Background & Brief
Rather than following a single brief, this program operated on an ongoing retainer, with monthly and quarterly reviews shaping priorities. I collaborated directly with the agency handling Gillette’s digital channels in Australia.

Challenges
Heavily reliant on manual, inefficient processes
We didn't have direct access to theTime timeframes and budgets
The platforms used at McCrindle had been developed over many years. The combination of CRM, CMS, internal documentation and marketing technology systems did not interact efficiently together and in many cases were not fit for McCrindle’s needs.Differing opinions between teams
McCrindle has a great culture. Often celebrating each others successes. But between teams there were often conflicting opinions on the correct way to head towards common goals.
