On the heels of a wildly popular multi-spot advertising campaign, Proctor and Gamble’s Old Spice and its Brand Manager have been named Marketer of the Year by AdWeek. For decades the company attempted to reconcile an outdated brand identity and a fresh, young audience, while competing with edgier new brands like Axe, which emphasizes sexual appeal in their branding messages. However, with their 2010 campaign, Old Spice managed to appeal to the sense of humor of male cologne-wearers, and the lust of female cologne buyers. In the process, they reinvented iconic brand elements, transforming old to experienced, clipper ships to yachts, and sailors to spokesman Isaiah Mustafa, clad in white pants, for an effective brand update that remained true to their nautical roots.

With the increasing significance of the Internet in marketing schemes, it is more important than ever to maintain a prominent online presence. Developing and implementing a sophisticated SEO strategy can enhance your firm’s visibility, improving search results and driving traffic to your site. A deep investigation into your firm’s most effective and descriptive keywords can lead to better page titles and URLs, while additional resources, such as Google’s directory and Place pages, are also important factors in search engine algorithms. Search engine optimization can be a complicated process, but with some effort, you can improve your site’s search-ability to gain new clients and grow your business. The team at Articulation Agency also provides guidance and assistance with SEO marketing, as well as a full range of branding, marketing, and online public relations services.

Articulation recently completed a campaign of press and promotional materials supporting CORNUTI, an exhibit designed to bring together four different artistic mediums. The event, hosted by the Lux Art Institute, celebrated K. Brunini Jewels’ unique designs, and featured another Articulation client, singer-songwriter Marc Robillard, a performance art fire dancer, and Lux artist-in-residence Timothy Horn. The team employed design, copywriting, and online and social marketing efforts as part of a cross-client promotional strategy to generate awareness and anticipation for the event. The affair, which occurred in late summer, was overwhelming success.
