Parenting isn’t easy, and when it comes down to motherhood there’s not such a thing as being the “perfect” mother. Specially when they are new to this experience, it is hard for them to relay on unsolicited advice or following unrealistic depictions of perfect motherhood on social media.

Anyone who buys a car in Germany has many manufacturers in their relevant set; except for Citroën. No wonder that the brand awareness of the brand was at rock bottom.For Citroën's 100th birthday it was time to change something – so we changed the name: Citroën became Zitrön.

Since then Justdiggit has been visible online, out of home and on German TV and showcasing solutions for one of the most critical topics of our time: climate change.
"Forever Lasting Moments" creates an awareness of the long-term effects of disposable plastics. We show iconographic, historical events and their duration – such as the UN Climate Conference 2016 with agreements that lasted only two years (in contrast to the plastic bottles used there).
Crazy ideas are often the best. For the TV and online campaign, we were inspired by unusual purchase decisions: “Crazy? Only if you don’t pay with PayPal. ”Otherwise, we did a great job and worked with an extensive OoH campaign, special placements and social media.
For "Repicturing Homeless" we turned homeless street vendors of the local fiftyfifty magazine into stock photo models of popular motifs.

During the last FIFA World Cup, German people struggled to combine their two major dedications: football and work. Because with the World Cup taking place in Russian time zones, play times clashed with German working hours. We at Havas Germany found a way to bring work and football together.

Once it’s connected to a mobile via Bluetooth, people can bite on the narrow end of the pen and – thanks to bone conduction technology – enjoy a private broadcast nobody else can hear.
