Millennials are replacing Gen Xers as the coveted audience for insurance. However, research reveals that many millennials are confused by insurance and how it works. To educate this key audience Travelers created the “Smart Takes” social media campaign.
To launch Theraflu’s new PowerPods line and move cold & flu relief from the bathroom medicine cabinet to the kitchen counter—we created a series of videos. We created our very own influencer, Kate, a wife with her own online cooking show called “The Convenient Kitchen”. Kate, humorously covered a different pod-related topic in each video: Symptoms, How To, and Nighttime. It was all part of the “Sick Differently” digital platform which combined homeopathic remedies, healthy recipes, and influencer articles from doctors.
Many businesses are blindsided by cyber attacks because they don’t protect themselves.

When Sharp showed us their new 90” LED TV—the largest in the world at the time—the action was so intense it gave us vertigo. It also gave us our idea: TV like this isn’t for the faint of heart. (Nor was the $10,000 price tag.) Crank the sound and brace yourself—this spot is a wild ride.

Gen Z’ers want to be out there among their peers, especially on social media. That’s why the appearance of a cold sore can create serious panic. “It Came from Within” is a social media-driven campaign designed to target Gen Z’ers where they spend a great deal of time—on social media with their peers. The campaign uses the over-the-top style and tone of B-horror films to position cold sores as monsters that can attack your social life. At the same time, it’s building awareness about the fast, effective cold sore relief of Abreva. Mock horror movie posters announcing short :15 and :30 second online “horror films” are posted on Instagram and YouTube, while in-school guerrilla tactics provide support offline. The tagline, “Stay calm, carry Abreva” empowers users to fight back.
The Marriott Rewards Card wanted to move from a "destination" strategy to an "experiences" strategy, which would resonate more fully with millennials, who view hotels as a base for larger experiences.

It was designed to drive acquisition, incentivize current cardmembers to use their Annual Free Night Stay, and re-position the brand in the minds of millennials.

Nearly thirty employee interviews and a two-day photo shoot later, the “Paths” employee recruitment campaign was born. A stylized path design let us share the employee’s unique career paths across web, mobile, social, print, video and OOH.
