I think people ought to know that we’re anti-fascist,
we’re anti-violence, we’re anti-racist, and we’re pro-creative.
We’re against ignorance.

Editor's Notes

  • #14 \
  • #23 Animate the sentences to appear with a click. So What conversation do you want to own? Goes first and What is the #1 appears second upon click. TEXT in the style of: https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=punk+rock+UK&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj-mLaY0ITNAhUEIMAKHWOIDyYQ_AUIBygB&biw=1092&bih=589#tbm=isch&q=anarchy+in+the+UK&imgrc=GggkddxIFQf2MM%3A
  • #39 Using Direct Sponsored Content, we A/B tested ‘eBook’ versus ‘guide’ to see which resonated better with our audience. ‘Guide’ saw a 100% increase in click through rate (CTR). Knowing that quotes and stats both work well, we tested an image featuring a statistic versus an image featuring a quote. The image with the quote saw a 30% lift in CTR versus the stat image. With a hypothesis that people like images of people rather than objects, we tested an image versus a human and the human saw +160% CTR and +290% CVR.
