67%want brands to keep them informed
on how they’re supporting
employees and the broader team.
@DS_Strategic
75%named a brand they
love more because
of their response
to the crisis
“The company I work for
(Starbucks) continually updating
and evolving to give most
support as possible to workers
and communities at this time.”
— 22-year-old, Florida
“Starbucks extended it’s mental
health benefits. This is a great
positive role during this
pandemic because they are one
of the most well known
companies in the US and the fact
that they are taking part to help
the community really shows
something.”
— 14-year-old, California
I stopped buying from Whole Foods recently...when Bezos cut
health care coverage for part time workers. It’s absolutely
unacceptable that hundreds maybe thousands of workers will
have their health benefits eliminated when they are the ones in
most need of the financial help.

BRAND ACTIVISM
KATE LEVINE, DIRECTOR OF KATE LEVINE CONSULTING,
FORMER GLOBAL DIRECTOR OF ACTIVISM & COMMUNICATIONS, THE BODY SHOP
CAMPAIGNING
WHAT DO YOU STAND FOR?
WHAT & WHY:
HOW TO DO IT
Activism is about action, not just
words. It seeks to make real, long-
lasting change. What is it that you can
make better in the world – are you
looking to make legislative change as
well as behavioural change? 
WHAT & WHY: HOW TO DO IT
1. Before you choose to speak out,
clearly establish what you stand for.
2. Then look at what real change
you want to make.
3. Make sure the two are
connected! How does this cause
align to your purpose…and also to
your company’s practices?
4. Also consider: what can your
company bring to the table to
support this cause?
PARTNERSHIPS:
WHO CAN HELP
Achieving real change
will be difficult – maybe
impossible – on your
own. You’ll need a deep
understanding of the
cause for which you are
campaigning. So it’s
likely you’ll need outside
expertise.
Lots of activist brands work
with NGOs & campaigning
organisations, big and
small. You can work with
individual activists and/or
influencers or bring a group
together. Some brands
even collaborate with other
brands.
PARTNERSHIPS
Webinar: Finally, Brand Activism Is Driving More Meaningful Engagement!
PARTNERSHIPS: HOW TO DO IT
1. Read up on the issue – who’s involved?
2. Will you work with one partner or more? How?
3. Do your research. Are you inspired by the work of the
organisations you have shortlisted? Any
controversies?
4. Be clear on mutual expectations
5. Not everything will be a financial transaction. Be
creative with how you involve each other.
6. Try to think beyond basic philanthropy to how you
can make change and involve your audiences too
PREPARE FOR DISCOMFORT:
IT WILL COME
If you are serious about making change,
understand that it will not always be
comfortable.
Change is uncomfortable.
Prepare for the other point of view. It
might come in the form of a backlash,
some might even shout ‘boycott’… but if
you want to be an activist and make
change, then there will be those who
oppose you.
PREPARE: HOW TO DO IT
1. Start from the inside out. Scrutinise your own
policies.
2. Communicate internally first and engage your
colleagues.
3. Run (at least one) crisis-planning session with all
relevant teams.
4. Look after those on the front line.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Be positive and inspiring in your activism
communications – you’ll get greater
engagement and mobilization.
Start from the inside: scrutinise your policies,
commit to change if you need to, engage your
colleagues.
You don’t need to be perfect to start; but you do
need to be transparent about where you are in
your journey. Know your flaws and communicate
what you’re doing about them.
Activism is not just a social media post; it’s
sustained action… Really commit to making
change.
My passionate belief is that business can be fun, it can be
conducted with love and a powerful force for good.

  • 62. WHAT DO YOU STAND FOR?
  • 63. WHAT & WHY: HOW TO DO IT
  • 64. Activism is about action, not just words. It seeks to make real, long- lasting change. What is it that you can make better in the world – are you looking to make legislative change as well as behavioural change? 
  • 65. WHAT & WHY: HOW TO DO IT 1. Before you choose to speak out, clearly establish what you stand for. 2. Then look at what real change you want to make. 3. Make sure the two are connected! How does this cause align to your purpose…and also to your company’s practices? 4. Also consider: what can your company bring to the table to support this cause?
  • 67. Achieving real change will be difficult – maybe impossible – on your own. You’ll need a deep understanding of the cause for which you are campaigning. So it’s likely you’ll need outside expertise. Lots of activist brands work with NGOs & campaigning organisations, big and small. You can work with individual activists and/or influencers or bring a group together. Some brands even collaborate with other brands. PARTNERSHIPS
  • 69. PARTNERSHIPS: HOW TO DO IT 1. Read up on the issue – who’s involved? 2. Will you work with one partner or more? How? 3. Do your research. Are you inspired by the work of the organisations you have shortlisted? Any controversies? 4. Be clear on mutual expectations 5. Not everything will be a financial transaction. Be creative with how you involve each other. 6. Try to think beyond basic philanthropy to how you can make change and involve your audiences too
  • 71. If you are serious about making change, understand that it will not always be comfortable. Change is uncomfortable. Prepare for the other point of view. It might come in the form of a backlash, some might even shout ‘boycott’… but if you want to be an activist and make change, then there will be those who oppose you.
  • 72. PREPARE: HOW TO DO IT 1. Start from the inside out. Scrutinise your own policies. 2. Communicate internally first and engage your colleagues. 3. Run (at least one) crisis-planning session with all relevant teams. 4. Look after those on the front line.
  • 73. KEY TAKEAWAYS Be positive and inspiring in your activism communications – you’ll get greater engagement and mobilization. Start from the inside: scrutinise your policies, commit to change if you need to, engage your colleagues. You don’t need to be perfect to start; but you do need to be transparent about where you are in your journey. Know your flaws and communicate what you’re doing about them. Activism is not just a social media post; it’s sustained action… Really commit to making change.
