Wellness initiatives in the workplace often sound ideal, but what happens when they demand more than businesses can give? In this Campaign Crunch mini-episode, we’re joined by guest Sadie Straw to unpack Joe Wicks’ Movement Hour campaign, which encouraged employers to give staff an extra hour off each day for physical activity. Despite 10,000 companies applying for a personal visit from Wicks, only 600 committed to the pledge. We explore why this well-intentioned campaign struggled to gain traction and whether it asked too much, too soon.Sadie shares her insights on what could have made the campaign stronger, from better timing to a more realistic approach and stronger use of storytelling. She also shares a memorable marketing mistake of her own involving a very awkward email mix-up between two clients with the same name. It’s a candid and insightful conversation about campaign ambition, real-world results, and the small errors that keep us humble. Is your strategy still right for 2026?
