Meta’s Muse hints at a new marketing funnel: convincing the customer’s AI
Imagine asking an AI agent to find a hotel for a weekend in Tokyo, compare the best options, account for your budget and preferences, and make the booking. You never open Google, click a travel ad, visit five hotel websites or compare prices yourself. For marketers, that scenario raises a basic question: if the customer…

Poshmark’s “Try Yourself On” campaign taps fashion’s closet-curiosity
Poshmark is betting on a feeling every fashion person knows: the urge to dig through someone else’s closet and come out with a version of yourself you did not plan on. That “wait, why does this work on me?” moment is the whole point, and it is why this campaign lands during Fashion Month. In…

Samsung turns iPhone Duo launch into a familiar rivalry joke
For years, Samsung had a simple advantage in its iPhone jokes: Apple did not fold. That made every new iPhone launch another chance to remind people that Galaxy had already moved into a form factor Apple was still avoiding. Now Apple finally has a foldable of its own, and the joke has flipped. In its…

Trust Bank turns card spending search into an AI conversation
Trust Bank has launched Trust AI Ask, an in-app conversational feature that lets customers search and understand their card spending using everyday language.

Fitness influencer marketing: how brands build creator programs people believe
Fitness influencer marketing works because the product can often be seen doing its job. Shoes appear during a run, apparel survives a training session, a recovery device becomes part of a routine, and a coach can explain why a piece of equipment belongs in a program.

Modelo puts more budget behind college football with a “Tradition” platform
There are few things more reliable than college football rituals: the same group chat lighting up, the same rival friend texting “good luck” (lying), and the same tailgate foods you only make a few Saturdays a year. That consistency is the point. Fans are not just watching a game, they are rejoining a yearly identity.…

Jennie’s Adidas collection draws boycott pressure after Israel promo backlash
The fastest way a fashion drop stops being about clothes is when the timeline decides it is actually about values. In fandom spaces, a single campaign image can become a referendum on who you are willing to be associated with, especially when a boycott narrative is already trending. Adidas is facing boycott pressure over a…

AXA Hong Kong taps Sammi Cheng to sell “future-ready” healthcare thinking
Healthcare ads in Hong Kong have gotten slicker, warmer, and more reassuring, but they have also started to blend together. When every insurer is telling you they have the right “network” and the right “coverage,” the emotional promise can feel interchangeable, even if the fine print is not. AXA Hong Kong and Macau is trying…

CIMB’s “red means go” brand film reframes caution as momentum
CIMB is playing with one of the most hardwired visual cues in everyday life: red as a stop sign. The twist is simple but sticky, what if red means go? In its regional brand film, the bank leans into that tension between hesitation and forward motion, then uses it to introduce its new brand promise,…
