Brands Must Create Entertainment in Creator Age
At the inaugural Jupiter Festival in Miami, industry experts outlined ten practical rules for brands navigating the creator age. Key takeaways include: brands must adopt mobile-first storytelling and understand vertical video's unique grammar, audiences follow attention across platforms, and building persistent brand worlds is more valuable than one-off placements. Successful content discovery requires significant marketing investment, and brands should integrate creator capability internally. Hiring individuals who have demonstrated audience-building skills is advised, and creators should be treated as infrastructure, not a campaign tactic. Unilever's expansion from 10,000 to 300,000 creator relationships exemplifies scalability. Ultimately, brands must create compelling content that audiences choose to watch, rather than interrupting them with overt commercial messages.
Céline Flores Willers urges B2B marketers to think like B2C
At DMEXCO 2026, Céline Flores Willers, founder of The People Branding Company, argued that B2B marketing often appears outdated due to fear of innovation (FOMU). She demonstrated creative tactics like using a robot sidekick 'Robi' and branded T-shirts to boost attention and branding. She highlighted LinkedIn as the central platform for B2B, citing a SAP Taulia case where employee-generated content, boosted via Thought Leader Ads, achieved 2.3x higher engagement and 70% higher click-through rates with a small budget. Willers also cited examples like Legora's campaign with Jude Law and Merz Lifecare's 25-post merger documentation as successful 'building in public' strategies. She concluded by urging B2B marketers to be more creative and learn from B2C approaches.
