A sign of things too dumb. If you’re from the Cincinnati area you are probably familiar with Tire Discounters’ iconic copy signs. I’ve included a few of my contributions as a copy-sign-writer. Some of the executions were used in a digital space and others were implemented outside of stores.

Tire Discounters Bathroom RebrandDuring my time with Brandominium I wrote copy for several in-store promotional materials. For this project, the objective was to rebrand Tire Discounters’ bathroom area. The goal was to be consistent with the brand voice and maintain a humorous tone. Take a pee peak.

TDTVThese pieces are from an ongoing project for which I was responsible. The task was to create a presentation for projection on the televisions in the lobby of Tire Discounters’ stores. The solution: TDTV. I have included a few slides from the more-than 40 slide presentation.

Each month I updated the presentation with new images and copy to highlight seasonal reminders and new deals or promotions. I created the original presentation and used it as a base for each month’s updates. Upon client approval the presentation was distributed to Tire Discounters’ stores and looped on the televisions in the lobby. I am responsible for all of the body copy and design.

endlessly inspired.NSAC 2013 - GliddenChallenge: Utilize traditional and non-traditional media channels appropriately in an attempt to position Glidden Brilliance Collection as a quality and affordable brand in the mind of consumers. Drive consumers to purchase the Glidden Brilliance Collection that is sold exclusively at Walmart.

Solution: An advertorial that I created to run in targeted magazines during our campaign. Our print campaign used an advertorial to cultivate a more authentic connection with the target audiences. The decision to create an advertorial was based on the insights of our research. Our campaign creative was designed to build awareness and drive traffic to MyColortopia.com and the Glidden mobile app. The ad’s aesthetic highlights the use of Glidden’s exclusive “MyColortopia,” website. On the website a user can upload a picture and use the, “My Image Inspiration,” tool to find Glidden paint options that match the colors in the photo. Thus is the idea behind the creative aesthetic utilized in the campaign. It is easily modified to tailor to necessary target audiences and the publication in which it is dispersed. I was responsible for design and copy. The creative aesthetic is consistent with that of each component of our campaign.

Result: Although this campaign was spec and was not published, it was a crucial part of our campaigns book and presentation. Our efforts earned us the District 5 National Student Advertising Competition championship, and a trip to Phoenix for AdMerica 2013 to compete with the other national finalists.

Gibson BillboardsI created the following billboard executions as part of my curriculum during my undergraduate study at University of Kentucky.

Challenge: Create new bilboard executions that perpetuate the message or idea of a pre-existing and Obie-award-winning campaign.

Solution: The billboard designs I created fit the theme of the campaign that was originally used. The campaign I chose draws a parallel between a powerful yet seemingly unrelated image and a Gibson guitar. When the unrelated image is juxtaposed to the Gibson guitar, a parallel can be drawn between the two. The guitar embodies the spirit of the image displayed. I am responsible for the copy and design of my executions. My executions include text in order to resonate with consumers easily.

Result: This project is spec and was not published, although I recieved exemplary marks for my efforts.

Goldfish Print Ads

I created the following print ad executions as part of my curriculum during my undergraduate study at University of Kentucky. I am responsible for all of the copy and design of these ads. These ads are spec and were not published.

Challenge: Choose a pre-existing campaign and decipher the unique selling point of the product that is promoted by the ad. Draft two new print ad executions that logically fit into the overall campaign for the brand. The ads must be appropriate for the same audience targeted for the initial ad. Each ad should have no less than 40 words of copy and no more than 70.

Solution: The original ad (unavailable) emphasizes the positive, healthy aspects of Goldfish snacks. My executions continue to perpetuate the idea that Goldfish is a convenient and healthy alternative to sweets or snacks that require preparation. Each ad also emphasizes the all-natural ingredients used to make Goldfish snacks. The ads are targeted at the primary reader of “Parenting,” magazine. I used the MRI+ tool, “Mediamark Reporter,” to draft an audience profile for the typical reader of “Parenting,” magazine, and I tailored my ads accordingly.

Result: This project is spec and was not published, although I recieved exemplary marks for my efforts.

Client: Pepperidge Farm (Goldfish)

Acting natural is easy when you’re 100 percent authentic. Gold�sh snacks are made of 100 percent real ingredients. That’s right, no arti�cial preservatives or added �avors. Our bold �avor and ability to maintain our reputation as a healthy, trans-fat free alternative to other snacks is what separates us from all the other �sh in the sea.

Gold�sh have been droppin’ jaws since 1962, naturally. All puns intended.

Page 13: Bryan O'Loughlin's Copywriting Portfolio

Amidst a sea of sugary, preservative-�lled snacks, it can be hard to �nd a treat that is as healthy as it is tasty, but Gold�sh are just that. With real cheese baked into each cracker, you don’t have to worry

about the authenticity of this after-school special. Quality by the handful since 1962.
