Seems Wesley's view is that AI and human ineraction within the chains of workflow will result in revenue being received more in the future by measuring output and outcome in the future rather than billable hours of say a Creative or Copy writer.
I'm assuming this means rather than traditional payment in 3rds ( 1 third up front, 1 third, during production and 1 third on sign off) it will be more heavily weighted to the end products and measured success. I guess this may have some impact on forecasting particularly with enforced AI learning he mentioned where work rejected by human intervention gets thrown back into the flow for re work.

Thank you for responding.
As you say part of the problem is nothing has a date stamp. I frequently look at AKQA (WPP) as I worked with them at Microsoft. They were one of the first, if not the first, all digital or new media agencies, so for me they are a benchmark on the type of work out there. But again nothing dated. I guess I'll wait for the next update.
Thanks
I regularly look on Media Monks website (work inventory) as that is there shop window and best I can on industry sites without subscription. But have not seen anything new for a long time. Just wondered if anyone had access to better info. Pitch invites, pitches won, new Whoppers. I know its dire out there at the moment but find it difficult to believe they haven't won anything globally.

Mortgage rates are reducing, oil and utilities are reducing, shopping is reducing. More disposable income should be available this year. Therefore is it now tme to kick start marketing advertising.
Every day I hear calls of how under valued SFOR is, links.to industry awards, white paper articles that imply they (Media Monks) are leading the way in Digital and AI, SMS in interviews explaining the market conditions and trying desperately to provide reassurance that the strategy of Digital First is right But the share price drops day after day with little to no respite and by massive percentages compared to the competition.
I just don't understand it. We know the accounts were late which triggered a scare and sell off, followed by a number of disastrous forecasts and therefore a need to downgrade targets and margins. But surely this must be under control by now . The BoD are not wet behind the ears. Companies must be sitting on millions of unspent marketing funds.
Why isn't the market buying into SFOR right now, today, ready for the rally.

Excuse my ignorance I am not familiar with delisting at all.
1. I'm guessing that they have no legal obligation to offer above the existing SP on the day. And that anything above it would be for reputation and give some comfort to new shareholders that if they pulled the rug again after a re float it would be fair and reasonable offer . But that's all.
2. I have not sold either and am currently £55k under water investing £85k in all. Mostly because I kept topping up as it went down from 240 pence last February thinking it had hit the bottom each time. How would I object, would I have sufficient voting rights. No one asked me when 888 and Entain were made offers. So not sure what leverage I would have.
3. I need 145p just to break even. Whilst you say below 120-130 would be deemed ethically a robbery what can I do about it as ref point 2.
1. What would be preventing them from dual listing and then pulling out of London?
2. Would II's have to sell up the shares they are holding same as retail?
3. Why would they want to offer any more than the current market SP?
SMS said in an interview when asked about losing Mondelez. They hadn't lost the business entirely. And that they (Mondelez) had a new Marketing head who made changes and that happens in business.
I guess it could be a combination of people bring in old mates, return favours, new broom. Not necessarily they were unhappy.
