AVIDLY AND SUPERSON DRIVE POSITIVE CHANGE WITH CO2-FREE ADS - A NEW SUSTAINABILITY PLATFORM FOR ADVERTISERS AND AGENCIES

Share
CO2-Free Ads is a sustainability platform created by Avidly – inviting all marketers, advertisers and agencies to consider, calculate and mitigate CO2 emissions of their marketing activities. CO2-Free Ads includes The Mitigator page: a tool for estimating and mitigating CO2 emissions of marketing activities. Estimating and optimising CO2 emissions in campaign planning makes CO2 compensation possible both for budgeting and in practice.

Climate change is an enormously complex topic. In fact, to really mitigate its plethora of challenges takes far more than what one marketing agency can muster. That’s why Avidly and Superson are approaching the matter from an angle that we are familiar with: marketing and advertising. No matter how sustainable the products and services of any company are, they also must find their audiences and target groups. This requires marketing. To date, there have been no ready-made solutions to enhance sustainability thinking of marketing activities themselves.

CO2-Free Ads is a concept to help estimate marketing CO2 emissions – and it assists in practice in how to successfully mitigate them. Created by Avidly, the tool has been designed in collaboration with CO2esto – a Finnish organisation that specialises in cost-efficient solutions to combat climate and energy challenges. By entering an approximate figure of your marketing actions – whether they consist of planning, production, travelling, or media expenses – the tool estimates your carbon footprint and guides you in how to mitigate the CO2 emissions of your marketing.

Cutting carbon from marketing can be surprisingly cost-efficient. However, positive change cannot be achieved alone: others need to join the cause. Avidly and Superson are now actively looking for more partners to take part in the movement of carbon-free advertising, on a global scale.

Marketing and advertising agencies have been creating award-winning awareness and sustainability campaigns for ages – for their customer organisations. However, the branch itself has not taken big efforts to drive positive change through campaign planning routines and implementation.

“The entire advertising industry stands in a vital position to do genuine climate action. Acknowledging that the most sustainable act would surely be a total run-down of all consuming and advertising, it is not a realistic scenario nor a desirable one. Instead of that, we can make our industry aware of its actions, take accountability, and strive for a more sustainable option”, states Avidly’s CEO Jesse Maula. “As a marketing agency, we exist in an industry that actively works for clients who seek positive change for our environment. That doesn’t exclude us from the equation.”

CO2-Free Ads is an open platform for any company and agency to use. The more it is used, the bigger the impact.

Avidlyn uusi luovan johtamisen malli yhdistää luovan työn ja martechin19.1.2023 10:10:00 EET | Tiedote

Avidly uudisti luovan johtamisen mallinsa. Suomen neljänneksi suurimmassa ja Euroopan kattavimmassa markkinointiteknologian toimistossa luovuutta johdetaan jatkossa kuuden Creative Leadin voimin. Teknologia mahdollistaa markkinoinnin skaalautuvuuden ja vähentää manuaalista työtä. Se tarjoaa mahdollisuuden keskittyä merkityksellisiin asioihin, joissa ihminen on taitavampi kuin kone. Mutta parhaimmillaankin se on vain työkalu, joka tarvitsee rinnalleen vahvan strategian, merkityksellisen luovan sisällön, toimivan prosessin ja laadukkaan designin. Creative Lead -mallin tavoitteena on nivoa paremmin yhteen kaikkea tätä luovaa työtä sekä martech- ja HubSpot-osaamista. Avidlylle uusi luovan työn johtamisen malli palvelee yritystä myös sisäisesti, sillä se vahvistaa tekemisen yhdenmukaistamista Suomen 11 toimipisteessä. ”Haluamme olla entistä luovempi markkinointitoimisto. Näin isossa yrityksessä ja monipuolisessa ympäristössä siihen tarvitaan paljon erilaista osaamista. Siksi luotiin tällain
