PULL THE PLUG
ON BIG POWER


CHALLENGE

Evergreen empowers homeowners by finding low electric rates and handling sign-up and renewals. How could we help them stand out in the Texas energy market?

STRATEGY

Give Texans a true energy champion: The Bolt. He’s a refreshingly relatable superhero who exposes Big Power’s schemes and brings truth, justice and savings to all.

IDEA

We brought The Bolt to life in a series of animated videos full of tongue-in-cheek humor and comic book style. These aired on digital TV and social, accompanied by print and out-of-home.

Taking Omni Off Pause


CHALLENGE

In 2020, COVID-19 greatly impacted the U.S. hotel industry. It suffered its worst year on record as millions of Americans canceled vacations to stay at home.

STRATEGY

As time passed, there was a lot of pent-up demand for travel, so we tapped into that with the “You Paused, Now Play” campaign which inspired travelers to take life off pause and return to Omni.

IDEA

As business results began to improve and hotels reopened, we launched an internal campaign inspired by Omni’s name, which means “All.” The “All In” campaign was introduced at a company-wide meeting that, in the words of our client, “left everyone’s heart swelling with Omni pride.”

CHALLENGE

In 2021, Texas had one of the highest rates of Covid-19 cases in the country, yet less than 44% of residents were vaccinated. With 99.5% of unvaccinated patients dying, we needed to convince the inconvincible to get vaccinated.

STRATEGY

Research showed that the best way to convince people to get vaccinated was through their friends and family, so we created a campaign designed to help them Find the Words.

IDEA

We created a docu-style campaign featuring three families who lost unvaccinated loved ones. All leading to a website with tips and videos to help people Find the Words to convince friends and family to get vaccinated.

Chapps wanted to transform its family-owned burger joint into a full-fledged franchise. So how do you turn a 34-year old business into a Texas burger institution?

STRATEGY

Customers told us that Chapps’ amazing burgers, quality ingredients and fair prices kept them coming back and made generations of loyal customers. That passion to make a great tasting burgers served as inspiration for the campaign.

IDEA

To serve up their passion for better burgers, we created a friendly brand voice and design inspired by the family’s heritage. The voice was served up with smile-worthy headlines to help people understand what makes a Chapps burger so special.
