Supermarkets running promotions hope to encourage shoppers to visit their shops and spend more while they are there. Retail expert Chris Wilkinson said the promotions sometimes pushed people to buy certain products, if there was the promise of more giveaways with those items. He said there had been a wider trend towards people doing more frequent, smaller shops, rather than one big transaction, and giveaways related to certain levels of spending could encourage people to spend more each time. One Auckland shopper said it had changed her behaviour. She had switched her weekly shop from Pak'nSave to Woolworths to collect the set her grandson wanted. "He's now got them all, so I will be looking forward to going back to Pak'nSave and saving a bit of money." She said she had sometimes topped up her order with something like a pack of chewing gum, if she was close to getting another pack. Consumer head of advocacy Gemma Rasmussen said Woolworths' strategy seemed to be about gamification. "They know there will be children out there to collect all those items. There's a bit of hype around them. What they're trying to incentivise you to do is stay loyal. I would say to anyone who's thinking about doing that, think about what that could be potentially costing you, because we do price analysis comparison on the major supermarkets, and time and again, Pak'nSave comes out the cheapest." ## Why does it appeal? Massey University marketing expert Bodo Lang said Ooshies followed several well-established marketing principles and tapped into "deep-seated drivers of consumer behaviour". "First, the potential market is broad. Many grocery shoppers have children or grandchildren, or know someone who does. Ooshies are therefore relevant to a large proportion of shoppers. They are also versatile toys. They are pocket-sized and colourful, and their well-known movie personalities give them a presence that belies their small physical size. Importantly, there are many different characters, spanning genres such as science fiction, fantasy, action, comedy and superheroes. There is likely to be an Ooshie that appeals to almost every child." He said the familiarity of the characters helped their success. "Most New Zealand adults and children will recognise at least some of the characters, because they come from famous family movies and entertainment franchises. This familiarity is a major driver of their popularity. Ooshies would be much less successful, if they featured unknown characters." When inflation was eroding disposable incomes, he said, the chance to give kids a treat that didn't cost anything in the shopping was appealing. "Ooshies also tap into consumers' deep-seated desire to collect items and achieve a sense of completion by obtaining every item in a set. The fact that some characters are rarer than others adds excitement and encourages continued collecting."  ## Wider impact Ooshies have also spawned other business activity. Dhara Pereira, co-founder of 3D printing company 3D Verse, said she had dealt with orders "pretty much non-stop", since the company started advertising an Ooshies display stand. "It has been a huge help for us as a small business and we're now working on adding more products for our website. The idea came after I saw a similar type of display online and asked my husband, Jono, who does our design work, whether he could create something like it. He then designed our own version especially for our customers."  ## What about New World? New World is offering Smeg knives, which Wilkinson said seemed to be aimed at a different part of the market. He said the New World offer seemed to have higher value, while Ooshies were more of a novelty product. "Would it really drive destination decisions? Probably for a smaller portion of the market than what Foodstuffs is achieving with its ranges. They've moved away from the likes of Little Gardens and things like that... they've recognised that consumers want more from those promotions." He said Woolworths was rolling out the same promotion in New Zealand and Australia, while New World's was targeted for New Zealand consumers. University of Auckland marketing expert Michael Lee said he was a Woolworths shopper, so had started collecting Ooshies. "I don't think it would have changed my shopping behaviour, if I were not already shopping at Woolworths. However, the new Smeg promotion at New World has got my attention and I am considering shopping there for the duration of the promotion, as it involves a much higher end prestigious brand. In that sense, the New World promotion has changed my personal shopping behaviour, thereby making it more successful in my opinion."]]></description> <author>contact@marketingremotejobs.app (MarketingRemoteJobs.app)</author> <category>ooshies</category> <category>supermarketpromotions</category> <category>consumerbehavior</category> <category>gamification</category> <category>retailmarketing</category> <enclosure url="https://tvnz-1-news-prod.cdn.arcpublishing.com/resizer/v2/ooshies-listed-for-sale-on-trademe-V2LRATICHVCEPANK66TYJIND4U.jpg?auth=b35015a89edf703a162c5d10f5aa36c4fc6b5f6799396412225d04329e4cb5ca&quality=70&width=600&height=315&focal=484%2C157" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Thinkerbell's Hi-Vis: Making Your Brand Impossible for AI to Ignore]]></title> <link>https://www.marketingremotejobs.app/article/thinkerbells-hi-vis-making-your-brand-impossible-for-ai-to-ignore</link> <guid>thinkerbells-hi-vis-making-your-brand-impossible-for-ai-to-ignore</guid> <pubDate>Thu, 06 Aug 2026 08:00:52 GMT</pubDate> <description>< Hi-Vis pairs a diagnostic audit with a prioritised roadmap including technical fixes, owned content improvements, and earned fame strategies.

The leak, via MyMobiles, includes the entire spec sheet and marketing materials that Google hasn't released yet. ## Specs and Performance The Pixel Watch 5 is expected to feature an "accelerated" chip, but it's still unclear whether it will use the Snapdragon W5 Gen 2 or the same SoC as the Pixel Watch 4. The spec sheet mentions a Cortex-M55 processor. The watch will come with **64GB of storage**, likely to support expanded Gemini functionality, and a possible RAM boost to 3GB from 2GB. ## Gemini Features The marketing material highlights Gemini features, including **proactive suggestions** and **context-aware replies** based on conversations. Images show a Google Wallet boarding pass suggestion and surfaced contact information in response to a text. ## Health and Wellness Google is pushing health features, showcasing **loss of pulse detection with automatic SOS** and "most accurate sleep tracking yet." These integrate into **morning insights**, a health-focused daily brief similar to Pixel phones. ## Battery and Bands The battery has been increased to **332mAh** on the 41mm version and **465mAh** on the 45mm variant, though battery life remains unchanged, possibly due to the new processor drawing more power. The leaked images also show second-generation sport bracelets made of **hydrogenated nitrile-butadiene rubber (HNBR)**, a different compound than fluoroelastomer, potentially more comfortable. ## Colors and Pricing The Pixel Watch 5 will come in four colors: **Natural Silver, Dark Anthracite, Warm Gold, and Pyrite**. Warm Gold is exclusive to the 41mm version. Pricing starts at **$399** for the 41mm and **$429** for the 45mm. Google is set to launch the Pixel Watch 5 and Pixel 11 devices on **August 12** during the next Made by Google event.]]></description> <author>contact@marketingremotejobs.app (MarketingRemoteJobs.app)</author> <category>pixelwatch5</category> <category>google</category> <category>wearable</category> <category>gemini</category> <category>leak</category> <enclosure url="https://i0.wp.com/9to5google.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2026/08/Pixel-Watch-5-specs-leaks-header.jpg?resize=1200%2C628&quality=82&strip=all&ssl=1" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[How a Self-Taught Photographer Is Revolutionizing Travel Marketing and Influencing Budgets]]></title> <link>https://www.marketingremotejobs.app/article/how-a-self-taught-photographer-is-revolutionizing-travel-marketing-and-influencing-budgets</link> <guid>how-a-self-taught-photographer-is-revolutionizing-travel-marketing-and-influencing-budgets</guid> <pubDate>Tue, 04 Aug 2026 16:00:35 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[## The Rise of Authentic Visual Storytelling In the competitive world of travel and hospitality marketing, standing out is more crucial than ever. Enter **Jon Kreye**, a self-taught photographer who has turned his passion into a thriving career by capturing the **authentic essence** of properties in a way that traditional photography often misses. Kreye's journey began with a simple cannonball into a pool—a moment he captured on Instagram that not only showcased a stunning new outdoor retreat at the **Omni Viking Lakes Hotel** but also demonstrated the power of **personal, engaging content**. His Reel drew over 72,000 views, dwarfing the hotel's usual reach and proving that **authenticity resonates** with audiences. ## The Power of Personal Branding Kreye's success lies in his ability to blend the personal with the professional. Unlike typical influencers who rely solely on their popularity, Kreye offers a **unique formula**: he combines his personal storytelling with professional-grade visuals, creating content that **stops the scroll**. His clients, including hotel chains, Airbnb hosts, and cruise lines, benefit from his approach, which emphasizes **realness**—natural light, real families, and even moody, rainy vibes when the weather calls for it. His advice to businesses is clear: "Try something you haven't done in the past, something that's actually going to stop people from scrolling." This often means partnering with niche creators who can deliver **higher engagement at a fraction of the cost** of traditional marketing. ## From Hobby to Full-Time Career Kreye's journey from studying YouTube videos to becoming a sought-after photographer is a testament to the **power of self-education** and persistence. His work has taken him from local shoots to international assignments, and his income has soared—he recently earned in eight days what he used to make in a year as a corporate sales associate. ## The Impact on Marketing Budgets The shift toward authentic, creator-driven content is influencing how companies allocate their marketing budgets. Instead of investing heavily in traditional advertising, businesses are now seeing the **value in partnering with influencers** who can provide genuine, relatable content that engages audiences on a deeper level. ## Exec Moves and Industry News In other news, **Best Buy** has named **Anne Bramman** as its new CFO, a move that continues the leadership transition under incoming CEO Jason Bonfig.

Meanwhile, **Hormel** is preparing for a turnaround under new CEO John Ghingo, who emphasizes transparency and deeper consumer connections. **Boston Scientific** faces challenges with its Watchman heart device, leading to a companywide restructuring plan.

The Shocking Truth]]></title> <link>https://www.marketingremotejobs.app/article/is-microsoft-quietly-dominating-b2b-marketing-the-shocking-truth</link> <guid>is-microsoft-quietly-dominating-b2b-marketing-the-shocking-truth</guid> <pubDate>Mon, 03 Aug 2026 16:00:38 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[**Microsoft now touches almost every stage of the B2B buying journey. Its latest earnings show the scale. The real question for marketers is whether that concentration is a gift or a worry.** Every era of marketing has been defined by the company that came to own its dominant channel. Google owned search and Meta owned social and the next era, the one built around how businesses actually buy, may turn out to belong to Microsoft. While the industry spent those years arguing about ChatGPT and the consumer giants, Microsoft was assembling something none of them had. It now owns a piece of almost every stage through which a business gets found, researched, sold to and managed. No single company has ever sat across that much of the professional buying journey at once and most of the marketing world has been looking the other way while it happened. The earnings Microsoft filed on Wednesday evening put a number on the machine. Revenue reached $90bn for the quarter, up 18% on the year, with its cloud business climbing 27% to more than $59bn. Those figures describe the whole company rather than its marketing estate, but they show the scale of the platform that concentration now feeds, and the momentum behind it. Map Microsoft’s holdings against the way a business actually buys and the picture becomes hard to unsee. Professional identity sits with **LinkedIn**, which knows who people are, where they work and what they do for a living. Discovery and research increasingly run through **Copilot** and **Bing**, the assistant and the search index a buyer now reaches for first, while the media that reaches those buyers is sold by **Microsoft Advertising** and the customer relationship that follows is managed in **Dynamics**. All of it takes place inside **Teams** and **Microsoft 365**, the software in which the working day is actually spent. A single owner holds identity, discovery, media, sales and the workplace itself. Nobody else comes close to that spread. Google has search and media, but no professional identity graph and no serious CRM. Salesforce and Adobe own the customer relationship and much of the martech stack, yet neither has media reach or a search index or anything resembling LinkedIn. Amazon has a fast-growing advertising business and the cloud beneath much of the internet, but it reaches businesses as buyers of things rather than as professional identities, with no equivalent of LinkedIn and no grip on the software where the working day is spent. Microsoft is alone in holding every link in the chain and the only one that can join a buyer’s declared professional identity to their search intent and then to the tools they work in all day. 20 years ago, a marketer built a stack from specialists, one supplier for CRM, another for media, another for search, another for analytics and email. Microsoft’s ambition is different in kind: it no longer wants to supply one layer of that stack but to become the stack itself. None of this is accidental and it is worth crediting the people behind it. When Microsoft bought LinkedIn in 2016, the price looked steep and the logic looked fuzzy. A decade on, it reads as the moment the company bought the identity layer of B2B, the one asset that would later let it connect everything else together. Copilot has since been threaded through the entire estate rather than bolted on beside it. The integration is the strategy and it has been executed with a patience most of the industry failed to notice until the pieces were already in place. For B2B marketers, this cuts two ways at once, which is what makes it worth arguing about rather than simply admiring. The case for is real. One owner across identity, intent and the workplace could mean a single coherent view of the buyer, less of the fragmentation that has plagued B2B measurement for years and targeting built on what people have actually declared about their working lives rather than what a consumer profile guesses. Handled well, that is a better deal than the patchwork most marketers live with now. The case against is just as real and it is an older question in a newer form. When one company owns identity, discovery, media and the customer record, marketers increasingly reach their own buyers by renting access from a single landlord. This is the **walled-garden problem** that has long shadowed Google and Meta, except wider, because it stretches across the whole journey rather than one channel of it. Microsoft has always been the company the industry asks the too-powerful question about, from the years when Office ran in every building on earth to the antitrust fights that followed. The difference now is that the question belongs to B2B marketers specifically and they have not yet started asking it out loud. The honest answer is that it is both a gift and a warning and pretending otherwise would flatter one side of a genuine tension. What matters is that marketers weigh it with their eyes open rather than accept it by default. Microsoft has built the most complete position in B2B marketing any company has ever held and the unsettling part is that nobody consciously chose to give it to them. It happened one reasonable integration at a time, while the industry looked elsewhere. The real question now is not whether Microsoft has the power, but whether marketers want to wake up inside an ecosystem they never decided to depend on.]]></description> <author>contact@marketingremotejobs.app (MarketingRemoteJobs.app)</author> <category>microsoft</category> <category>b2bmarketing</category> <category>linkedin</category> <category>copilot</category> <category>walledgarden</category> <enclosure url="https://thedrum-media.imgix.net/thedrum-user-assets-prod/s3/images/original/chatgpt-image-aug-3-2026-08-09-52-am.png?w=1280&ar=default&fit=crop&crop=faces&auto=format" length="0" type="image/png"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Omnicom's New Agency Name Leaked: 'Hearts United' Could Redefine Media Mergers]]></title> <link>https://www.marketingremotejobs.app/article/omnicoms-new-agency-name-leaked-hearts-united-could-redefine-media-mergers</link> <guid>omnicoms-new-agency-name-leaked-hearts-united-could-redefine-media-mergers</guid> <pubDate>Mon, 03 Aug 2026 08:00:34 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[Omnicom has quietly filed trademarks for a new agency name, 'Hearts United', sparking speculation about the brand identity of its upcoming merger between Hearts & Science and Mediahub. While Australia will retain the Mediahub brand, other markets will see a fresh identity, and this trademark hints at what's to come. ### The Trademark Clue Recent filings in IP Australia and the UK's Intellectual Property Office reveal that Omnicom registered 'Hearts United' around the same time the merger was announced. This move suggests a strategic rebranding effort, though Omnicom remains tight-lipped. A spokesperson stated, "Omnicom regularly evaluates and protects a variety of trademarks... No final decisions have been announced." ### What This Means for Australia Despite the global merger, **Australia will keep Mediahub as a separate entity** due to its unique operating model. Hearts & Science, led by Liz Wigmore with 140 staff, will adopt the new global brand, while Mediahub, led by Sue Squillace with 34 staff, continues independently. This dual-brand approach aims to preserve local success while leveraging global strength. ### The Unveiling Industry insiders suggest the new brand identity and logo will be revealed this month, potentially reshaping the media agency landscape. The name 'Hearts United' could signal a focus on collaboration and emotional connection, aligning with Hearts & Science's data-driven, human-centric approach. Stay tuned as Omnicom navigates this strategic evolution, balancing global consistency with local agility.]]></description> <author>contact@marketingremotejobs.app (MarketingRemoteJobs.app)</author> <category>omnicom</category> <category>heartsunited</category> <category>mediaagency</category> <category>merger</category> <category>branding</category> <enclosure url="https://www.bandt.com.au/information/uploads/2026/08/Liz-Wigmore.png" length="0" type="image/png"/> </item> </channel> </rss>
