Neck and Neck

Pizza Lazza We discovered a hidden Instagram DM mechanic: when a message contains a single emoji, tapping it launches a mini-game. No brand had used it before. Our admin started playing with the “pizza emoji” and set a record that’s hard to beat. With a sponsored social post, we invited gamers to DM us a pizza emoji, tap it to start the game, and win a Gamer Pizza Menu if they topped our score. The rest is in the video…

realme Melissa Vargas and Mete Gazoz, two of the best in the world in their disciplines, became realme’s new brand ambassadors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q/01
What kinds of services do you provide?
expand_more

We provide integrated communications. We manage a brand’s above-the-line, digital and social-media visibility end-to-end — strategically and creatively. The richest areas in our portfolio include TV and radio campaigns, digital projects, social-media content production, website builds and corporate identity design. We typically work with clients on a monthly retainer under contracts of at least one year.

Q/02
Can we work with you on a project basis?
expand_more

Absolutely — we do work with some brands on a project basis. We’re open to project work as long as it doesn’t conflict with an existing client’s exclusivity clause. That said, we never take part in pitches for project-based work.

Q/03
Do you handle production in-house?
expand_more

We are an advertising agency that finds creative ideas and produces compelling stories — not a production house. On every project, we collect quotes from several production companies to secure the best service and highest quality within our clients’ budgets, and we make the final call together with our clients.

Q/04
Do you participate in pitches?
expand_more

We participate in pitches when commercial terms are mutually agreed upfront. For our take on pitches, we recommend reading agency chair Cenk Gümüşcüoğlu’s column in Marketing Türkiye.
