Darigold : Farmalicious
Description
Darigold is a 100 year old Northwest Dairy company. They came to us for a brand overhaul. After an extensive research and planning period we unleashed Farmalicious, when farm meets delicious, on the world. So far, three years into it and the Northwest is considerably more Farmalicious. As is Darigold with sales increasing and brand awareness rising. Call us for more specifics. It's not very farmerly for us to talk too much.

Sounders : Launch Campaign
The Seattle Sounders FC came to us with a logo and no team and asked us to help them sell out a giant stadium. We decided to take it to the streets and Scarf Seattle with literally thousands of scarves to get the city excited for the newest professional sports franchise. In the end, we broke every record in the league for ticket sales, and sold out every game.

Sounders : Date With A Sounder
After successfully launching the team in 2009 and a successful sophomore season in 2010, the Sounders asked us to start to build some love for their players, not just the team or match experience. So we invited the city of Seattle on a Date With a Sounder, a fun campaign aimed at introducing the city to the players.

Sounders : Play The Full 90
Give us your Full 90 has been the Sounders tag line since their inception 5 years ago (look at the golfball to the left of this one). Anyhow, "Its time to play the Full 90" is just us having fun with that line and shaking it up a little as we ask our fans to come out and give us their Full 90 again. Our goal this year was to create a campaign that was fun and showed off the players. Like the campaign says, "It's a game that's also a show!"

Rainier : Restore The R
We shot this as the launch of a campaign to help “Restore the R.” In case you were living under rock in Seattle in the 70s, The Rainier R was an iconic symbol of the Seattle skyline until the brewery shut down a few decades ago. We found the R leaning up against the wall in the gift shop of a museum. We reached out to Rainier, who still sells the beer in the Pacific Northwest, and they got excited.
The results are this campaign, www.RestoreTheR.com which is worth checking out. Contestants from all over the world are “earning bulbs”, sending photos of their escapades documenting their love for Rainier Beer. 2012 Advertising -
Wilson Tennis : International Tennis Court
Perched high in the Alps is an international tribunal where the world’s tennis disputes are settled once and for all. This isn’t a court of grass, cement or clay. It’s a court of justice. Welcome to the Tennis Court. The game’s highest, most powerful and least understood governing body.
It is here that two controversial new Wilson rackets are on trial. The Wilson Juice and Steam generate so much power and spin, some are questioning whether they should even be legal. The fate of tennis as we know it hangs in the balance as lawyers clad in their best whites battle for control of the court. 2012 Advertising -
Darigold : Better Butter
Butter has been the key product we've been featuring in our fall campaigns for Darigold. Over the past two years we've done the Better Butter Better campaign. Tons of interaction, tons of press and tons of butter have been the byproduct of this campaign. We've been extremely pleased with the campaign and most importantly butter sales have been up significantly during these time periods.

HomeStreet Bank
HomeStreet is a 100 year old bank that we completely rebranded from the ground up. After an extensive research phase, we created everything from the new identity and branch signage to the advertising campaign to branch grand openings. And of course, their first ever Superbowl spot (Ok, it was regional, but it was a big deal). We also even brokered their sponsorship as "the official bank of the Seahawks and Sounders." For a smaller, local bank, that was huge. Awareness was almost zero when we started and it is well into double figures now. We love them and if you need a bank, and you are on the west coast, you'll love them too.

Oberto
This is our first campaign for Oberto, the best beef jerky in the world. Actually, it's the Most Excellent beef jerky in the world. Which is why we unabashedly called out its excellence and created a campaign that asks people not to just buy Oberto, but to Acquire a Taste for Excellence.
We're silly excited about the success so far and this campaign features one of the best things we've ever done: Flown our producer to rural Ohio to give away an Assload of Jerky. Check it out. It's most excellent. 2012 Advertising -
Bigger Faster Stronger Louder
Well, we won a Superbowl. Suck it. If that isn't success, what is? But hold your horses. When we started working with the Seahawks, things weren't as awesome. We had a new unproven coach, a ton of young no-name players and a losing record. It was time to position this team for what it was. A team that was always going to compete and give it all, but one that was truthfully Bigger. Stronger. Faster. Louder. This campaign has lasted a few years and really coincided with the growth of the team. And the LOUDER part was intentional to really ensure we had the loudest fan base in the world. And we do. In the world.

Copper Mountain : Everyone Deserves a Snow Day
Not everybody gets one, but Everybody Deserves a Snow Day. This was the idea behind our campaign for Copper Mountain Ski Resort. People in warmer climates don’t get to enjoy the glory that is a Snow Day, so we decided to give them one. We made it snow in Austin, Dallas and Kansas City, to name a few, to drive sales from these markets.

Microsoft : Pushpins
In the early days of Microsoft mapping software, we were asked to launch an integrated social feature to create awareness and drive traffic.
Since the pushpin as an icon had already moved into the digital world, we simply took the pin back out to the real world where it could be social and have some fun. 2012 Advertising -
Naked Juice
Naked Juice is not a cheap juice. When we got them they were struggling to authentic and yet aspirational. They wanted to take the brand to a healthy and clean look and showcase the better for you aspect of the juice. This print, OOH and in-store retail campaign did just that. And raised sales in a healthy way too.

Value Village
Value Village is also Savers on the East Coast and Unique in some parts of Canada and the Midwest. They are also international. So they came to us to help modernize their Halloween campaign and it lead to a year's worth of brand work and seasonal campaigns. We are thrilled to help them position themselves as more than your grandma's thrift store. They are a fun, quirky yet fantastic thrift store experience. Ask Macklemore, he filmed his famous "Thriftshop" video where we filmed our spots. Retail sales have been up since we started and thrifting has never been sexier.

ESPN
We created this campaign for ESPN’s Fantasy Football League Manager at a time when fantasy sports was reaching epic proportions. Despite the fact that ESPN’s service was pay-to-play vs. the competition’s free version, we were able to leverage the great ESPN tradition and triple the numbers from previous years. Touchdown.
