Kia ora [firstname],

Happy Friday! A few days have passed since April Fools, but I am still seeing prank campaigns from Tuesday pop up on the myriad of social platforms that I use. It's the one day of the year where brands get a universal opportunity to embrace humour in any shape or form in order to entertain their customers and community. Read my roundup below of the ones that made me smile. In other news, global advertising company WPP has acquired InfoSum, allowing it to offer new marketing solutions utilising first-party data to its clients while Scroll Media announced a partnership with digital advertising platform Azerion.

Happy reading! And if you have news you’d like to share, let us know. Email editor@stoppress.co.nz.

See you next week - mā te wā,

Zahra and the StopPress team.
