Struggling to deliver marketing plans that drive real results? It’s not your budget—it’s these 3 critical gaps holding you back:

• Disconnection. Marketing goals are often disconnected from overarching business priorities, reducing their impact.
  • Solution: Anchor your marketing strategy to the company’s top objectives to ensure campaigns contribute to growth.
• Budget misalignment. Reusing last year’s budgets without reassessment leads to inefficient resource allocation.
  • Solution: Adopt zero-based budgeting to align spending with current goals and maximize ROI.
• Data neglect. When your plan relies on outdated habits instead of insights from recent performance, you’re wasting resources.
  • Solution: Use performance data to guide decisions, ensuring each tactic and campaign is evidence-based.

Jaguar is in its “exuberant modernism” era.

The British automaker plans to go all-electric, with its first new model slated for 2026.

To usher in the next chapter, the brand debuted a new logo with heavy kerning and, perplexingly, two uppercase letters: the “G” and the “U.”

Driving the “completely reimagined” brand identity is a quote from Sir William Lyons, Jaguar founder: “A Jaguar should be a copy of nothing.”

The creative features bold colors, contemporary silhouettes, moody models, and Pop-Art inspired sets.

“This is a reimagining that recaptures the essence of Jaguar, returning it to the values that once made it so loved, but making it relevant for a contemporary audience,” says Gerry McGovern, CCO at Jaguar.

“We are creating Jaguar for the future, restoring its status as a brand that enriches the lives of our clients and the Jaguar community.”
