planning is fuelled by the world’s most powerful consumer decision-making data. This means we know where and how you can win customers. The intelligent insight this provides feeds our world-class precision capabilities in every area of our business, from planning and activation, to our integrated practices such as ecommerce and content – provoking growth for many of the world’s leading brands and businesses. #GrowFearless #PositiveProvocation

Zenith UK

London, United Kingdom · 145 people · Est. 1988

Welcome to Zenith – the ROI agency. Nowadays, brands want rapid, spectacular growth and they expect media to deliver it. Clients used to give us media briefs that said “deliver 80% awareness” or “give me an impactful Christmas campaign”. Now we hear: “take me from 4th to 1st in my category”, “help me grow 10% in a market declining 10%” or “make me the most loved brand in my industry”. These are huge asks of media, that can’t be met through tweaking the media plan of two years ago. Decades of advertising research prove that without a big change, large brands stay large and small brands stay small. This is why Zenith help brands make bold moves. Bold moves are big, brave changes to media strategy, delivering more impact for brands and more value for consumers. Bold moves are backed up with a solid forecast – they are a better path to growth. Bold moves build a partnership – we believe in this approach so much we link our growth to your success. Bold moves bring bigger ROI. This approach works for our clients, our people and consumers – it’s why we are recognised as the UK’s best media agency. Campaign's Best Places to Work 2023 and The Sunday Times Best Places to work 2024.
