🌿 Long-term partnerships built on trust and results

We’ve worked with Willow Pastures Holiday Park for over 6 years, supporting their marketing activity with campaigns that are effective, well-managed and tailored to their industry.

The relationship has grown through a shared understanding of their brand and goals, and a collaborative approach that makes everything feel easy and hassle-free.

It's always a pleasure working with a client who’s open to new ideas and ready to push campaigns further year after year.

Thanks to the Willow Pastures team for the kind words.

📺 TV advertising has come a long way

Our latest blog explores how the world of TV advertising has transformed from big-budget, one-size-fits-all campaigns to highly targeted, flexible strategies that work brilliantly for bold, growth-focused brands.

Gone are the days of simply booking a slot and hoping for the best. With tools like postcode targeting, platform insights and BARB data, brands can now speak directly to their audience in a way that fits their goals and budget.

As a TV advertising agency in Yorkshire, we help our clients navigate this evolving landscape with smart planning, creative strategy and campaigns that cut through.

If you think TV’s out of your reach, it’s time to take another look.

Rodgers of York Case Study

We’re excited to share the results of our work with Rodgers of York, an iconic, family-owned furniture retailer with over 130 years of heritage.

They asked us to help modernise their media approach and connect with new customers, while staying true to their commitment to quality and service.

We delivered a smart, multi-channel strategy that combined TV, press, door drops, radio, digital and Out of Home. Every element was designed to work together, keeping the creative consistent and putting their brand in front of the right audiences.

For a local independent brand with a big story to tell, this campaign was all about bringing Rodgers of York’s legacy to life while reaching new customers in new ways.

✨ Fiona’s Finds

Spotted by our very own Fiona, the FLANNELS Cube lighting up Oxford Street with serious wow-factor.

We’re talking 37 individual 8K LED screens seamlessly synced to create a jaw-dropping 3D visual experience that practically stops you in your tracks.

From slow-turning product reveals to immersive campaigns that wrap around the corner of the building, this is OOH with main character energy. It’s bold, dynamic, and demands attention… just how we like our media.

This kind of space doesn’t just display ads, it puts brands on stage. Whether it’s fashion, tech, or lifestyle, creative here becomes part of the Oxford Street experience itself.

📺 Big updates from the Channel 4 Agency Showcase last week

Some of our team headed down to catch the latest insights, and one thing that really stood out was Channel 4’s new Attribution offering.

Jo summed it up perfectly:
💬 "I'm excited to see that Channel 4 now offers Attribution, a game-changer for our clients. We can now track household-level actions after viewers have seen an ad, giving us deeper insights into campaign performance and return on investment. It's a fantastic tool for making smarter, data-driven media decisions."

This kind of transparency and measurement is exactly what modern media planning needs. We’re looking forward to building it into future campaigns and showing just how effective TV can really be.

💛 A morning well spent

We’ve proudly supported East Yorkshire Food Bank for the last couple of years, and last week some of the team spent the morning volunteering, helping sort supplies and seeing first-hand the vital work they do in our community.

They’re currently low on stock, so if you’d like to donate, drop us a message, and you can bring food donations to our office.

🎤 A brilliant day at Business Day 2025 at Bridlington Spa, packed with conversations, inspiration, and a few unexpected jabs (literally).

From the moment Gyles Brandreth took the mic as host and interviewer, the energy was spot on, witty, insightful, and impossible not to enjoy.

💡 In the Unlocking Growth breakout session, it was great to hear from Rix Group on how they’re expanding through smart acquisitions and creating unique customer experiences that position them as leaders in the leisure space.

🤝 The Humber: Securing a Brighter Future session sparked some powerful discussion around shared challenges and made it clear that collaboration is absolutely key to securing long-term regional success.

🥊 And a definite highlight... Luke Campbell’s open and honest chat with Gyles, reflecting on his journey through boxing and his passion for championing Hull and East Yorkshire. His impromptu boxing lesson with Gyles had the whole room smiling!

🎙️ To close the day, Piers Morgan shared stories and insights from his career, a headline-worthy end to a packed and powerful event.

Big conversations, big personalities, and a big reminder that growth, partnership, and pride in place matter more than ever.
