The Great Re-bundling Debate: Should Media and Creative Come Back Together?

• Tuesday, 5:00 - 6:00pm The Great Re-bundling Debate: Should Media and Creative Come Back Together? WORKSHOP FACILITATOR: Paul Woolmington Naked Communications Noah Brier Naked Communications

THE RULES • Be nice . . . • But don’t be afraid to challenge • Interrupt at any point • Talk to each other

THE AGENDA • Deﬁnitions • History • Pros & Cons • New models • Rules of engagement

UNBUNDLED • Agencies that specialize is a particular part of the marketing puzzle. This can be as broad as media/ creative or as narrow as SEO.

BUNDLED • An agency where media, strategy, creative and (increasingly) technology is all housed under one roof.

HOLDING COMPANY • Lots of unbundled/bundled agencies living within a larger organization.

HOW DID WE GET HERE? VOL. 1 • Media agencies were tired of getting pushed around and decided to take their expertise (and money) elsewhere.

HOW DID WE GET HERE? VOL. 2 • The endless spectrum of digital made specialization even more of a necessity. • At the same time, the blurred lines between media and creative made us wonder if re-bundling made more sense.

THERE’S NO ONE ANSWER • Like most things, it ebbs and ﬂows.

PROS AND CONS

FOOD FOR THOUGHT • How do you integrate? • Which structure is more objective? • Where does digital fall into the mix? • Integrated vs. holding company • Role of client vs. agency

RULES OF ENGAGEMENT • “A clear strategic focus” • “Clearly deﬁning agency scopes” • “Frequent and open agency feedback” • “Training and strategic engagement of our agency partners” • “Recognizing and celebrating successes” SOURCE: “Maximizing unbundled agency performance - a case study.” Lisa Wellington, The Advertiser, February 2006, pp.22-24

NEW MODELS? • Executive Producer • Client-controlled
