York Region Public Health had long offered free health services to residents of York Region, but the public barely used the services because it had no idea who York Region Public Health was or what the division did. The healthcare provider was internally fragmented – four departments ran independently of each other, with inconsistent messaging and visual DNA, confusing the public and rendering YRPH invisible.

How

  • The boldness set the personality’s tone of voice

  • Life size spokesperson (Regi) was proposed to bring to life strong approachable brand recognition

  • An integrated geo- and behavioral-targeted campaign was developed

  • Photography taken in well-known locations of community for community to create a sense of familiarity

  • A combination of traditional and emerging media was crafted to effectively reach all age groups

Photography limited: installation completed just prior to Covid 19 pandemic. We have not been able to enter Canada
since then to photograph completed work.  Woodbine was required to close its facilities during the pandemic which put a hold on completion of design. We hope to finish in 2022.

How

  • Revitalizing the Mohawk brand by establishing a family-friendly atmosphere with bright lights, exciting & tastefully contemporary designs. Bold tones create flow from the entrance to the trackside bar and patio. Gone are the Art Deco stereotypical racetrack graphics. To satisfy todays immediate gratification society we needed to implement responsive marketing efforts. Pure, high-energy uncomplicated excitement was needed to change the off-track experience.

  • Stand alone Kiosk betting stations to be placed in key hi-viz traffic areas.  

  • New restaurant experience with farm-to-table menu at the Mohawk Harvest Kitchen to entice family dinning. 

  • Revised food and beverage stations proposed Mohawk Brand Craft Beer.

  • Customer support areas through way-finding kiosks, even the flags in the parking lots were re-designed.

NutritionHouseLogo.jpg

Nutrition House is Canada's leading Natural Health Product franchise. Founded in 1979 as a family business, NH began franchising in 1993, extending our commitment to the health of Canadians nationwide. Today, NH operates over 45 retail stores, located in high profile shopping centres across Canada, and in the USA.

Their products include national brands of vitamins, supplements, body care and sports nutrition products, as well as exclusive nutrition house extra products, and co-branded extra-value products, packaged exclusively for nutrition house by national brand suppliers.

Nutrition House and TMC / INCITE group was tasked with providing vendors national exposure to secure competitive pricing, while giving franchise stores support by driving local store traffic. The drastically changing competitive landscape shrank media budgets as vendors allocated their dollar commitments to big box stores, large national grocery chains and online efforts. 

How

  • Developed smaller campaigns to provide vendors with cost-efficient (smaller investment) digital programs that met national reach requirements 

  • Developed numerous campaigns to provide NH with consistent in-market presence throughout the year 

  • Purchased social media and online geo-targeted to store locations, meeting national reach requirement, while driving local store traffic for franchisees 

  • Created a community of followers, (target audience - Women age 30-50) averaging a 24.07% (OR) open rate over all online campaigns

Catalina Health.jpg

Catalina Health provides big pharma companies with a very targeted approach to reach their exclusive audience. Catalina Health targets health consumers at the pharmacy level, so they can encourage them to adhere to their medication. 


Big pharma can also cross promote by targeting health consumers (for example) that suffer from a heart condition with a new and improved prescription.
 

Consumer Packaged Goods can cross promote at the pharmacy level by promoting low fat snacks to those with heart conditions. Catalina Health has the data and insights so that brands can pin point their marketing. You can’t get better targeting.

Research

Market research confirmed that the Catalina Health Resource (CHR) 
brand is perceived as dated and irrelevant.

 

The audience clearly wants Catalina to:

  • Be more innovative

  • Improve its technology

  • Enhance overall value

  • Become more consultative

Here’s how they feel about your brand:

… some messages are getting stale…

… lack ‘attention-gettingness’…

… kind of static and boring…

… look is too subdued and should be jazzed up…

… some of it feels antiquated…

BRAND ENLIGHTENING
 

This rebrand positioned Catalina Health as a knowledgeable guide 
ready to lead clients down the path of discovery and enlightenment 
to help them engage brilliantly with health consumers. 
It evokes powerful feelings of trust, wisdom, insight and the 
promise of good things to come.
 

What make this concept especially compelling is the symbiotic relationship between things created in nature and those made 
by man. The man-made lights make the path through the dim woods more visible. Catalina Health can draw the same parallel. Utilizing 
a man-made database with over 150 million household IDs, Catalina provides illuminating insights into health consumers that enables highly-personalized messaging to spark positive changes in 
human behavior.
