Advertisers Watching Ads is a regular video series where brands watch other brands’ ads and discuss their merits. The purpose of the show is to give the industry insight into how brands think about other brands - and what inspiration they take from their peers. We are proud to have Contagious as our partner, choosing ads each week.
