Media Kits for DNR and HFN Magazines
– Prior media kits for these publications featured their logos and not much else to showcase their personalities, much less target markets. These two solutions both garnered design awards and industry recognition.
Ad Campaign for MediaWhiz
– Instead of asking prospects to purchase a product, the strategy of this campaign was to make MediaWhiz the "go to" agency for lots of stuff. "Results come from us".
Special Section for the Italian Trade Commission
– Twice a year, shot in Florence Italy at the Pitti Oumo trade show, this section was produced to appear in DNR magazine, stateside, two weeks later. This section gave the publication advertisers, that were too small to appear at the US mens show, a presence in the show issue for a lot less than attending.
Ad Campaigns for Dug and Supima
