?? Be here now
Hello!
Don’t worry, this is a safe space. For this edition of The Inside Story, the final one of the year, we won’t be directing you towards any content marketing trends or predictions. No advice, plans or think pieces for the new year. Instead, we invite you to unwrap another Quality Street and enjoy not having to do a single thing right now. Let’s just be here.
The story of us
Amidst all the last-minute briefs and new pitches, we found the time to dress up as tacky tourists for our year-end party. (We’ll never look at a sun visor the same way.) If you need a soundtrack for December, our audio team rounded up a selection of great podcasts, a chilled playlist and some party songs for our clients – but because you’re on Santa’s “nice” list, you can help yourself to them, too.
Remember, we’re away from our laptops for a bit after 22 December, starting our engines again on 2 January. Until then, happy happy!
Storytellers
Notoriously cagey about analytics, Netflix has, for the first time, released viewing numbers – for Q1 and Q2 of 2023. There are some unexpected titles, but we’re not surprised that Love is Blind S4 made the top 20, garnering almost 230 million hours of cringe, disbelief and delight.
It’s late; you’re tired. Why not spend a moment admiring an artist practising ikebana, the ancient Japanese art of flower arranging. Just a few minutes are guaranteed to lower your blood pressure. Brb, we’re going to watch Scarlett Johansson awkwardly snip stems in Lost in Translation again.
