He has led some of the most iconic brands in the world, such as Netflix, Guinness, Uber, Samsung and Dove, where his back-to-back “Toxic Influence” and “Cost of Beauty” campaigns both became the most shared and most awarded in the brand’s history. This catapulted Dove to 2nd at the Cannes Lions Brand of the Year rankings, and Unilever as coveted Creative Marketer of the Year. He has led Ogilvy Canada to their most awarded year in the agency’s 64-year history, doing the best work on their biggest brands. He has helped spur a 75% conversion rate on new business, winning the H&R Block, Go Train, Up Express, Clif Bar, Mitsubishi, Young Drivers and Samsung Global accounts.

05 Mar 2025 | When to stop explaining and start selling [w/ Meghan Kraemer & Cameron Stark] | 01:11:52 | |
Launch your own agency with blood, sweat, and pee. Meghan and Cameron reveal how they built Hard Work Club with Post It notes and a dream. Plus, they unpack work for Knix and Doordash. Meghan Kraemer - Co-founder, Executive Creative Director As a woman and mother, Meghan is unlike 98% of creative agency owners. An advocate for women in the industry, she is a champion for equality, authenticity and smashing through the sea-of-sameness. As Executive Creative Director of HWC, she brings a considered, artistic and deeply human approach to each piece of work the club creates. When she’s not swinging for the fences, she’s reheating cups of coffee as she chases after her two young daughters, Norah and Maeve. Cameron Stark - Co-founder, Head of Strategy For the last fifteen years, Cam has stewarded brands to break through the clutter and advocated for the value of smart, distinctive, creative thinking. He brings an anthropological approach and deep curiosity to every brief, and is passionate about unlocking a brand’s greater purpose. He also dabbles in homemade hot sauce he gives as gifts (but still try to act surprised when you unwrap it).
