How we unwrapped the sweet spot on the world’s favorite Ham.

Client: 

The HoneyBaked Ham Company

Problem: 

Since 1957, HoneyBaked had a featured place at the table for special family occasions. But when HoneyBaked’s patent for spiral-sliced hams expired, the company saw more competition and a decline in market share. The company asked Brogan & Partners to reintroduce the HoneyBaked brand to a newer, Internet generation while maintaining their loyal customer base.

Solution: 

Optimizing a 21st century marketing strategy and tapping into the strong emotional connection families have for the beloved HoneyBaked brand, we found the sweet spot. Our four year marketing effort has resulted increased holiday web traffic by over 104%, increased coupon redemptions, a 3700% growth in VIP customer email database, and increased sales despite the down economy.

How we kept gamblers from losing it all.

Client: 

Michigan Department of Community Health

Problem: 

As gambling continued to become more available in the state, the Michigan Department of Community Health was looking for a way to reach people with potential gambling problems. MDCH wanted to offer confidential, 24-hour counseling support for those who gamble more than they can afford to lose.

Solution: 

We created a dramatic and emotional campaign that included television, print and interactive rich media. Our expandable rich media alone generated over 1.2 million impressions in less than six months, and an average expansion rate of 6.44%, considerably higher than the industry average of 1.6%.

How a Comcast microsite enlightened Chicago.

Client: 

Comcast-Chicago

Problem: 

Comcast was in the throes of launching new products and battling major competitors for market leadership. Brogan was to amplify Comcast's traditional advertising campaign to include interactive digital and establish a brand presence with a hard-to-reach, web-savvy target audience.

Solution: 

We created the guru campaign to help guide consumers on the path to technological enlightenment. With over 23,000 visitors, the guru microsite captivated potential customers with Comcast's "Triple Play" product benefits and persuaded them to convert to the brand. Comcast retained its dominant leadership in the Chicago market.

How a fuel dispenser company pumped up a new image.

Client: 

Gilbarco Veeder-Root

Problem: 

Long a leader in the gas "dispensing" industry, Gilbarco Veeder-Root was also a leader in technology. While the company itself had unmatched convenience store expertise and innovative, comprehensive products, their image hadn't caught up. We needed to establish a clear brand for Gilbarco.

Solution: 

We brought a human touch to technology through direct mail, advertising, collateral material, interactive tools and a microsite. The consistent brand campaign helped them exceed sales forecasts and secured them the technology leadership position. International affiliates are now adopting the brand.

How our treatment was just what the doctor ordered.

Client: 

Michigan State Medical Society (MSMS)

Problem: 

We needed to increase positive awareness of the Michigan State Medical Society and its benefits by spreading the word to young, hospital-employed doctors, current MSMS members and medical practice office managers, that MSMS is the longstanding, reputable organization that protects physicians and the future of their profession.

Solution: 

We created and produced a full-fledged brand campaign complete with print, interactive, e-Blasts, microsite and posters. The creative executions featured smart, attention-getting visuals and messages that engaged and enchanted the target audiences in the medical community.

How we doctored up a physician recruitment campaign.

Client: 

Oakland County Medical Society

Problem: 

Oakland County Medical Society needed a marketing partner that could support their long-term mission as the "voice of physicians of Oakland County." We had to develop consistent, branded strategies that increased young physician membership while retaining established physicians, all on a tight budget.

Solution: 

We created a new, vibrant brand that included a logo, theme line, facebook engagement ads, lounge posters and eBlasts to doctors, linking them to the recruitment microsite. There were over 400 visitors to the site within one month of the launch and very positive feedback from physicians.

How the seed of a great brand idea took root.

Client: 

Molina Healthcare

Problem: 

Molina, a Medicaid and Medicare health insurance provider, was growing quickly across the country. We needed to create a brand to unite and position Molina competitively in the national market space and connect Molina with the communities they serve.

Solution: 

We found that Molina's key differentiator was in the roots of its family heritage, and the legacy of Dr. Molina. We positioned Molina as your extended family by including internal employees for photos and using a family tree visual. The campaign significantly increased membership growth and internal morale.

How we led seniors to the fountain of youth.

Client: 

LifeSecure

Problem: 

LifeSecure was a new company launched by Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan. There was a lot of confusion about long-term care insurance, and many didn't know what it was. We needed to launch the LifeSecure company and educate customers on the need for and benefits of this kind of insurance.

Solution: 

We created an integrated campaign with a website, brochures, tradeshow signage and giveaways to convince consumers that LifeSecure is the only long-term care insurance that would create a simple and worry-free future. We received a very positive internal response, in addition to positive feedback from the agent community.

How we got the Blues in buff shape.

Client: 

Blue Care Network

Problem: 

The Blue Care Network (BCN) developed Healthy Blue Living, a plan that encouraged individuals to lead healthier lives. We needed to promote the plan's innovation, position BCN as a leader in preventive healthcare, and reinforce the connection between BCN and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan.

Solution: 

We developed print, radio, outdoor and interactive materials that showed real people in real situations. Plan membership grew from 50,000 to almost 75,000 after the campaign launch, and membership reached the 100,000 milestone in 2009. The Michigan campaign won the coveted Best of Blue Award, beating out Blues across the country.

How we made it easy to put your heart into organ donation.

Client: 

Gift of Life Michigan

Problem: 

People think organ donation is a good cause, but they’re too busy or unaware of how to register or the need to register. To increase organ donor registrants, we needed to emphasize immediate action and turn organ donation into a community movement.

Solution: 

We created an interactive widget with a video, heart-moving testimonials, links and a ticker to increase the urgency to register now. In addition, we developed a social media program with The HoneyBaked Ham Company, and a map showing county percentages to build interest in the campaign. All assets pointed to a Donor Drive 2010 landing page with sharing opportunities throughout the page. Throughout the course of the campaign, the widget was installed over 1,000 times and generated nearly 900,000 views. 2010 was a record-breaking year for donor registries with over 319,000 new registrants added to the list.
