Amaliah consulted on the repitch with FCB for THIS GIRL CAN. The next part of the work needed to ensure they were able to target demographics that are not as active, for example women from low income and BAME communities. Amaliah consulted FCB on the campaign strategy and messaging to demonstrate how the momentum of the TGC campaign can be built upon, leading to FCB winning the repitch.

Christmas Consultancy

A B2C beverage global beverage company wanted to understand how to reach our audiences beyond tokenistic casting in ads and representation at face value during one of their biggest calendar moments; Christmas.

We ran surveys, polls and focus groups with 1000 participants from Amaliah to understand attitudes towards advertising, media, representation and Christmas. From these headline stats and insights we developed creative and strategic frameworks for the brand.

Universal

The James Bond franchise was set to return to screen in 2020. Universal wanted to understand how they could engage with Amaliah's, gal-dem's and Guap's audience as not doing so was leaving 50 million off the box office numbers.

We worked with the Universal team to:

• Develop a cohesive comms strategy

• Critique and develop social assets and ideas for launch

• Develop creative online and offline activations

• Recommend talent that could authentically engage with our audiences.
