Creativity with a Purpose
Is the Name of the Game Today
The marketing world is coming around to an Effie way
of thinking and waking up to the fact that effectiveness
and creativity are inextricably linked.
While some award shows are gratuitous exercises in moneymaking and artistic pretension, the Effies have always been
closer to celebrating the purpose of advertising – you know,
selling more stuff, building consumer loyalty and increasing
profit margins by adding brand value. Year after year,
they’ve drawn an impressive cast of judges and rewarded
reasonable campaigns for delivering tangible business
results. But for some reason, up until now, they weren’t
regarded in all quarters as the premier U.S. ad awards.
Why? Well, first off the event was held at the Marriott in
Midtown Manhattan, a venue about as conducive to a
long night of celebrating as a double dose of Ambien.
But, more importantly, the trouble with the Effies was that,
rightly or wrongly, they were too often perceived as the
un-creative awards. While the annual pilgrimage to the
French Riviera was all about celebrating the art and craft
of commercials, the Effies were about being effective (the
clue is in the name), which has been seen by some as
different from being creative.
Nor was this just about the Effies. Too many people in
the marketing world have believed that effective work
is about repeatedly bashing people over the head with
their messages – also known as churning out ads that
score well in recall tests in which participants are forced
to watch the ads and then asked if they can remember
them. Obviously the flip side of that thinking is that creative
work that draws in consumers with its quality storytelling is
somehow more about art than ROI.
Today, nothing could be further from the truth. A seemingly
infinite array of media and entertainment options for
consumers, together with a wealth of technologyenabled techniques for screening content they’re not
interested in, has seen to it that engaging content is the
price of entry for marketers. If you’re not relevant, useful
or highly entertaining today, you’re not in the game. All
the repetitions of your brand name you can muster in
30-seconds aren’t going to be enough if the viewers are
bypassing your ads. Intrusion is dying, and advertisers
need to get themselves invited into consumers’ lives.
sit-back medium, is inevitably going to become an
interactive channel – most predictions expect IPTV will take
hold before the end of this decade. And at that point those
who have relied on shouting loudest, rather than engaging
consumers with a relevant proposition,will truly be found out.
And by the end of next year most TV advertising will be
bought and sold based on commercial ratings, which will
give the truest indication yet of how creativity influences
ad effectiveness. As I said in a recent column in Advertising
Age, commercial ratings – especially once they measure
the audience for each spot on a second-by-second basis
– have the potential to reinvigorate creativity. Just as the
TV buyer can call the seller after he or she receives the
overnight ratings to discuss why a program isn’t pulling the
promised numbers, commercial ratings will give marketers
a real insight into whether people actually want to watch
their commercials. Marketers and their agencies will be
able to see the exact dropoff in viewers and compare
that across different types of creative.
Failure to engage consumers will suddenly be transparent
in a way it’s never been before. What’s more, advertisers
whose spots don’t win consumers over will end up paying
dearly, because TV networks – anxious to show they can
retain viewers through breaks – will likely end up charging
more for spots that fail to keep audiences tuned in. That
or they’ll relegate those ads to the worst positions in pods.
Either way advertising that doesn’t engage will lose.
The bash-them-over-the-head ad club will eventually die
out. Those advertisers who give audiences something they
really want, something they’ll actually opt to engage with,
will thrive. The Effies, as an awards that focuses on creativity
with a purpose, will surely thrive along with them.

Tyson Foods’ mission is to proudly power the world with its chicken,
beef and pork products. This campaign leverages cultural cues,
humor and love of family to demonstrate that Tyson’s multi-protein products provide the energy to power busy families through
busy days. The campaign connects on an emotional level and has
helped establish Tyson as the multi-protein brand of choice among
African-American consumers while generating some of the strongest
business results in Tyson’s history: significant increases in awareness,
purchase intent, brand image ratings and effectiveness scores.

BRAVE NEW TRACTORS
New Holland, a 111-year-old haytools company, faced the challenge of reinventing itself as a tractor brand in a category of
fierce competition. With a limited budget, the company utilized a
brand intrusion media strategy choreographed to launch during
the peak of the purchase consideration period. This allowed New
Holland to reverse years of sliding market share and post a 9% increase in overall tractor sales. The campaign, the company’s most
successful marketing program to date, also helped New Holland
exceed its objective of increasing dealer satisfaction by 27%.

LEADER OF LEAN
Beef, once America’s favorite meal, faced dramatic consumption erosion, due to chicken’s perceived nutritional and price
advantages. Targeting “skeptical” beef lovers, this campaign
challenged beef’s unhealthy reputation while fueling passion for
its superior taste. The big idea: Beef is a lean leader, and there are
29 low-fat cuts to prove it. Candid headlines, sumptuous imagery
and unabashed copy. The advertising reinforced beef’s position
as a lean leader, igniting loyalty, inspiring sales and positively
changing consumer beliefs about its healthfulness.
It’s hard enough coming up with a
great idea these days. But coming
up with a great idea that actually
works—well, let’s just say, we
stand in awe of your mind-blowing
createffectivity. Of course, we know
a little bit about helping people like
you create remarkably impactful
work. After all, Sappi is the largest
and most respected producer of
coated paper in North America.
In fact, we’d like to think that the
high quality of our paper actually
contributes to the effectiveness
of your communication. (Of course,
we know it’s really your genius that’s
responsible—but you can throw us
a little bone…) Anyway, we’d like to
congratulate this year’s Effie winners
and want you to know how proud
we are of the effectiveness of our
paper… you… how proud we are
of you and your accomplishment.

FAMILY FARM RAISED
Coming off a record sales year, Gold’n Plump Poultry was facing
a national oversupply of chicken due to widespread headlines
about avian influenza, arsenic and salmonella. To combat consumer fears and differentiate the brand from larger competitors,
the company launched a campaign centered around the fact
that Gold’n Plump chickens are raised on local family farms by
people who know what’s best for chicken. Even in the face of
an organic chicken boom, this campaign helped Gold’n Plump
achieve increased sales and record levels of advertising awareness and loyalty.
MINI COVERT
The big idea was to advertise to people who already bought
a Mini to build evangelism for the brand through creating buzz,
deepening engagement and driving participation. Communications were encrypted so that only Mini owners with spy-like tools
could decode them. Thus the designation: Covert. Think “Mission
Impossible” meets James Bond meets advertising. Covert has
achieved its goals of buzz (75%), engagement (21%) and participation. More than 3,500 owners joined for the first-ever Mini Takes
the States coast-to-coast road rally in August.

BORN FROM JETS
Saab sales were flat and, in order to grow, the brand had to evolve
from niche to challenger. To increase brand awareness and consideration in the highly competitive luxury import market, Saab
needed to own a unique performance claim.“Born from jets” celebrates Saab’s aircraft heritage to deliver a compelling, Saabownable performance message. Since the campaign launched
in October 2005, Saab sales, performance attributes and awareness are up, and “Born from jets” is now the sixth most correctly
recognized automotive tagline, out of 35.

LEXUS IS LAUNCH: WHY LIVE IN ONE DIMENSION?
Since its introduction in the U.S. in 1989, Lexus has dominated
in every segment except one: near-luxury performance. With
staunch competition from BMW, Acura, Infiniti, Mercedes-Benz
and Audi, Lexus had ambitious goals both in an unforgiving category and among an entire generation of buyers who had ignored
the brand for decades. A literal transformation of the brand’s
relationship with near-luxury buyers was necessary to have a
chance to be recognized as a legitimate contender, let alone a
category leader.

Schick changed the way shaving was marketed to women with
the introduction of Quattro for Women. Offering a humorous and
feminine take on technology, the advertising established Quattro
for Women as the first high-performance razor made for women.
As a result, Quattro for Women became the No. 1 selling razor sku,
helping Schick to achieve market leadership of women’s razors.

THE POWER OF FOUR
Schick needed to launch a new men’s razor - despite second-tomarket technology, despite 10% the budget of the competion and
despite low equity with young men. The goal was to engage the
audience in the brand and drive sales. Looking past the “blade
wars,” the campaign focused on the confident magnetism that
comes with a close, clean shave and was called “The Power of 4.”
The results: Two million website users engaged in the integrated
campaign, and the company’s franchise dollar share grew 52%.

READY TO TANQUERAY? (HOLIDAY)
In a white spirit category dominated by trendy vodkas, Tanqueray
leveraged recent successes of the “Ready to Tanqueray” (Tony
Sinclair) campaign to accelerate well beyond the competition
during the cluttered holiday season. Utilizing mass and progressive
media channels, the brand successfully positioned Tony Sinclair
and Tanqueray as ambassadors of holiday cheer. Brand affinity
climbed to new heights, and Tanqueray outpaced the entire gin
category after the holiday campaign launch.
PLANET IN NEED
After 13 years of “got milk?” deprivation narratives, the long-established campaign took a new turn, creating news for the product that everybody thought they already knew about. In 2005
“got milk?” recaptured relevance and began to reengineer the
benefits of milk to reintroduce itself all over again – not just as a
good-for-you staple but as a new, natural wonder tonic that was
truly out-of-this world.

MILK YOUR DIET
As adults, people drink less than half the milk they did as a kid.
Women in particular stop drinking milk because it’s fattening. After
years of declining milk sales, MilkPEP was given news that helped
find a way to start consumers drinking milk again – the natural
ingredients in milk help towards weight loss. Milk was positioned as
the secret ingredient to success and inspired women across the
country to incorporate milk back into their diets. This created the
largest percent volume increase since the milk program began.

This program is a free, hotel-style wakeup call service which invites Chicagoland consumers to be awakened for a delicious
breakfast at McDonald’s by their favorite local celebrities. Upon
calling the number, consumers are greeted with the current
McDonald’s breakfast offering and are then invited to choose from a
list of celebrities to receive their free wakeup call from the next morning.
As of September, call volume exceeded projections by 7.6 times. Chicagoland McDonald’s has also experienced the strongest sales growth
in more than five years at 8%, surpassing national sales growth.

IT STAYS WITH YOU
In 2006, Kellogg’s Frosted Mini Wheats realized that it had lost its
connection to consumers in a sea of dietary trends. Mini Wheats
understood that it needed an insight that ran deeper than basic
nutrition and into the hearts of consumers. By targeting Moms
and tapping into their basic instinct to nurture their children, the
campaign showed how Mini Wheats, with eight filling layers of
crunchy whole grain fiber, can help keep children full throughout
the morning so that they can stay focused on the task at hand.
RESULTS.
In one word, it’s why we do
what we do. It’s why we believe in creativity. We
believe the freshest, boldest, most attention-getting,
impactful ideas we can possibly imagine are exactly
the kinds of ideas that are most likely to produce
results — at the Effies, at the Clios, at the cash
register. We believe in the left brain. We believe
in the right brain. We don’t put much stock in
either-or. We believe our value derives directly from
our passionate commitment to giving our clients the
best of both. Creativity. And accountability. Proven
results. Social currency is nice. Hard currency keeps
the lights on. It’s about that simple. One result of
that approach is that our client relationships tend
to last a little longer. The six clients who are with
us here this evening, for example, have been with
us for an average of 38 years. Another result is that
tomorrow morning we get the opportunity to roll
up our sleeves and recommit ourselves to generating
results for every client on our roster like it’s nobody
else’s business.
The most effective agency in America six years in a row. In partnership with ARC, Lapiz and SMG.

FIBER EXPERTS
The All-Bran cereal brand had nearly 90 years of serious taste
and image baggage to overcome. Simply launching a tastier
version (All-Bran Yogurt Bites) wasn’t enough. The challenge was
to transform this “cereal laxative” into a desirable food. By repositioning the brand’s effectiveness in relation to fiber supplements
and emphasizing great taste, the messaging forced consumers
to reevaluate their fiber habits and give All-Bran Yogurt Bites a try.
Base business sales soared, and the copy was dubbed the “most
persuasive ad” ever tested in the Millward Brown database.

GET A MAC
Despite iPod’s staggering success, Mac remained a niche player
in the computer market. In January 2006, the new Intel-based
Macs were an opportunity to make Mac as culturally relevant as
iPod, but Mac didn’t translate to the PC world. The idea: Compare
the easy, fun Mac experience with PC’s frustrating complications.
This campaign personified each, and the result was magic. A simple, charming metaphor with all the reasons to get a Mac. Market
share grew by 42%; Apple had record sales; and the campaign
was culturally influential.

TAKE BACK CONTROL
IBM could no longer effectively market hardware systems without
acknowledging the elephant in the server room. To keep up with
growing business demands at the lowest possible cost, companies
built Frankenstein infrastructures, patching cheap servers to their
systems to run individual applications. IT guys ran in circles just to
keep the business afloat. They needed an advocate. IBM acknowledged the problem from IT’s perspective and empowered
them toward a solution. Sales for advertised products spiked, and
IBM made huge gains as category leader.

MAKE EVERY SHOT A POWERSHOT
Canon enjoyed a strong brand reputation in the analog camera
world; yet as the category moved digital, Canon’s competition
intensified. Being a reliable, high-quality brand was no longer
enough, particularly in a maturing category. Canon PowerShot
had to transform from being a solid performer to become a star
brand. Canon PowerShot partnered with emerging tennis star
Maria Sharapova to add star power. Since the campaign launch,
Canon has solidified its status as the clear market leader.

PREPARE AND PROTECT AMERICA
The devastating hurricane seasons of 2004 and 2005 left Americans
reeling. It became clear that the biggest catastrophe this nation
faced was not being prepared for the next one. Yet no company
was willing to publicly advocate a viable, long-term solution – except Allstate. The company led a public dialogue around a plan
to better prepare and protect America from natural catastrophes.
Campaign results included: a significant increase in website visits,
organizations embracing the cause and joining a coalition, and
insurance industry press coverage visibility more balanced.

REAL ISSUES
To drive reputation and advocacy among global energy influentials
– those who determine the exploration, extraction and delivery of
energy around the world – Chevron successfully repositioned the
corporate brand as a forward-thinking and collaborative industry
leader. The campaign did this by facing up to the real energy issues
that concerned the audience, those being ducked by the competition, and by encouraging a collaborative response. Research
showed an increase in Chevron reputation metrics among those
who had seen the campaign. Chevron’s industry standing grew.
Advocacy increased by 127%.

Building a core audience for a documentary film festival among
aficionados is one thing; doubling the rate of ticket sales growth
by reaching an audience that believes documentaries are the
movies that put students to sleep in class is quite another. That
was the challenge for the culturally rich, but financially strapped
Full Frame Film Festival. This campaign played off Hollywood’s
penchant for melodramatic cliché by underscoring the honesty,
importance and pure entertainment value of documentaries and
in turn attracted a whole new audience.

CATCH THE GRINCH
Most Broadway shows succeed in attracting an audience of tourists by showcasing the production’s size and spectacle through
conventional media. Without the benefit of noteworthy stars,
fancy pyrotechnics or the ad budget that goes with it, this show
literally brought to life a Dr. Seuss classic through a holistic, unconventional campaign that inspired a Broadway record number of
New Yorkers to “Catch the Grinch.”

SCHELL’S DARK. A BEER FACING EXTINCTION
Despite its rich Minnesotan heritage, the August Schell Brewery
was nearing extinction at bars in the Twin Cities. Perceived as
“your father’s beer,” the brewery was outspent by macro-brews,
whose million-dollar budgets helped them control bar tap lines.
The challenge was to establish a larger presence in a crowded
market and stake the beer’s rightful claim as a cool, iconic local
beer–on a micro budget. With an unusual concert–series promotion and new branding campaign, tap line penetration increased
by 500% and sales by 30%.

TOBU
Bridgestone Golf wasn’t going to beat the likes of Titleist or Nike
with conventional weapons of TV dollars and print ads; at best
the company would be outspent 50-to-1. So it was important to
be viral, to be a part of the golf lexicon. Bridgestone changed
the golf language by using the Japanese word “tobu” (roughly
translated, “to fly far with emotion”). By standing out above competitors, this campaign produced record sales and the attention
Bridgestone was hoping for.

SHADOW OF COLOSSUS “GIANTOLOGY”
Armed with a meager advertising budget, Sony needed to make the
campaign for an unwanted PlayStation videogame Shadow of the
Colossus monumental. The solution was to transform the campaign
into what the audience loved the most – one big game. Instead of
showing advertising, the audience could play with it. This campaign
was viewed by more than 25 million people, discussed and referenced on millions of web addresses and featured in mainstream
media. Above all, it led to sales that were 162.6% over goal.

The challenge for this campaign was simple but daunting – to
make the World Cup relevant to American sports fans who consider soccer to be a second-class sport not worth watching. To
achieve this objective, it was necessary to demonstrate that the
World Cup is much bigger than the sport of soccer itself. Instead,
it’s the stage where the ultimate drama of sports unfolds. The
World Cup gives American sports fans the opportunity to witness
what takes place when the fate of an entire nation is at stake.

WHAT WILL YOU DO FOR LOVE THIS CHRISTMAS?
The Diamond Trading Co. faced a particularly tough 2005 Christmas season. Christmas diamond sales had declined the previous
two years; the media budget was dramatically down; and men
were distracted by deals on trendy electronics. In spite of these
challenges, the agency developed a plan that grew diamond
sales 6%. The key: Appeal to men’s deep desires to be her hero.
This campaign traces one man’s arduous journey home to his wife
for Christmas, culminating with an emotional gift of diamonds.

Converse launched its first signature basketball shoe, the Wade, in

1-888-GOMcWAKEUP
This is a free, hotel-style wakeup call service which allows Chicagoland consumers to be awakened for a delicious breakfast at
McDonald’s by their favorite local celebrities. Consumers calling the
number are greeted with the current McDonald’s breakfast offering,
then invited to choose from a list of Chicago celebrities to receive
their free wakeup call from the next morning. As of September, call
volume exceeded projections by 7.6 times. Chicagoland McDonald’s has also experienced the strongest sales growth in more than
five years at 8%, surpassing national sales growth.
WE’RE UP WHEN YOU’RE UP
The unusual affinity between an “open 24 hours” promotion and
“don’t drink and drive” message afforded McDonald’s an opportunity to demonstrate community commitment while increasing
late-night store traffic. Bar coasters, free rides home in a pimpedout cab, even Ronald’s wallet as collateral provided multiple
campaign touches in and around late night hot spots in order
to reach young adults in their “I’m lovin’ it” moment. These ideas
and environments were chosen because who needs McDonald’s
more at 2 a.m. than people in need of sobering up?

MY LIFE. MY CARD
This campaign was created to modernize the American Express
brand and stimulate card acquisition. The extraordinary inner
lives of a select group of cardmembers, such as Robert De Niro,
Kate Winslet, Wes Anderson and the like, became the basis for
the campaign. This straightforward autobiographical approach
was remarkably fresh and extremely effective. “My life. My card”
strengthened the audience’s emotional affinity with the brand,
resulting in a direct and immediate lift to card acquisition.

2007 EFFIE AWARDS
THE ONE WITH A SAVINGS ACCOUNT
The agency identified a segment of high-value consumers who
should have been carrying the American Express card but weren’t.
Although they respected the American Express brand, it turned out
that “classic” cues of success and what it means to live “the good
life” weren’t connecting. The solution: a product and communications program built from the ground up, one that acknowledged
the values of these consumers and the idea that “the good life”
means many different things to different people.
Side by side now for 44 years.

BETTER PLACE TO DRIVE
To get consumers to question if they have the right insurance, Allstate took on a common enemy – car accidents. The chances of
having an accident within the next three years are one in eight: a
problem that affects everyone. Knowing this, Allstate positioned
its new auto features as the only insurance designed to actually
reduce the number of accidents by providing real incentives for
safe driving and better protection in the (likely) event of an accident. The result was unprecedented growth despite a smaller
budget than competition.

TALK TO CHUCK
The objective was to reignite a once great American brand – Charles
Schwab – and reclaim Schwab’s historical role as advocate of the
individual investor. The message put real investor issues front and
center and answered directly with “Talk To Chuck” – both as an
invitation to a conversation and a strong call to action. The campaign succeeded wildly. New to firm assets rose 36% – an incremental increase greater than many competitors annual revenue. And
Schwab gained ground and passed competitors in key success
metrics – consideration, momentum, relevance and differentiation.

IT’S PLAYTIME
Canon expected much when it launched in 2005 its digital single-lens reflex camera, the EOS 350D: double volume sales and
a defense of its market share against Nikon. For that Canon had
to change the mass market’s perception that SLR cameras are
large, complicated and only for photo buffs. The campaign succeeded beyond expectations: Canon raised the appeal of digital
SLR photography by 47%, grew its sales in the segment by 135%,
its market share by 9 percentage points – while Nikon’s share
declined by 12 percentage points.

SCRATCH GIFT GIVING
Washington’s Lottery wanted to boost Scratch ticket sales by another $10 million. But where those extra sales were going to come
from was not particularly obvious. There were no new games or
prizes to attract new players, and the core players’ spending ability
was maxed out. Rather than try to get people to play more Scratch,
it was decided that the solution was to get them to give more
Scratch. Thus the 2005 holiday gift-giving campaign was born.

campaign highlights the role that Always’ products and women
themselves can play in making their periods happier – whether
using a better product or eating all the chocolate they want. In
the first year of the launch, Always’ share grew from 49.4% to 54.1%
to achieve the most profitable year in Always’ history.
THE BRAID MAKES YOU BRAVE
In order to de-throne the 25-year incumbent and claim leadership
in the plastic category in four short years, P&G needed to capture users at an early age and make them believers for life. The
creative strategy was to take the highly relevant, but commonly
used, emotional benefit of confidence to the next level by linking
Pearl’s protection with period courage. Despite no news, near
impossible odds for growth and Playtex’s fiercely defending its
territory, Tampax increased its market share by 18% and crowned
Tampax Pearl queen of the plastic category.

CQ REAL
In April 2004, NicoDermCQ was faced with a significant roadblock
to growth – sales at a record low and smokers jaded by communication featuring actors in slice-of-life situations touting health risks.
This campaign redefined the playing field, connecting smokers with
smokers, highlighting real battles to succeed and real everyday victories such as skin looking better, increased energy, etc., instead of
seemingly unattainable long-term health benefits. This campaign
successfully achieved the objectives of re-engaging smokers and
reviving the business with annual sales growth of over 12%.

2007 EFFIE AWARDS
PRACTICE SAFE SLEEP
In the past year, Tylenol PM has been threatened by an onslaught
of new prescription sleep aids as well as the launch of Advil PM.
Despite projections that the business would take a 12% hit in sales,
two complementary Tylenol PM campaigns that launched in 2006
not only effectively defended the business – but actually grew it
over the year prior when Advil PM was not even on the market.
By leveraging the brand’s core safety heritage, Tylenol PM raised
the bar for safe sleep.

PASSION/POWER
This campaign was developed to withstand the first competitive
threat in Lantus’ history: two revolutionary new entrants in the
diabetes category and a direct competitor, each challenging
Lantus’ No. 1 position in a different way. Moreover, Lantus had very
low awareness among its core target. A strategy was devised using
consumer insight about the emotional impact of diabetes and a
core functional point of difference. While it would have been easy
to go the direct-to-consumer medical advertising route, Lantus
chose a more aspirational creative approach, which resulted in
meeting objectives.
YOUR DREAMS MISS YOU
This brand, the first innovation in sleep medicines in nearly 35 years,
launched in a highly competitive environment. The goal was to
seed the idea that if sleep sufferers want help with insomnia, something new was available. The breakthrough idea was not about
how people missed their dreams but rather how their dreams
missed them. By using traditional and emerging media, Rozerem
engaged people in places where they might experience stress
and losing sleep. Reaction was immediate and positive, with an
increase in traffic to rozerem.com and in new prescriptions.

LETTERS TO TOMORROW
Cleveland Clinic is ranked the No. 3 hospital in the nation; yet
many Americans do not know this. By tapping into the insight
that patients need confidence at the moment of diagnosis not
six months later, the campaign spoke to the genuine hope that
Cleveland Clinic instills in its patients. This campaign not only connects with consumers emotionally, it also offers participation in a
growing community that has the confidence to write letters and
share their stories for a better tomorrow.
MUNDO YARIS (YARIS WORLD)
Mundo Yaris is a world specifically designed for young, bi-cultural
Latinos. A world built on their core values of nontraditionalism, multiculturalism, experimentalism and creativity. There they could explore Toyota’s fresh new sub-compact, Yaris, as well as themselves.
The hub of this campaign is MundoYaris.com, a micro-world where
each campaign element – from print to promotions to events
– could be accessed. Within the first two months of launch, Yaris
went from a complete unknown to the most recognized entrylevel sub-compact among the Hispanic community, with a No. 1
market share.

SWEET WORLD
The objective was to reduce brand gaps in the Hispanic market vs.
general market in areas such as brand awareness, key attributes,
category share. This campaign illustrates how to a toddler everyday objects and surfaces can be as appealing as candy as they
explore their world. Clorox disinfecting products help mom keep
her home healthy for her children by killing germs that cause illness.
The brands featured in the campaign exceeded their category
share goals and, in one year, made significant progress against
their three-year awareness and key attributes goals.
TOMA LECHE (DRINK MILK)
The Califonia Milk Processor Board was facing negative to flat
sales. The challenge was to find a different way of looking at milk
with an audience that felt there was nothing more to milk than
calcium. The Hispanic mom was introduced to the new “Toma
Leche” campaign. The campaign showcased secret societies that
did extraordinary things thanks to the power of milk. The
campaign resulted in halting the sales’ decline and reached the
same awareness levels of the previous campaign of 11 years after
only three months.

COFFEE CUSTOMIZATION
McDonald’s launched its new coffee nationally in March. Stores
serving Hispanics in Chicago knew this was a tough sell locally.
Recently Starbucks and Dunkin’ Donuts doubled their outlets. Coffee is very important to Hispanics, a growing segment in Chicago.
The campaign objective was to increase Chicago Hispanic coffee
units and sustain them after the launch period. Creative highlighted a local initiative of adding cream and sugar. This resulted
in coffee units to Chicago Hispanics 19% higher than national
comparable stores, and the competition has tried to counter.

KNOWS FABRICS BEST
After five years without a campaign and with the brand facing
increasing competition and a consumer value issue, Tide needed
to become more relevant in the hearts and minds of women. To
achieve objectives, the brand broke away from laundry-based
conventions by showing women that Tide makes a difference in
something they truly care about – the clothes and fabrics that
touch their lives. This campaign, based around insights about women and their fabrics, introduced a modern design for the brand
and launched in TV, print, interactive and cause-related efforts.

The race to get high-speed internet subscribers was heating up;
the category was full of mud-slinging messages; and Comcast’s
product was nearly three times the cost of the competition’s. This
is the story of how Comcast entered the fray and built value for its
high-speed internet offering with advertising that disarmed and
endeared people. It not only prevented current customers from
leaving the brand but resulted in record growth in new subscribers.

the 2006 U.S. Open was a perfect platform for creating national

and critics and focus on goals. The campaign prompted increases
in web traffic, sales and brand involvement not to mention an

Something needed to be done to resuscitate the greeting card
category. The big idea: iTunes meets Hallmark. This campaign

and goofy, can help you express yourself, something Hallmark has
always done but now with a voice from the 21st century. Song
cards fueled a 10% increase in sales of everyday cards compared
to a year earlier.

LIFE LESSONS
TLC’s ad sales and ratings were down, and viewers were emotionally disconnected from the network. With the heyday of “Trading
Spaces” long gone, viewers and ad buyers weren’t sure what TLC
stood for any more. TLC needed a new identity. With this campaign,
a new lifestage and strategic platform were created that would
define the network as something more than just a TV channel.
Based on human truths, this campaign took TLC in a new direction,
revitalized the network, increased ratings and engaged viewers.

In an unusual use of outdoor, the St. Louis Cardinal/KTRS’ campaign
created a deafening buzz. After 52 years of being broadcast on
KMOX, Cardinal’s games moved to 550 KTRS, a move the new
station wanted to communicate. To do so, six pairs of sequential
outdoor boards were secured throughout the city. The lead board
was a Cardinals’ board and the following board was a KTRS board.
The message evolved throughout the campaign to create one
cohesive message between the two boards.

The unusual affinity between an “open 24 hours” promotion and
“don’t drink and drive” message afforded an opportunity for McDonald’s to demonstrate community commitment while increasing
late night store traffic. Bar coasters, free rides home in a pimped-out
cab, even Ronald’s wallet as collateral provided multiple campaign
touches in and around late night hot spots in order to reach young
adults in their “I’m lovin’ it” moments. These ideas and environments
were chosen because who needs McDonald’s more at 2 a.m. than
people in need of sobering up?

WIRESTONE
NOT EVEN ONCE
The Montana Meth Project serves one clear purpose: to discourage teens 12-17 in the state of Montana from trying meth even
once. The objectives were to help prevent first-time use while also
spurring a dialogue among the community about a meth epidemic. The campaign resulted in unprecedented awareness, a
heightened education among teens about the dangers of trying
meth even once and a dialogue that reached far beyond the
state of Montana. In fact, it has now been recognized by the White
House as a model for the nation.
REMEMBER SEGREGATION
Memory of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the civil rights struggle in
the U.S. has been fading. The goal was to revive a visceral connection to the civil rights era and engage people in the reason
for honoring the legacy of Dr. King. The solution, the world’s first
segregated advertising campaign, allows the audience to experience discrimination firsthand and feel the sting of “separate
but equal.”

BOOSTUP
To tackle the issue of dropout prevention, students needed to be
shown as potential graduates not potential dropouts. Ten at-risk
kids were given cameras to document their experiences in struggling to graduate as a tribute to their efforts to stay in school. The
reality of their stories gave this cause a real voice and identity,
increasing the chances of media coverage. The campaign exceeded its goals of generating a 400% increase in broadcast TV
media detections and tripling the amount of time teens across
America spent with the issue.

WHERE’S YOURS
Nature Valley Granola Bars launched in 1975 inventing the “betterfor-you” snack category. By 2005, Kellogg’s was nipping at Nature
Valley’s heels, and Nature Valley had to find a way to deepen its
relationship with its consumers. That way was to go beyond the
functional, natural energy benefit that Kellogg’s was encroaching
upon and elevate the brand to an emotional level. This campaign
is an inspirational call-to-action to get consumers out into their
special place in nature. Through this campaign, Nature Valley becomes the catalyst for these journeys.

the campaign re-engaged customers and inspired the key distributor
to keep Slim-Fast on shelf. Slim-Fast Optima became the best-selling
new product of 2005; sales per sku increased; and Slim-Fast stemmed
a sales decline by $81.4 million.
NO IFS, ANDS OR BUTTS
In a world of increasing demand for purer, more organic foods,
hot dogs were losing their luster. All because of an (erroneous)
consumer perception that hot dogs are made with mystery meat.
Hebrew National, a regional kosher brand, saw an opportunity to
expand the brand’s appeal to a broader audience by reassuring
moms that Hebrew National kosher franks meet, even exceed,
their standards for better eating. The story was quite simple: Only
the best cuts of meat from the best parts of the cow - “No ifs,
ands or butts.”

PEDIGREE ADOPTION DRIVE
Every year, three million dogs go into shelters but only 1.2 million
of them find homes. This campaign raised awareness of dogs in
shelters and gave consumers a way to help them. When consumers bought Pedigree products, Pedigree donated a percentage
of profits from every Pedigree product to dog shelters. As a result
of the campaign, Pedigree was able to increase sales and share
of market despite the shrinking dog food category.

LOST LITTER BOX
To create distance from competition, Fresh Step was improved by
adding carbon to enhance odor control. The campaign needed
to prove to cat owners, a skeptical target about odor control
improvements in litter, that new Fresh Step eliminated odor better
than any other litter. The idea was to demonstrate that with Fresh
Step even cats can’t smell their litter box. “Lost Litter Box” was an
unexpected way to emphasize effectiveness. Campaign results
more than doubled objectives, growing Fresh Step sales by 29%
and category share by 18% in six months.

In 2006, Cesar faced increased competition within the single-serve
segment and negative consumer perceptions of wet feeding.
Aiming to own the small dog relationship, Cesar aimed to leverage the consumer need to reciprocate the unconditional love
that small dogs give them. The campaign idea is “Love them back
with Cesar canine cuisine.” This provides a strong call to action
and positions Cesar as a way to return love. Within three months of
launch, Cesar’s awareness had doubled (IPSOS) and sales share
had reached an all–time high of 15.2% (IRI).

As the housing market went from boom to a transition market,
Century 21 needed to break through the clutter, increase brand
awareness measures over Re/Max and boost the amount of traffic
to century21.com as well as increase consumer leads to its affiliated brokers. By presenting realistic and emotional situations, this
campaign became a rallying cry. The campaign resulted in 46%
brand awareness increase, improved visitor traffic to century21.
com and increased consumer leads ranging from 185% to 224%
for the entire system of brokers.

The campaign exceeded objectives in lead generation.

WHAT WOULD YOU DO FOR A KLONDIKE BAR?
Every day, people do little things in life that surprise and delight
those around them. They deserve the big, satisfying everyday reward. They deserve the amazing taste of a Klondike bar. The objective was to revitalize the old campaign by moving away from
focusing on celebrities and their quirky behavior and instead to
position Klondike as an everyday reward for everyday people.
Change has taken root.
When you’re printing with The L. P. Thebault Company, you’re partnering with a team that is leading the graphic arts
industry in environmental stewardship. Every day, our experienced professionals are consulting with our customers in
designing and creating innovative, responsible print messages with less waste and more focus on brand.
Programs like FSC-certification through Smartwood™, membership in Ceres, and significant purchases of renewable
energy to power our presses reflect just some of the many ways in which LPT is changing, from the roots up.
LPT congratulates all of tonight’s award winners.
We salute the Effie community for recognizing ideas that work.

LISTED ON NASDAQ
It seemed that as quickly as NASDAQ’s growth fueled the dotboom, NASDAQ became the poster child for the dot-bust. By the
time this campaign launched, public companies had lost more
than half their value. And as a result, stock markets had lost substantial credibility. In perhaps one of the most significant brand
transformations of all time, NASDAQ is back stronger than ever.
Today it is perceived as the industry innovator and the better performing stock market for companies and investors alike.

IT
The very thing that made eBay famous was threatening its future
success. People saw eBay as a great place to buy hard-to-find,
collectible items but did not think of it for the more ordinary, everyday items that represented the real growth in ecommerce. Incessant pop culture references merely amplified this problem and
presented a significant perceptual hurdle for a very modest media
budget to overcome. This highly successful integrated campaign
broadened perceptions of what could be bought on eBay and
helped grow revenue twice as fast as ecommerce.

company against the giant telecom carriers and win over an apprehensive audience – in 12 weeks and while being outspent 200

over six million PR impressions and led to a 90% increase in sales.

NOT EVEN ONCE
The Montana Meth Project serves one clear purpose: to discourage teens 12-17 in the state of Montana from trying meth even
once. The objectives were to help prevent first-time use while also
spurring a dialogue among the community about a meth epidemic. The campaign resulted in unprecedented awareness, a
heightened education among teens about the dangers of trying
meth even once and a dialogue that reached far beyond the
state of Montana. In fact, it has now been recognized by the White
House as a model for the nation.

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.

Goldfish was a minnow in an ocean of snack brands. Outspent

new way to punch above its weight. Not only did the new Goldfish
campaign boost sales, but within just three months, the brand
outpaced competition by four times. Sales increased 31% vs. a
year ago in July. The new communication model helped reconnect with tweens and gain affinity.

FLAVOR DECISION ‘06
Into a fiercely-competitive ice cream category known for aggressive
price promotions, Mayfield Ice Cream launched four new flavors without the benefit of discounting – and into a freezer case flooded with
competing new flavors. To meet the challenge, the agency created a
coordinated “election” campaign of sampling, online voting and multimedia advertising.The campaign enabled Mayfield to post record sales
of the new flavors – enough to justify adding two as permanent SKUs
while maintaining overall Mayfield Ice Cream sales in a down market.

Against a backdrop of skepticism, the world’s second largest

stakes bold turf, accepts criticism and does not hide from failure.
The campaign is a landmark platform for a company trying to
change the way the world uses, and thinks about, the fuels that
are vital to human progress.

PRICELESS
In 1997 when the strategic idea for MasterCard was born, no one
could have predicted how unendingly successful the strategy
would be. But two critical events in the spring of 2006 are the most
credible evidence that “Priceless” works not only as a sustained
success of advertising excellence but also as a business tool. A rich
list of business uses shows how “Priceless” has become instrumental
to the company, an asset that helped value the company’s initial
public offering and garnered the respect and admiration of both
a corporate and consumer generation.

GOIN’ TO WORK
Winning back the hearts of disheartened Pistons fans and getting
them back in the seats seemed insurmountable after not delivering on promises of victories and all-star players. In this campaign,
fans were given active role to tie the team back to the city by
asking fans to go to work for their team.“Goin’ to work. Every night”
became a social contract with the fans. And the fans went to work,
helping the Pistons lead the NBA in attendance the last three years,
with 136 consecutive sellouts.

IT’S THE NETWORK
After years of exponential growth, the wireless category reached
maturation. While Verizon Wireless and its iconic “can you hear me
now” message secured brand leadership in voice reliability, competitors were encroaching on this positioning. Verizon upped the
ante from voice reliability to network superiority, extending the role
of the “test man” character to the “leader of the network”– a personification of the company’s technological expertise and breadth
of capabilities. Communications extended the company’s leadership beyond coverage, and the brand outperformed the competition, setting historic records in subscriber growth and loyalty.
IT’S YOUR LIFE IN THERE
While Nokia had a high level of awareness, over time the brand
began to lose momentum, experiencing declining sales and
lost meaning with consumers. The challenge was to create a
brand platform that would change the dialogue in the category
and reverse the downward trend. This campaign did just that.
It brought to life a new consumer truth and was delivered in a
way that consumers could connect with. The result: dramatic
changes in brand perception and an immediate share lift after
seven down quarters.

FLIP TO MEXICO
For years, Flip the dolphin (one of the talking animals on Frontier’s
plane tails) was sent to frigid Chicago. But all that changed when
Flip publicly declared: “I either go to Mexico, or I quit!” The ensuing
four-week campaign (which ended during Superbowl XL) showed
all of Colorado rallying for Flip – with mock newscasts, staged
protests, 18 TV spots, podcasts, an underground website, online
petition and blog. The campaign turned fake news into real news,
creating a groundswell of support for Flip, while blurring the line
between reality and fiction.

AMPLIFICATION
As JetBlue continues to grow aggressively, the airline’s key challenge is to get bigger without becoming “jet big.” The campaign
needed to restore JetBlue’s sense of momentum and leadership
(internally and externally) and support exponential growth without
a significant increase in budget, while adhering to JetBlue’s sense
of value. The campaign not only supported record traffic at launch
and reversed declines in momentum and leadership, it created
an invaluable pool of re-useable brand assets that continue to
be deployed to date.
THE HOTEL EXPERT
As a brand under siege and losing momentum, hotels.com had
lost its competitive edge as the “cheapest place to book online.”
The big idea was to reposition hotels.com as the only online travel
brand truly expert in booking the best hotel room. This overarching idea became part of an integrated campaign that helped
increase traffic to the site by 16% and gross bookings by 33%.

In an effort to dispel consumers’ misperceptions about what
cruising is like, this campaign used an upcoming launch of Royal
Caribbean’s newest and most innovative ship, Freedom of the
Seas, to help consumers understand that cruising is not just for the
newlywed, over-fed and nearly dead. The campaign to support
the ship’s launch leveraged multiple offline and online channels
to bring the news of this innovative ship to consumers. Results were
beyond expectations, making this the most successful ship launch
in Royal Caribbean’s 38-year history.

of U.S. tourists, the country’s booming economy had put costs
on par with major destinations and prospective tourists were
concerned there was not enough to do. Also, there were fewer
Americans with a direct Irish connection to be leveraged. This
campaign promoted unexpected activities, with a personal touch,
that contributed to 650,000 people visiting Ireland in the first eight
months of 2006, 9% more than the previous year and twice the
number for the rest of the European Union.
