    How viral humour boosted one of Nordics’ leading travel brands

    Humour has been a business-boosting solution for Denmark’s Spies, with a series of ads addressing such varied topics as the country’s low birth rate and the reluctance of pet owners to go on holiday.

    They explain why they have developed a consistent tone for Dogcation, Do It for Denmark and Do it for Mum and how this approach has been particularly effective for the business.
    Joining them is Vera Sidlova, Global Creative Thought Leadership Director at Kantar, who outlines how humour is captured by Kantar’s LINK+ ad testing solution.
