Sun "Lucky Sunny"

The buying decision for dishwasher products is increasingly taken in-store. Despite being market leader, Sun was becoming vulnerable due to dependence on results from infrequent display promotions. Brief: Bring a brand promotion alive, which is strong enough to run from the shelf and built on the brand's core communication thought. Using the “Sun Maker” (inventor) and his assistant acting in the the Sun TVC's was key. They are both passionate about developing new ideas to make dishwashing better, easier or more fun. In every promo pack of Sun dishwasher tablets a dishwasher lottery ticket was included; a so called "Lucky Sunny". A code would only become visable on the ticket after it had been put in the dishwasher along with the dirty dishes. After entering this code on the Lucky Sunnies website, one could see if one was lucky enough to be a winner. Prizes ranged from a brand new car to downloadable music files.

IWA "It Should be Banned"

The job was to help The IWA generate Corporate Sponsorship opportunities. They recommended positioning the IWA as a vibrant entertainment alternative that’s “barely legal” and probably “should be banned”. A series of increasingly threatening (but funny) reply postcards were sent to decision makers at targeted companies whose consumer base was similar to the IWA’s. Positive replies were sent an “evidence” bag containing a brochure outlining wrestling’s history, fan base and sponsorship possibilities. Three “get-out-of-jail-free” vouchers for the next event and a “subpoena” to schedule a presentation from the IWA were also included in the package.

VIVIL "The Smelling Flip Book"

VIVIL means fresh breath – in any situation. They developed a special give-away item to communicate this key product benefit – a fresh breath flip book. When you flick through the flip book, it looks like someone who has just eaten a large doner is breathing on you, and the draught produced by the motion of the pages reinforces the impression. Fortunately, their breath smells not of kebab meat and chilli sauce, but fresh and minty, because the pages of the book have been impregnated with a peppermint scent.

Plan "Kick me, I'm a weirdo, Copy me"

Campaign for Plan in Belgium, where kids were sent out in the streets with notes they could pin on the backs of grown-ups in order to fool them. As in school they used to do this with ‘kick me’, here instead the message on the notes were in the sense of “I’m a weirdo” and “Copy me” . People that had been fooled could read a message on the backside “You’ve just been fooled by a Belgian child. Give children from the south also a chance to be a child. Start your own plan with Plan Belgium and become a Plan Parent. Surf to www.iederzijnplan.be” The url translates as “Everyone his own plan”.

Van Dobben, a famous croquet manufacturer in Holland has signed up exclusively with almost 400 golf clubs. Croquettes are a delicious snack that is often enjoyed after a game of golf. To give them special attention, we developed a new way of communicating. In the last hole we placed round cards with a little hole in the middle. When the golfer reaches for the ball, his attention is immediately drawn to the copy. The copy capitalises on the striking resemblance between the golf ball and the croquet, which have exactly the same size and shape ‘Imagine a ball this size’.
