TITLE: Space Needle Website: The Space Needle has defined Seattle’s skyline since its construction in 1962, where it stands as an optimistic symbol of the future.

Driven by the theme “Where Seattle Starts”, this website provides a starting point for any Seattle-based adventure while honoring the quirky, unconventional nature of the brand.

TITLE: Shermometer: The agency wanted to tell the world about our new Twitter sentiment analyzer – a proprietary product that allows us to measure positive vs. negative Tweets for any specified topic. So we decided to show it off using a topic everyone was talking about, Richard Sherman. We analyzed more than 1.2 million Tweets over two weeks, plotting the Sherman saga from the NFC Championship through the Seahawks epic Super Bowl victory. The site generated significant traffic and buzz, including a segment on KIRO News Radio. Click on image above to view site.

Bronze M Winner: Hydrogen Advertising
TITLE: 12 Days of Giving: Giving the right corporate gift is always tricky. How do you let clients and friends know that you appreciate them with a gift that won’t get left in the kitchen as “Free for the taking?” At our agency, we decided to give our friends the best gift of all: The gift of giving. Every day for 12 days, we chose a different global, regional or local nonprofit as the recipient of a gift — in our friend or client’s name. Besides the myriad of web hits and “thank you” emails, the most impressive result was our 100% re-gifting rate. Take that, fruitcake.

TITLE: Veterans Promise Coffee, “A Critical Time”: Today America’s veterans are experiencing a real economic crisis, not a threatened one. The sobering reality, our veterans are experiencing unemployment at a rate twice that of the US national average. More than 250,000 veterans will be added to the civilian job market every year through 2031. Veterans are also losing ground on the small business front. Since 2000, veteran self-employment has declined 21.6%. There is a critical need for America’s corporations, organizations and agencies to actively foster, support and engage small businesses owned and operated by veterans of our military. Veterans Promise Coffee™ (VPC) exists to provide opportunity and a small business path for post 9/11 veterans.
