Superbowl ad hype has come and gone, but some buzz-worthiness lives far beyond.


What caught my eye

I’m sure you all have your favorite spots from the heart-breaking, gut-wrenching, agonizing game (Sorry, Niner fan here). Mine was the Dunkings. When Tom Brady is only your fourth celebrity in the ad, that’s going large. Great use of celebrities, great extensions beyond a one-off ad all the way to a new menu, totally integrated effort including not just one ad, but a playlist of videos.

When you gotta go big, go huge. Kudos to Matt Damon and Ben Affleck’s team at Artists Equity and the marketing team responsible for this massive effort.

On a personal note

Sarah and her husband Chris have their own wine label, Gros Ventre Cellars. They just received some amazing scores from Antonio Galloni – 97 points for their 2021 First Born Pinot Noir, 96 points for their Campbell Ranch Pinot Noir, and 95+ for Baranoff Pinot Noir.

Check out the reviews here. And while you’re at, order a few bottles 😉

We want to take a moment to thank those who participated in our rebranding survey. We totally understand how busy life is and appreciate your taking the time.

Like many creatives, I’ve resisted my fair share of research. But as I became a lot wiser (and a little older) I began recognize its important. We are absorbing all the great responses and are getting to work on what’s next.

If you wanted to respond to our survey, but didn’t get a chance – click here and let us know your thoughts.
