Pride campaigns are everywhere in June. But not all of them land.
Adding a rainbow to your logo isn’t enough. Audiences can spot surface-level support quickly, and it risks doing more harm than good.

So, what does effective Pride marketing actually look like?

In our latest blog, we break down campaigns from brands like Absolut, Levi’s, LEGO, Skittles, and Converse, and show what sets them apart:
-Long-term commitment, not seasonal messaging
-Real investment in LGBTQ+ communities
-Clear, consistent storytelling
-Creative that reflects lived experiences

If you’re planning your summer campaigns this year, make one to be proud of!

From smarter chatbots and hyper-personalisation to AI-powered accessibility and predictive analytics, brands now have more ways than ever to create experiences that feel intuitive and relevant.

In our latest blog, we explore how AI is transforming UX through:

• NLP-powered chatbots
• AI image recognition
• Accessibility features
• Behavioural analytics that predict user needs
• Faster prototyping and UX iteration
• Smarter UX writing and microcopy generation

Companies like Klarna, Sephora, Netflix, and Spotify are already using AI to deliver better experiences, and users now expect that level of personalisation and convenience as standard.

The key takeaway? AI delivers the greatest impact when it enhances human-centred design rather than replacing it.

In this short clip from the DMI podcast, Stuart Larkin shares practical tips to help brands cut through the noise and build real traction on social.

From truly understanding your audience (and creating content for one person, not everyone) to committing to a clear strategy, Stuart explains why consistency beats chasing trends every time.

He also highlights the importance of experimenting without fear, because not every post will land, and that’s part of the process.

And one big shift to watch? TikTok isn’t just entertainment anymore. It's a search engine. Smart brands are already creating content that answers the exact questions their audience is searching for.

If you want to grow on social, it starts with knowing your audience, staying consistent, and being willing to test, learn, and adapt.
