BODYGROOM
To successfully launch its new electric razor, Bodygroom, designed to shave and trim body hair, Philips Norelco had to get guys talking about the uncomfortable subject of male body grooming. Without a budget to support traditional media, Philips Norelco needed a big viral idea to take body grooming from a private act to a public topic. To meet aggressive sales goals with a budget under $375,000, Philips Norelco had to take body grooming out of the closet.

SATURN SKY LAUNCH
The 2006 launch of the Sky roadster offered Saturn the chance to enter the sports car category and reenergize the Saturn brand – without abandoning the core values that had made Saturn great. A combination of refined targeting, innovative launch strategies and a powerful brand idea announced that Saturn had found a new path. The result was the fastest-selling car of 2006 and a launch campaign that exceeded ambitious goals, brought new people into the Saturn fold and reinvigorated the brand. “Like always. Like never before.”
