“I had the pleasure of working with Agathe on the Guardian business for just over a year. Passionate, creative, principled, empathetic and incisive, Agathe brings a fantastic blend of skills to any team and task. I particularly admire her fighting spirit and conviction, which is always delivered with elegant precision and sensitivity. A brilliant business partner, mentor and counsel, Agathe is a delight to work with.”

If creativity is a muscle, shouldn't we exercize it more than once a year?
WARC
Super Bowl is US advertising’s biggest event, but it shouldn’t become the only event. BBH LA’s Agathe Guerrier looks back at this year’s crop of ads and wonders whether keeping creative excellence, big ideas and big budgets, for just one moment in the year has led to advertising not practicing those qualities more often. Here’s why every brief should be a World Cup final.

Quibi advertiser strategy
- Present
We helped Meg Whitman and Jeffrey Katzenberg's Quibi achieve their pre-launch advertiser investment goal of $100m (and counting), by developing their strategy for the monetization of the platform. Blending media, innovation and partnership, our approach was to focus on a small number of exclusive brand sponsors and partner closely with them to develop the future of mobile storytelling - across IP and advertising.

Axe Peace
Axe Peace was a cross category product launch and the main global campaign of ‘14 for Axe. We led both the product and communications development. Axe Peace delivered on average 9% more sales than the previous year’s innovation, and won a Silver Global Effie.

Guardian Own the Weekend
Our on-going ‘Own the weekend’ campaign has genuinely turned around the fortunes of a category everyone considered as dying. It has grown yoy circulation of both the Saturday Guardian and the Observer for the first time after 6 years of decline, and sticking to a single creative platform through time allowed us to test, learn and multiply its commercial performance by 10 from the 1st to the 5th iteration (I haven’t made this up).

Kronenbourg Slow the Pace
Our 'Slow the Pace' campaign for Kronenbourg had an immediate impact on brand equity, taking us from 5th to 2nd favourite premium lager amongst the target audience in only 3 months. It also convinced Tesco to relist Kronenbourg after 12 months off the shelves, leading to a rapid uplift in sales.

Canal+ / Relaunch of Cinema Proposition
In 2007 we were faced with the challenge to articulate Canal+'s unique cinema proposition in a way that would feel relevant in a new media landscape where time exclusivity had stopped being a differentiator. This campaign focused on the editorial point of view of Canal+ as curator and led the way to a profound re-energization of the brand. It also won a Gold Cannes Lion for Film in 2008.
