Featured WORK
Building Brands, Products, and Experiences through meticulously targeted campaigns
01. There’s No Place Like SportS
Opportunity
In 2019, we set out to change the trajectory of the ESPN brand and build an emotional connection with fans. Audience Expansion is a company priority, and likely will be for several years to come. Female, Hispanic, and youth audiences are the primary expansion targets...
EXECUTION
9 unique film executions over 5 years, with social, OOH, and activations to boot. Creatively, we needed to show this fans that ESPN has what they love. And as a brand – grounded in a recent brand audit in which we analyzed the health of our master brand and sub-brands across key audience segments – we needed to show these audiences that we care, and reflect their fandom in the way that they define it. The result was the creation of a new brand platform: There’s No Place Like Sports
Outcome
There’s No Place Like Sports has been extremely effective and resides among the top of our marketing sports in terms of creative testing against key metrics such as improving perceptions of ESPN, showing fans we care, and making fans feel that ESPN is bold.
02. One App, One Tap
Opportunity
The ESPN App represents a single portal sports destination for fans where they can stream, listen, play, and follow their favorite leagues and teams. However at the time according to comScore, 50% of the U.S. digital sports category did not engage with ESPN Digital in a given month. That figure represented an untapped market of prospects that should be visiting the ESPN App on a frequent basis.
EXECUTION
Partnering with up and coming artist across rap, R&B, and urban pop, we leaned into product UI/UX to showcase all of ESPN, all-in one place.
Outcome
The campaign drove ESPN App MAUs to historic highs and fans were pleasantly shocked at the quality of the sound and design from the worldwide leader in sports.
03. Sports Forever
Opportunity
Since 1979, ESPN has delivered sports to fans around the world. Now, with the launch of its newest campaign and the first teaser for ESPN direct-to-consumer (DTC), “SPORTS FOREVER,” ESPN signaled how it planned to serve sports fans – forever.
EXECUTION
Debuting June 5 during Game 1 of the NBA Finals on ABC, “SPORTS FOREVER” celebrated ESPN’s iconic legacy with flashes from an origin story that is the basis of its company mission: To serve sports fans.
