As the blockbuster show Game of Thrones was approaching its final season, Mazzio’s came to us wanting to capitalize on all of the buzz and hype among the legions of Game of Thrones viewers and associate the Mazzio’s brand with the Game of Thrones franchise. Our strategy was a combination of six-weeks of giveaways on Facebook and Instagram—to coincide with the six episodes of the final season—and outdoor boards to drive traffic to tease the giveaways and drive viewers to the Mazzio’s social media accounts. At the beginning of each week, we deployed a new post that associated Mazzio’s products... Read More
One consistent challenge for many companies is that the people who develop a new product, service or brand lose often sight of WHY it was created. Before developing marketing strategy and messaging, it is crucial to understand the benefit that the product is providing for a specific audience, and how your organization delivers this benefit uniquely, a.k.a. the value proposition. Even if your organization’s leadership agrees on mission, vision and values, it is possible that you will find a wide spectrum of opinions when you begin to discuss the value proposition. In your next leadership meeting, identify a product or... Read More

Anyone who writes social media was reminded of a good rule yesterday when DiGiorno Pizza used a hashtag that they shouldn’t have. And that rule is do your research before using a hashtag that may seem good for your brand, but turns out it isn’t.

It’s unfortunate that the person who posted it did not research before posting. The person that posted the... Read More

He may have invented the term “illustography,” the process he uses to mix illustration, photography and multiple media. To Bryan, colors have numbers and letters have value (cogs and wheels again). And he’s been doing logos since he started the “Three Stooges Club” in second grade. As a professional designer, Bryan has won a ton of awards and has had more than 40 of his logos published in the LogoLounge book series. Most recently, he picked up... Read More
