50-Plus Marketing

News, views and opinions about the most powerful group of consumers - the 50-plus market.

AdAge takes an interest in the UK

It is not often that AdAge comments about the UK, not often it comments about UK agencies and never (I think I am right in saying) that it comments about a UK agency, which is yet to be launched, that will focus on the 50-plus (or as tgi50 likes to say the “50-just”). I have already commented about tgi50.

It just shows you the power of the personal brand. The founder is Robert Campbell who was the co-founder of London agency Rainey Kelly Campbell Roalfe. After the sale of the business he became vice chairman of Y&R Europe, Middle East and Africa and then VP at McCann Erickson for the same region.

Well done Robert. No beating about the bush - I am jealous! Dick Stroud

It's what happens when you're so ahead of the curve you're off the radar (aren't mixed metaphors fun?).

Now the over 50 thing is hot - and there's this NEW agency - so it's NEWS. You're not news. You're the story they missed four or five years ago. You're an embarrassment to Ad Age and the news media.

That said, I also wish the best for this outfit. Looks like they have some talented folks involved.
