We created their 1st ever integrated social campaign (online/offline) #GiveWhatFireTakes, which changed the focus from donating dollars to the tangible items donators will be helping to provide fire victims. This initiative ignited a national movement and delivered unprecedented results.

With a shifting economy and increased speed of business it was obvious that small businesses needed to know how telecom services could be applied to their business NOW. With that in mind, we developed digital assets and a social media campaign that provided real-time answers to their questions. Through Twitter, Facebook and online videos, social engagement with the brand set records for both followers and engagement levels.

Wanting to grow even further, they began looking to define and mature their brand in a way that would position them as a leader. They then partnered with us to create an effective brand positioning strategy, which included the creation of a new website, plus compelling content that could be successfully leveraged by their sales teams. Once this was all firmly in place, their business continued to thrive, propelling them to the rank of second largest behavioral healthcare provider in the country.

Over the past few years, however, the proliferation of new technology has led to a crowded field offering competitive services. We took an entirely new verbal and visual approach to their CRM effort, introducing more emotive messaging and combined it with a variety of leading edge email capabilities. The results of our efforts led to record setting engagement, open, and click through rates.

We created a more efficient online promotion platform, and inspiring new creative formats for Glamour, which led to the most successful online subscription campaign in company history. This led to additional efforts across a number of their publications, including Vogue, Lucky Self and more, as well as the creation of the nationwide Allure Beauty Blogger program, which continues today.

We shifted their brand positioning and messaging to better align with their target. The messaging empowered consumers to seize the moment, embrace every path and ultimately enjoy life’s journey. The new positioning was supported by an integrated national effort which inspired greater interest from national buyers and increased sales.

That’s why Launchpad worked with FairPoint to create a new offers strategy in keeping with their straight-talk, people-first attitude. With the Stay & Save offer, we turned the industry paradigm on its head, rewarding customer loyalty by doing the unthinkable — actually lowering rates the longer the customer stayed with FairPoint. The result? Consumer demand was so great, FairPoint had to slow down media buys in order to let their call centers catch up.

This year, we created a brand new website, brochure, invitations and videos to create a unified foundation brand message that has since helped the foundation gain additional awards and donations.

While we needed to work within the ballpark (pun intended) of their master brand guidelines, our challenge was to make the creative so vital, that it easily stood out from the crowd, thus creating a greater affinity (pun, again, intended) for the cards. The Launchpad team also leveraged baseball’s mythic nostalgia by locating the inherent humor in some of the game’s most enduring traditions, thus animating the product with true life and real emotion. Video Nestlé Waters Challenging engrained perceptions Nestlé Waters delivery business had become staid and tired in a world where delivery had become commonplace. Known only for delivery of large water jugs, Nestle Waters now had the opportunity to invigorate the business by making some noise about its new capacity to deliver a far broader portfolio. By using a dash of playful innuendo, and a simple but powerful message, we seduced moms like never before. The campaign lifted awareness, trial and social engagement.

And rebrand we did. We recreated No Fear at the consumer and retailer level, and put the brand back on people’s radar. And back in stores where it belongs.

But unlike so many others who claimed to include natural ingredients, yet were loaded with sugar and preservatives, their bars were exactly what was promised – made only from fruit and natural fruit juice, nothing else. Armed with this point of difference, we sought to redefine the term “natural” in a category full of imposters.
