March is here and honestly the weather has been kinda cute… considering we’re in the UK, I’ll take it!

Let me reintroduce myself - I’m Stephanie J, your Creative Brand Marketing Consultant. I don’t just do marketing - I live it.

From LinkedIn personal branding to marketing ideation, execution, and strategy, I’m the one brands tap in with when they need fresh, impactful, and culture-driven marketing moves.

I also yap on panels and in workshops, so if your company needs someone to shake up the way they approach LinkedIn personal branding or marketing as a whole… do me a favour and make sure my name is in the room pls!

But let’s talk marketing real quick - I’ve not been moved by anything lately. Or maybe I just haven’t seen something that’s really popped off.

So, I’m going to ask y’all - what brands should be creating campaigns right now?

Social News 🗞️ 

Featured Campaign: CeraVe’s Claw Machine Pop-Up

CeraVe just made skincare shopping way more fun with this activation - a claw machine where attendees could win everything from skincare essentials to branded merch and even a year’s supply of CeraVe 😍

Instead of a typical product giveaway, this setup added a playful, interactive element that tapped into nostalgia while keeping the brand top of mind.

Smart, engaging & a win-win for both CeraVe and their audience!

Honorable Mentions:

• SET ACTIVE: Turned a production mishap into a viral moment. When they realised a batch of their Sportbody collection ran smaller than intended, they didn’t try to brush it under the rug. Instead, they flipped the narrative and dropped a ‘BLOOPERS’ collection - completely owning the mistake.

• Moët & Chandon x Formula 1: The official champagne sponsor of Formula 1’s season opener in Australia. Luxury meets high-energy sport. Created a moment of excitement and celebrating the race with style.

Something’s Coming… 👀

I won’t say too much just yet, but just know… marketing is about to get a whole lot more fun.

So, stay locked in. More details very soon 👀

This newsletter was supposed to drop last Friday, and NO ONE said a word?? So y’all don’t love this forreal? Let me know what’s teaaaaa 🫣😂

Your gworl has been off the radar (on LinkedIn at least), but I took my ass back on TikTok and I hope I’m here to stay. So y’all, show me some love over there, please!

I got flewed out! (kinda) Went to Manchester with Beyond Education, met so many lovely people, and had the best time! PLUS, I finally met my girlie I used to work with but the gag is, it was a remote role, so we had only met once before! But we’ve been locked in ever since 🥹💖

BIG NEWS: I hit 18K on LinkedIn and I’m SO happy & grateful for all the love and support! Y’all really rock with me, and I appreciate it so much.
