3-6-9, damn it’s time… for some new work with Cologuard and Lil Jon! We’re crunked out of our minds with the launch of our new campaign featuring Lil Jon and a remix of his all-time banger “Get Low.” We wrote and recorded new lyrics. We shot a full-length music video. We asked Lil Jon to rap with a toilet. All in the name of spreading awareness about the importance of screening for colon cancer, the easier way, with Cologuard – an FDA-approved, non-invasive, at-home colon cancer screening test. All you gotta do is poop, ship and screen. 💩🧻🎶 Visit Getlow2.com to learn more. Collette Lee, Tara C., Gravity Well Studio, Exact Sciences

Our new fully integrated campaign for Kretschmar Deli Meats and Cheeses – “Made for More” – launched with a tongue-in-cheek, anti-sandwich message to “Stop just making sandwiches”. Celebrating the idea of going places that no deli meat has gone before. In other words, beyond sliced bread. And rounding out with recipe inspiration that actually inspires you. No sandwich-heavy food shots. No expected recipes. No basic sliced bread. Because while every other deli brand might be made for a sandwich – Kretschmar is made for more.

1,498 putts were hit in the office in search of inspiration for our new work for Golf Pride. We’d say it was worth the effort.
