Cramer-Krasselt - Chicago, Illinois

To mark the roll-out of its much anticipated addition to the family, Porsche Cars North America unveiled an integrated campaign via Cramer-Krasselt/Chicago to introduce the first Porsche four-seat sports car, the Panamera. To distinguish the Panamera from the competition and appeal to enthusiasts as well as potential newcomers, C-K and Porsche leveraged one of the brand’s most valuable assets—its heritage and history. The ‘Welcome to the Family’ campaign includes television, print, a new interactive website (www.porscheusa.com/family), mobile, direct mail, dealer materials, online ads and website takeovers, as well as an IFC documentary.

MGM Grand Las Vegas is taking the guilt out of sinning with a Twitter social media initiative – “Get Rewarded for Your Sins.” Developed by C-K/Phoenix, the promotion aims to engage potential visitors, increase followers on MGM Grand’s Twitter page and drive home the “Experience Maximum Vegas” positioning. Tweeters are encouraged to confess their sins for a chance to win a free-night’s stay. Follow the “sin stream” on their Twitter feed or at http://www.mgmgrandsins.com. To get the word out, MGM Grand utilized Facebook, Twitter, mobile devices and e-blasts, as well as out-of-home wall projections in the Los Angeles market.
