Brief | When the world turns to texts, social posts and emails, how do you make a 111-year-old greeting card company relevant again?

It had tech journalists and geeks scratching their heads. They all crammed into a showroom to discover that the device was...a card. Still the most powerful device for making meaningful human connection. |

Synopsis | While the world turns to texts, social posts and emails to communicate, how do you make a 111-year-old greeting-card company relevant again? By repositioning the greeting card as a brand new device and launching it at CES, the world’s largest consumer technology trade show. We called it a “Device Like No Other” and teased it out with a slick video that left millennial gearheads and tech journalists guessing. We positioned our mystery product as the thinnest, most powerful communication device that would be sure to give reporters something to write home about. And when we unveiled that it was just a card, we displayed it in a showroom you’d expect from any other tech giant. Only there wasn’t any bit of tech in sight. We used Nick Offerman to unveil the big surprise: the most powerful device for making meaningful human connection was just a simple greeting card. The whole campaign earned over 383 million impressions and tens of thousands shares worldwide as we put American Greetings into a cultural conversation that delivered purpose through actions. |
