4. Target Spring Brrrrreak
One of Target’s brand promises is to
constantly find new, exciting ways to
surprise and delight the public. So, after
two years of executing successful Spring
Break events for the retail giant, they told
us they were throwing in the towel, unless
we could come up with an idea so delight-
fully original they couldn’t say “no.” So we
came up with a very cool idea – the FIRST
ICE RINK on the BEACH ever.
It was a Target winter wonderland on the
beach. Students came in droves to skate,
play games, sample Target’s Archer Farms
snacks and freshen-up with grooming
essentials from Unilever and Axe.
Results
Target was the coolest destination on the
beach that summer, touching over 50,000
college students with their “Expect More”
brand message and partner sampling. The
event also triggered an avalanche of press
and promotional radio exposure.

O’Brien himself. Targeted at affluent, tech-
savvy CONAN fans, the tour stopped at
high-traffic retail locations, sporting events,
street festivals and concerts in 18 markets.
Fans lined up for the chance to create
personalized “I’M WITH CONAN” buttons
