January 2023 Newsletter
Hope your year has started apace, ‘23 is the place to be!
We’ve been quick out of the gates with several high-profile bookings across EU and US. Reviewing last month we see great results being surfaced from Tesco and Domino’s (more on that below). The mood is high and plenty of activity at the various Say It Now offices.
You can now read the white paper on ‘The Evolution of Radio’ we put together in partnership with The Radio Advertising Bureau. It brings together learnings from our interview series we brought to you in ‘22.
We’ve added ‘Actionable TV Ads’ to our product offering and will be making a lot more noise around that channel as the year progresses. Watch this space.
As ever, please reply directly to me should you want to explore how we can work together, we are very approachable.

The campaign wrapped up with fantastic results with 13.76% of people requesting a download link, rising to 26% during the England World Cup games!
