Spinergy
Our challenge was to launch a $10 Yomega yo-yo in a traditionally under $5 category. Our spin: Yomega has new technology that makes yo-yoing easier, helping new yo-yoers feel less lame, maybe even cool. Our goal was to help Bandai sell a ton of Yomega Yo-Yos through the second half of 1998.

Walk 'N Talk Pals Campaign
Tyco Preschool had set forth very ambitious goals for the introduction of Walk 'N Talk Pals. In order to claim success, the campaign needed to be intrusive and breakthrough the TV toy advertising clutter. The spot needed to capture the attention of moms and drive purchase intent in the highly competitive preschool category. Our strategy was to convince moms that with Walk 'N Talk Pals, they can bring the a part of Sesame Street home.

Shut Eye
The Sing n' Snore Ernie marketing success story in 1997 in truly noteworthy when one considers just a year earlier, Moms all across the U.S. purchased a cute, cuddly Sesame Street licensed plush toy named Tickle Me Elmo. The sales results speak for themselves. However, the true measure of Sing n' Snore Ernie's 1997 performance on Tyco Preschool will be realized long after the sales numbers have been forgotten. Two consecutive years-first Elmo and now Ernie-of Marketing might have not only legitimized the Tyco Preschool brand in the eyes of the consumer, but far more importantly have legitimized it in the eyes of the trade/retailer. Tyco Preschool's proven track record has catapulted the toy company into the ' big leagues' along side brands like Fisher Price, Playschool and Little Tykes.
