      • FOR THOSE WHO NEED WATER TO BREATHE

        Costa Sunglasses

         

        Decades of community marketing in the Southeast helped position Costa as the best sunglasses for anglers. But new corporate leadership had aspirations for the brand that couldn't be achived by relying solely on the fishing community. So to truly become a national name, Costa's first brand campaign had to broaden its appeal to welcome in new water lovers while still respecting its fishing heritage. So after thorough consumer research, we built a laser focused media plan to target Costa's audience and increase national brand awareness.

        DISPATCH

        YETI

        Half magazine, half catalog. The YETI Dispatch transformed direct mail into a printed brand experience to engage customers with stories of the wild and the gear that fuels them.

        UNTANGLED COLLECTION

        Costa Sunglasses

        An ocean free of plastic would be a sight worth seeing. Costa partnered with Bureo to make sunglasses from discarded fishing nets, and prevent more plastic from getting into the ocean.

        FLAGSHIP STORE

        YETI

        While you can actually buy a cooler there, YETI's Flagship Store is less a shopping experience and more a trip to the YETI Smithsonian. And Fast Company agreed.

        HOPPER FLIP

        YETI

        It can be hard to justify the cost of a YETI. So to launch a new cooler, the brand needed a way to rationalize a seemingly irrational purchase.

        YETI

        YETI vs.

        YETI

        How do you convince people a YETI can, in fact, stand up to almost anything? Prove it with explosions, cannon balls, catapults and fireworks. Literally.

        FATHER'S DAY

        YETI

        Stores are covered with ubiquitous messaging during retail holidays. YETI needed something that stayed true to its brand to stand out from the crowd.

        BOTTLE DIPPER

        When "your" barrel of Maker's takes 8 years to age, a pilgramage to the distillery is a no-brainer. Choosing when to open the bottle is a more thoughtful decision.
