The holiday season is go time for The Grommet and Cyber Weekend is especially big. They needed a way to pierce the promotion and discount noise and frame them as a place for gifts you don’t normally see. Mike and the creative time created a series of social videos that highlighted the product quickly, framed the Grommet as a destination for gifts, and had fun with tying each to a moment the viewer might be experiencing.

In total, the 5-part campaign yielded 150k+ views, 10k engagements, & 1k unique visitors across social.
