Danny Campbell reposted thisDanny Campbell reposted thisWe flew a Scottish Traffic cone First class to Boston Two weeks ago, we left Scotland with a traffic cone doodled by Rob Johnson The cone flew first class with Delta Air Lines Me and Danny Campbell flew coach. When we landed at Boston Logan, a huge crowd (and a duck!) was waiting for us. What came next is hard to put into words. But I'll try. We put a GPS tracker inside the cone and let the world follow us live at bostoncone.com. People flew in from all over America to track us down, take photos with The Boston Cone, and share their stories. Because this was never just about a cone. Inspired by the incredible £1.1m Craig Ferguson raised for SAMH we made the whole mission about raising money and awareness for mental health — getting people to talk openly, and raising money for SAMH in Scotland and Massachusetts Association for Mental Health in Boston. In 6 days: — 100+ media appearances on both sides of the Atlantic: NBC News CNN BBC, Sky News STV Group plc BBC News The New York Times New York Post The Boston Globe, The Guardian The Washington Post and more... — Live on NBC News and Kiss 108 — 25 million+ views across my content, 30k+ new followers, hundreds of DMs — Two sold-out events: 2,500 people at The Anchor (Official Scotland House for the World Cup) and 160 at The Dubliner for our No Scotland, No (after) Party — We gave Mark Sharp & The Bicycle Thieves — Scottish Band currently on tour supporting Lewis Capaldi — 17 hours' notice to fly from the Isle of Lewis to Boston. They made it. They smashed it. — 150+ interviews filmed. Cone-versations about mental health led by Amelia MacKenzie, Scottish Art psychotherapist — Both the Governor, Maura Healey and Michelle Wu, Mayor of Boston both signed the cone — and declared 14th July officially Boston Cone Day 🤯 — The whole stadium at the Boston Red Sox game chanting "No Scotland, No Party" — Every mode of transport imaginable: Harley Davidsons, a Tesla that shot out bubbles, Ferraris, yachts and duck boats — And the number that matters most: over $30,000 raised for SAMH and MAMH None of it happens without the crack team behind the scenes: Danny Campbell, Amelia McKenzie, Shade Grahling, Scott Benjamin Moore Karen Woods, Brian, and the whole MadeBrave team. And our brilliant partners: Meet Boston Story Shop Boston Logan Airport, Mass.gov, Delta Air Lines, Marriott International, Encore Boston Harbor, The Anchor, The Dubliner, View Boston, Cisco, Spur Bar, and more. We set out to gift a Glasgow traffic cone to the people of boston. Somewhere along the way, thousands of people on both sides of the Atlantic started talking openly about mental health. That's the real win. I'm back in Scotland now. I slept for 24 hours straight. If the Boston Cone taught me anything, it's this: it's okay to talk. Check in on your pals and also, if you have an idea the best way to kill it is to ask 10 people if they think its a good one!

Danny Campbell reposted thisDanny Campbell reposted thisThe most surreal two weeks of my life 🤯 And it all started with a traffic cone. A couple of Fridays ago, I placed a cone with the word BOSTON on the Duke of Wellington statue in Glasgow. It went mega viral overnight… picked up by press across Scotland and America. Then things escalated. I asked the Rob Johnson to illustrate a second cone covered in Boston and Scottish icons, and we drove it around Glasgow in the Wee Yin (my wee yellow car) to make a video with Stuart Patrick CBE (who was a great sport!) at Glasgow Chamber of Commerce That video has hit 1.2 MILLION+ views and over 100k likes and 25k shares. Which is wild engagement. Since then, Danny Campbell and I have been in a full-blown content frenzy, content creators and celebrities jumping in the car, all while I boarded a plane to Turkey halfway through for a family holiday. I’m now co-ordinating a viral traffic cone from a sunbed and managing it all in three time zones which is a totally new life experience. And now? We’ve just had some genuinely insane calls from across the pond. We’re in talks with major brands and some very exciting, very important offices in Boston. 😉 All that to say: if you think the Scotland story in Boston is over, it most definitely is not. This love story is about to take a very exciting U-turn… I’m so buried in cone admin that I’m struggling to keep LinkedIn updated, so if you want to follow along in real time, come over to my Instagram or Facebook (link in comments 👇) Now with over 10 million+ views in the last few days, and the story unfolds there daily. Scotland ❤️ Boston

Danny Campbell reposted thisDanny Campbell reposted this📽️ 2026 PITCH FINAL VIDEO! We’re excited to share highlights from an incredible night celebrating some of Scotland’s brightest young entrepreneurial talent. In March, the worlds of schools and startups came together as pupils from across Greater Glasgow pitched their early-stage ideas to a panel of expert judges. The feedback captured on camera - from teachers, mentors, ecosystem leaders, and above all the participants themselves - shows the huge impact of the programme: crucial skills developed, mindsets shifted, and belief built. That impact is why we’re scaling START even further in the 2026/27 academic year, expanding across Scotland with regional competitions, developing an international school programme, and opening doors for even more young people. If you’d like to get involved next session, as a school, mentor, or partner, please get in touch. For now, a huge thank you to everyone who made this year’s programme such a success!

Danny Campbell reposted thisDanny Campbell reposted thisSo incredibly proud to share some groundbreaking work (and RESULTS) from our team at Wayfair UK! We recently partnered with Channel 4 to launch Filtered Interiors, a brand-new Youtube-first 6-part vodcast series. Hosted by the brilliant Vogue Williams and Danny Campbell, the show challenged them to dive into the psychology of spaces and design competing room transformations for celebrity guests, using exclusively wayfair.co.uk products. Our goal was to go beyond our catalog and build deep emotional relevance and brand consideration. To say it resonated would be an understatement! The campaign completely smashed our benchmarks, driving massive reach (21M+ views), viewing rates that 2x the benchmark and incredible brand lift (+34% in consideration and 68% unprompted brand recognition). Congratulations to the team at Wayfair UK, Spirit Studios, WPP Media and Channel 4 who made this happen in such a powerful way. We made a show! 🎬 Available in Youtube and Channel 4 streaming. Check out the sizzle reel below to see how we brought the Wayfair UK brand to life in a totally new format. 👇

Danny Campbell shared thisI recently had the joy of working with Andrew, who has that rare ability to take photos of you without it feeling like a photoshoot. Grateful for the time, the energy, the chat, the humour and the eye behind the lens. If you’re thinking about getting headshots done, Andrew Jackson is the guy. #photographer #headshots #photography #commercialphotography

Danny Campbell reposted thisDanny Campbell reposted thisSupported by The Social Hub (B Corp™) and hosted at SWG3's Yardworks, 'Kids Make Glasgow' brought together 20 brilliant young minds from Castleton Primary School, Sunnyside Primary School, St Patrick’s Primary School, and Pirie Park Primary School to help reimagine the future of Glasgow’s Met Tower. The day was led by our Andrew Dobbie, BBC Scotland’s Home of the Year host and HOKO Founder Danny Campbell, and SWG3’s Laura Frood. Artists Colin Davidson (aka Conzo Throb), Agata Pietrusz, Rob Johnson, and Jonny Mowat helped each of the kids develop their ideas, illustrate their characters, spray paint them on walls, and even animate them! QUICKBLOCK® also helped bring the children’s ideas to life with a hands-on miniature Met Tower build. What a day! Want to see what else we got up to?

Danny Campbell liked thisWhen Meag and I launched the business in September 2025 we had a clear vision of what we wanted to deliver and where we wanted to sit in the market. It’s great to see this taking shape one year in. Thank you to every landlord, tenant and business partner who has put their trust in us throughout the year. 🏰🏴Danny Campbell liked thisWhen Pickard Property was founded a year ago, there was a clear vision of what the business wanted to build, who it wanted to work with and, importantly, the team and culture it wanted to create. One year on, Pickard Property is now a team of five and has added 190 properties to its managed portfolio, with a strong pipeline of new landlords and properties joining over the coming months. A heartfelt thank you to every landlord who has trusted us with their property, every tenant who has trusted us to find their new home and to all of our business partners for their referrals and continued support. It continues to be a privilege to manage Edinburgh’s most sought after homes.

Danny Campbell liked thisDanny Campbell liked thisProperty investment is a numbers game. 🏡 ROI, yields, the guide price... All are super important to know and understand. But none of it actually feels relevant to 'the why'. ✨ Like most folk, my 'why' for everything is freedom. (clearly a freelance background 👀) Freedom looks different for everyone, but it's rarely a spreadsheet. If you're thinking about building freedom through investing in property, drop me a message. 📩 We help plenty of people start or scale a portfolio at RPS every day; maybe it could be you. 🤷🏼♀️ - Liv x REAL Property Scotland #PropertyInvestment #RealPropertyScotland #Freedom #Invest

Danny Campbell liked thisDanny Campbell liked thisAnd just like that… the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games have come to an end 🏅⭐️ It’s been amazing to see the impact the Games have had on Glasgow and experience so many of the events surrounding them. I’ve been lucky enough to witness the Games from so many different perspectives and I’ve loved every moment of it. From the Opening Ceremony, watching world-class athletes compete, to attending the Civic Reception and celebrating it all at the Closing Ceremony. It was such a great experience getting to watch other creatives like Mercy Abel, Bemz and Zander Murray in action, presenting and bringing the best atmosphere. It’s also great seeing many countries united through sport. Sport was such a huge part of my life growing up, so watching some sports I’ve always loved has been really inspiring (and definitely encouraged me to get back in the gym 🫣). Congratulations and well done to every athlete, volunteer, organiser and everyone who helped make Glasgow 2026 such a memorable event! #ContentCreator #CommonwealthGames #Glasgow2026 #Sport #Events

Danny Campbell liked thisDanny Campbell liked thisOver the past year, I’ve had the opportunity to create content for global brands, cover live events, manage influencer partnerships and help tell stories that connect with audiences. These experiences have reinforced my belief of not just making good quality content but also being able to add value and build trust with your audience. Bringing stories to life through content is what I’m really passionate about, so I’m happy to share that I’ve now started a new role as a Social Media and Content Manager at Dechomai Ltd, where I do just that! 🕺🏾🥳 First day in, and it was amazing getting all the coverage from The First Minister of Scotland’s Start Up Challenge Hackathon and evening reception. It’s such a great initiative for young people and it was really inspiring to speak with the aspiring entrepreneurs and the First Minister. Additionally, I’m also looking to work with brands, businesses and founders who value authentic storytelling and want to create content that genuinely connects with their audience. 👥📸 Whether it’s event coverage, social-first videos, creator partnerships or helping bring your brand to life online, I’d love to collaborate for freelance opportunities.
