In ‘Christmas Love Story’, released last week, a young woman and man meet on a train and, after realizing they have a connection, frantically try to exchange phone numbers as she leaves the train. Sadly, the phone number that is written on the back of a lottery ticket gets smudged and viewers are left on the edge of their seats wondering if the pair will meet again.

To coincide with the film, a special build out-of-home ad featuring the couple will run at The Pump Station at Westfield Shepherd’s Bush for the next two weeks.

Standing 2.6m high and 7.6m across, the billboard comes complete with twinkling Christmas lights and an enormous lottery ticket that waves in the wind.

Anna McInally, head of marketing communications at The National Lottery, said: “We want to bring our Christmas love story to as many people in as many formats as possible. Our special build at Westfield is designed to raise awareness of our lucky love-struck couple and bring a bit of Christmas magic to people as they do their Christmas shopping.”

Lovehoney produces how-to guide for turning off Google SafeSearch to access site

UK sexual wellness brand Lovehoney has created an instructional guide to raise awareness of how it can be hidden by Google’s SafeSearch. The SafeSearch feature, when turned on, prevents Google searches from returning ‘explicit’ results, but the brand argues this is being implemented inconsistently. For example, organic results and paid ads for the Lovehoney site – which contains actual sexual wellness advice – are blocked, while its products still show up on the sites of other retailers. As part of the awareness campaign, Lovehoney has unveiled an animated video guide with the aim to help those ‘suffering from SafeSearch’ (symptoms of which include suppressed sexual happiness). The guide walks consenting adults through the process of turning SafeSearch off, in turn showing them how to find Lovehoney without any issues. Lovehoney has also created an advice page with additional information on SafeSearch, as well as a step-by-step guide on switching it off. Lovehoney stated that it

Marketers beware: web3 and crypto are not synonymous

Crypto winter got you rethinking your web3 strategy? Don’t think too fast. Allie Dietzek, head of growth at Siberia, highlights why it’s important for marketers to understand the differences between web3 and crypto. Many marketers are trying to wrap their minds around web3 and understand what it means for their brands. But some have been reluctant to embrace web3 due to its connections with cryptocurrency, fearing that troubles for the latter spell doom for the former.

Removing the association may allow marketers to view the potential of web3 from a new perspective and embrace the technology and the passionate community behind it. Here are a few of the very real differences between crypto
