Targeted Vertical Advertising and PR Campaign Spotlights Industry Leadership #904
When a European trade commission sought to raise visibility within the U.S. for its member companies in the technical and industrial markets, it relied on G&S for sector experience and creative expertise. The client’s own previous advertising and media relations efforts that focused on mainstream business media had fallen short of business objectives. G&S formed a strategy and executed a tactical campaign based on an integrated advertising and PR program that was rolled out in vertical trade publications and media outlets. The campaign was woven together by a tagline, visuals and copy that showcased the sweeping growth potential of the businesses represented by the trade commission.

Brochure Clarifies Conversations Between Sales Force and Customers #1104
A leading agribusiness needed a new brochure to familiarize growers and retailers with the advantages of its brands on a wide variety of crops, including soybean, corn, rice, sorghum andwheat. However, the extensive benefits could potentially be overwhelming, and each crop required its own set of applicable product information. G&S had to determine a collateral design solution that would facilitate the education of the client’s target audience in different U.S. regions. The result was an attractive, informative vehicle that helped the client’s sales force engage effectively with its customer base at trade shows, distribution outlets and retail locations.
