Creative Strategy 

Creative Strategy and Campaign Development in the UK

At Double W, creative strategy comes first. We develop campaign ideas that are engineered for the channels where they must perform, then we deliver across TV and CTV, radio and podcasts, print, OOH and DOOH, and paid digital. Strategy, production, and media planning and buying sit under one roof so every asset is shaped for the placement, the audience, and the objective.

We pair senior creative thinking with the technical realities of each medium. Formats, durations, aspect ratios, accessibility guidelines, and performance models are baked in from the start. For digital activation we focus on paid search and paid social, supported by our Ad Stack Pro infrastructure so campaigns generate data that improves future work.

How We Work

  • Discovery and insight
    Category audit, message map, audience and channel analysis, creative territories, risk and opportunity review.

  • Campaign architecture
    A modular framework that keeps one idea coherent across formats while allowing platform-specific executions. We can write unique scripts for each placement while maintaining continuity of cast, set, and narrative where required.

  • Channel planning with media
    Creative and media are planned together. Flighting, reach and frequency, audience definitions, and budget models inform asset lists and versioning.

  • Ad Stack Pro foundation for digital
    Tracking, pixels, SDKs, consent and tagging plans, event schemas, and testing protocols so every impression creates a usable signal.

  • Test and learn plan
    Clear hypotheses, variant lists, and roll-out rules tied to commercial KPIs.

Channel-Ready Creative

TV and Connected TV Creative

Concept development, scriptwriting, storyboards, casting, production, and cut-downs built for broadcaster specs and streaming platforms. We plan durations, opening hooks, and mnemonic moments for recall and performance. Integrated with media to match daypart, programme context, and audience reach goals.

Radio and Podcast Creative

Ideas that land in audio first. We write and produce spots for national and regional radio and host-read or spot formats in podcasts. Scripts are tailored for frequency, sonic branding, and response mechanics.

OOH and DOOH Creative

High-impact static and motion assets for roadside, rail, and retail environments. We design for dwell time, sightlines, copy count, animation pacing, and CMS constraints on large digital networks. Versioning supports location, audience, or time of day.

Print Creative

Newspaper, magazine, and insert concepts with strong hierarchy and clear callouts. We supply press-ready files, manage colour profiles, and align placements with the media plan for contextual relevance.

Paid Social Creative

Platform-native creative for Meta, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, and X. We consider format, hook timing, captioning, safe zones, and watch behaviour by placement. Variants are mapped to funnel stage and audience intent, with dynamic creative where useful.

Paid Search Creative

Message maps, keyword to copy alignment, extensions, and structured snippets. We pair ad copy with landing page recommendations and testing plans that prioritise commercial outcomes.

Online Video and YouTube

Six-second bumpers, skippable and non-skippable edits, and mid-form storytelling with strong first-frame cues. We plan cut-downs from master edits so the system stays coherent across the funnel.

Full-Funnel by Design

  • Awareness
    Distinctive brand assets, mnemonic lines, and attention strategy to create mental availability.

  • Consideration
    Explanation and proof points tailored to placement. Creative that moves people to the next step.

  • Conversion
    Offer framing, objection handling, and response design aligned to the media and measurement plan.

Measurement and Iteration

We define KPIs with media before production starts. For digital, Ad Stack Pro ensures events, audiences, and experiments are captured correctly. For TV, radio, print, and OOH, we align creative with the media model and read impact through brand lift studies, matched-market tests, or econometrics where appropriate. Creative is updated in planned refresh cycles, not ad hoc.
