OMG agencies PHD and OMD Leverage Agency as a Platform Model to Earn #1 and #2 Ranking Among Global Media Networks

NEW YORK, Sept. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Omnicom Media Group (OMG), the media services division of Omnicom (NYSE: OMC) and parent company to the OMD, PHD and Hearts & Science global media agency networks, had the best total new business record (wins minus losses, including retentions) among global media management groups for the first half of 2024.

Omnicom Media Group had the best H1  total new business performance among global media networks.

As reported in the Global Media Agency New Business Barometer H1 2024 – an analysis of the global media agency marketplace published today by independent research company COMvergence – OMG was awarded more than $5.3 billion in client billings during the first six months of the year.

Powered by its industry-leading Agency as a Platform model that enables a flexible ecosystem of talent, capabilities, and technology across all OMG agencies, OMG won 35% of the $16.4 billion in business awarded in H1 – a percentage that is equal to the shares of the second and third ranked media groups combined. Additionally, OMG had the highest retention rate as it successfully defended 89% of billings in play.

Commenting on the results, OMG CEO Florian Adamski said, “In H1, OMG significantly  outperformed the industry  by leveraging  our Agency as Platform approach — built for organizational agility and flexibility and powered by Omnicom’s industry-leading Omni operating platform — to deliver customized solutions that integrate the vast collection of specialized talent, capabilities, and processes required to meet the scope and scale of our clients’ need in an increasingly complex marketplace.”

Beyond topping the global ranking, OMG was also #1 across every region, and in the top three largest advertising markets – US, China, and UK – as well is in France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, New Zealand, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, and Turkey.

PHD and OMD Top the Agency Network Rankings
OMG’s best-in-class H1 total new business ranking was fueled by powerful performances from its agency networks, with all its agency brands ranked in the top 10 – and two claiming the top spots on the ranking.

PHD topped the global and all four regional agency rankings by successfully defending the $2.1b Volkswagen Group business – the biggest pitch awarded in H1 – as well as Sainsbury’s and HP; while also adding Priceline and David Yurman to its client roster and expanding its relationship with QSR giant Restaurant Brand’s International, for which it supports Burger King, Popeye’s, and Tim Horton, to include the Firehouse Subs franchise.

“In a marketplace where media sits at the center of digital transformation, connected commerce, content and creators, clients are looking for an agency that can deliver integrated, outcomes-centric solutions that can meet this broad spectrum of needs,” said PHD CEO Guy Marks. “Our performance in H1 is the result of clients recognizing that PHD – a media agency engineered for connected intelligence and enabled by the breadth and depth of OMG and Omnicom – will consistently deliver on this mandate to help them outthink, outperform and outgrow the marketplace.”

Earning second place on the global ranking with wins that included Gap Inc. and Michelin, OMD was also the #1 agency network in North America for net new business (wins minus losses, excluding retentions).  Joining OMD at the top of the North America net new ranking, sister agency Hearts & Science – with H1 wins that included Tapestry, HanesBrands Inc. and Lovesac – placed third.

Winning on All Fronts in H1
In addition to outperforming the market in new business, OMG also lead the industry on multiple fronts during the first six months of the year, starting at CES where the group announced first-to-market partnerships with Google, TikTok, Amazon and Meta designed to bridge the gap between creators and commerce, driving better ROI across influencer channels.

During the Cannes Festival of Creativity, OMG announced partnerships with Amazon, The Trade Desk, TikTok and Instacart designed to directly connect upper funnel media investments to sales. OMG was also the most honored media group at the festival, earning the highest combined total of Lions and short list placements; and OMD was named Media Network of the Year, with PHD coming in a close second.  

Also, in H1, when the annual Effie Index ranking the world’s most effective agencies, marketers, brands, networks, and holding companies was published in June, OMG earned the highest score among global media groups.

Sustaining New Business Momentum in H2
In September, the global media group that had won the biggest decision of H1 was awarded the lion’s share of the biggest pitch of 2024 to-date when Amazon – the largest advertiser in both the US and worldwide – named OMG its media agency of record for the Americas.  

As of this writing and based on the most recent numbers reported in the COMvergence dashboards that provide a moment-in-time snapshot of the new business landscape, OMG continues to hold the best YTD total new business record among the Big Six global media groups ($6.4 billion). The COMvergence provisional reporting also shows OMG agencies PHD and OMD maintaining their respective #1 and #2 ranking atop the agency network dashboards.
