We always love it when one of our own takes the stage! Earlier this year, Thompson Spencer’s Lior Kitain spoke at HubTalks: Innovating Sales & Marketing for FY26, hosted by Urban Hub.

Lior shared his insights on why many marketing campaigns fail and how to create campaigns that deliver real results. He emphasised the importance of clear priorities, a distinctive and compelling message, and long-term consistency. A good reminder that short-term, “spray and pray” approaches rarely succeed.

A part of our in-house performance team Reason, Lior is a Lead Media Consultant bringing six years of expertise to our clients. His presentation reinforced that successful marketing is focused, repeatable, and memorable, and that businesses need to be in it for the long run to see real impact.

Thank you to Urban Hub, all the speakers, and attendees for an inspiring evening of connection, insights, and ideas.

Following our landmark merge with Reason, we’ve got seven specialist brands (including an in-house production suite) all united under one brand, and Megan is here to help orchestrate all the incredible opportunities that integration unlocks for our clients.

We’re super proud to have her on board helping us to write the score for unstoppable impact…and the industry has already noticed 👀

This one was purrfect 🐾

For the launch of Temptations Creamy Spoons, we teamed up with some of NZ’s most paw-some creators (and their cats) to bring the mess-free magic to life.
This Reels-first campaign showed just how irresistible Creamy Spoons really are - turning treat time into joyful, chaos-free connection.

🥄 No mess.
🐱 Just licks, love, and a whole lot of cat-titude.
📈 Designed to shift perception, spark trial, and make Temptations the obvious choice for modern cat parents.

Because when the spoon comes out… the cats come running.

Client — Temptations Cat Treats

Madison Trevella steps in as Head of Media, bringing extensive strategy and client leadership experience from her time at Reason (which merged with Thompson Spencer earlier this year) and nearly three years at OMD New Zealand. Based in Melbourne, Madison is focused on connecting brand strategy with performance outcomes.

Joining her in Auckland are Jake Calder as Media Director/Futurist, formerly of OMD and MBM, with deep expertise in programmatic media and digital transformation. Jake has also chaired the IAB Programmatic Council and Emerging Tech Council, driving innovation in media.

Libby Frost joins as Media Planner, bringing a strong background in media strategy, digital planning, and integrated campaign delivery from her time at Essencemediacom and diverse agency and client roles.

🎤 Throwing it back to May and , where our very own Creative Lead Zinnia Dogra joined a stellar line-up of social media innovators to discuss “Turning Your Crew into Creators.”

She unpacked the value of harnessing internal talent to drive authentic, high-impact content — and how thinking like a creator can boost reach, engagement, and brand loyalty.

With insights drawn from her experience across industries from architecture to fashion to performing arts, she left the audience ready to rethink how they approach content creation from the inside out.
