Why we’re joining forces with LONDON Advertising and Pimento to offer reduced fees for new clients in January.

As the reality of lockdown 3.0 sets in, and with conversations already taking place about it being extended ‘til Easter, it can be all too easy to feel gloomy about 2021. Wasn’t it meant to be ‘better’ than 2020?

The sense of unease amongst individuals and businesses is all too understandable. But with vaccines being rolled out, ‘better’ is coming – and in the meantime we as a nation we must strive to come out of January with an energy and optimism to see us through the coming months.

In a year of lockdown and decreased interaction, communication has proven itself to be a lifeline for many. Relationships between many brands and their consumers have been cemented or shattered in a tense landscape.

Over the next few months, we will see more brands examining their positioning and their purpose, the changes they want to make happen, and how this fits into a post-Covid world. With a collective sense that there are lessons to be learnt from the pandemic – both positive and negative – this time of introspection is critical, and will lay the groundwork for more meaningful comms going forward.

At Stand, we know that brands who believe in creating positive change and finding a better way to do things play an important role in society. As we gradually emerge from the Covid-19 pandemic, it’s vital that these brands have the right support to revive and ultimately thrive. Not only will this help to futureproof our economy, but it will provide consumers with the reassurance, information and confidence they need to navigate their mental health, lifestyle, finances, family lives, education and careers in a new landscape.

That’s why we’ve joined forces with Pimento and LONDON Advertising, and over 30 specialist comms agencies, to back the pioneering “Save 2021 Sale”. For any new clients who partner with us in January or February for at least three months, we’re offering our specialist services at a 33% fee reduction.

We believe in a better landscape for consumers and businesses, and we want to help get Britain and its brands back on its feet.
