Endnotes:

1. The Power of Smooth is a campaign for Gillette Venus that first ran during the Paris Olympics on TV and streaming. It highlights the competitive edge of using Venus razors for athletic performance rather than beauty and sensation. We also made the brand the Official Razor of Team USA and launched a limited-edition gold razor for shoppers, which is cost-effective and only requires reskinning the box every two years. Agency: Grey
2. Ford wasn’t selling as well as it could in the Southwest region until our strategic, focused creative efforts propelled the region to become the nation’s sales leader. We launched an aspirational continuity campaign featuring desert-focused vehicles, target demographics, local flora, shot running footage, and B-roll for post-production seasonal promotions. We worked hard and pulled it off as a skeleton crew for less than $400,000. We didn’t stop there. The following year, we expanded the campaign, updated the entire product library, and added digital for under a million. Then, separately but simultaneously, we leveraged the NFL x Ford partnership and crafted a campaign for the Arizona Cardinals. Agency: GTB
3. Established the brand voice for DarGlobal to help the private company be understood by investors and go public.

7. Strategic product narrative for the Reasons Why campaign that presents Ford innovation as a heartwarming experience and became a top-performing hero spot that boosted mid-sized SUV sales across North America. Followed by a post-produced winter spot that captures drivers’ trust in their AWD Ford SUV and centers on how the driving experience feels across all winter conditions, highlighting the KPIs and RTBs. Agency: GTB
8. First and only try.
