Martin Sorrell told me the idea of marketers spending their way through this specific crisis as “complete nonsense,” given the existential threats so many companies currently face. “
In all the conversations I have had, [with business leaders], there is no long term now: it’s a total focus on the short term,” he said. “All bets are off.”

Amongst the many articles and analyses are pieces warning advertisers not to “go dark”. Based on data from previous recessions, these argue that firms should maintain or even increase adspend in order to gain market share, and so emerge stronger when all this is over.
There is definitely some truth in this. Indeed, I have made the same argument myself in the past. But I can’t help feeling that we need a more nuanced and thoughtful approach just now. For a start, advice from Adland about “not going dark” is likely to sound self-serving and hollow to a CEO who faces imminent bankruptcy. But more fundamentally, I think there are three reasons why lessons from past recessions may not apply just now.

Bolia is a Danish-owned furniture chain, which was established in the year 2000. It started out as a pure online store, but later came its own stores and retailers. Today, Bolia's designer furniture can be purchased in more than 50 countries.
Bolia, along with its competitors, was hit very hard by the financial crisis back in 2008-09. Both sales and bottom line collapsed. Competitors' response to the situation was higher discounts and lower retail prices. Bolia believed in the value of building a strong brand position as the way to maintain a price premium and thus higher profits and bottom line. They chose to stick to the concept of New Scandinavian Design. And developing it further meant that Bolia and their designer furniture became a way of expressing their own identity. Bolia was popularly positioned as a fashion brand while competitors continued with their now-can-you-get-even-higher-discounts strategy.
On the media side, magazines and newspapers were phased out in the years 2010 to 2016. Communicating in moving images once again proved to be the best way to tell the story that New Scandinavian Design is a way of expressing one's own identity and personality. The media plan ended with TV as the primary media combined with digital media platforms such as display, search and social media. Bolia has experienced progress on all relevant brand parameters in the years 2010 to 2016, and today the brand is associated with both design and quality. And not least quality, which is worth paying more for.
Bolia has seen a price increase after inflation of more than 26 percent in the period from 2010 to 2016. The number of visitors to Bolia.com has more than doubled during the period. The same has happened for Bolia's physical stores.
None of Bolia's competitors have managed to significantly increase sales from 2010 to 2016. During the same period, Bolia experienced sales growth of 256 percent. In addition to gaining market shares, Bolia has also seen the bottom line grow from a minus of DKK 3.5 million in 2010 to EUR 8.9 million euro in 2016.

There are very few upsides for anyone right now. A record number of companies, big and small, find themselves just weeks from insolvency. Employees are being let go in record numbers. And the media is collapsing as advertising dries up and a long, difficult and painful recession lumbers into view.
