“Thanks, I Needed That” campaign Mennen
From the classic film line from Robert Stack in “The High and the Mighty” to John Belushi in Animal House to countless skits on Saturday Night Live, the phrase “Thanks, I Needed That” has worked its way into the American lexicon. The high point of the campaign was waiting at ringside for the victor of the Ali-Frazier flight with a check for $1 million from Mennen Skin Bracer for the winner to slap himself silly.

“A Mind is a Terrible Thing to Waste” campaign United Negro College Fund
This award-winning campaign started as an intra-office memo at Young & Rubicam and went on to be voted one of the five most memorable advertising lines of all time by the readers of Yahoo and USA Today, earning it a place on the Madison Avenue Advertising Walk of Fame. It also wound up being quoted (or misquoted) by politicians (Dan Quayle) and spinoffs alike. This campaign has raised more than $12 billion.

“Chow, Chow, Chow” campaign Purina
Cat lovers everywhere took an instant liking to this campaign and gave Purina Cat Chow a whopping 73% of the dry cat food market.
The filmatic trick of winding and rewinding the footage as the hero cat walked toward the camera was not the hard part–it was getting the cats to walk in a straight line. The phrase is indeed appopriate for expressing a difficult task.

“Cool American” campaign Coca-Cola Classic
Perhaps one of the best known campaigns to never run. The Cool American campaign has been featured in the New York Times, Adrants, Advertising Age and the Wall Street Journal. It has been credited as starting the trend of what is now referred to as Open Source Marketing by the New York Times.
The campaign was adapted by Coca-Cola for their Sprite Brands in the Asia/Pacific Market.

“Mitsubishi Next” campaign Mitsubishi Motors, USA
As the lowest selling Japanese automotive nameplate in America, Mitsubishi underwent a devastating management upheaval, a dealer revolt and a budget slash. All of these events happened with less than six months to go for the introduction of the first new Eclipse model in seven years. This campaign was developed to reinstill confidence in those wonderful folks who brought you the WWII Zero Fighter Plane and were now on the verge of their own crash and burn.

“Be Your Own Network” campaign Kajeet
Kajeet. Sounds like the wife of an Al-Qaeda operative. But no, it’s a new wireless phone company targeted to the tween market.
Kajeet came to GASP to make them appear “cool” to one of the most elusive segments in the youth culture. Be Your Own Network was a roadmap to how a tween social butterfly could convert her contacts into customers as an “agent” for this tween-centric must-have.

“Automated Home” campaign LG Electronics
As the second largest consumer electronics manufacturer in Korea, LG was ready to take its place on the stage as a global brand.
This campaign was the first step in positioning LG as a technology leader and product innovator. The cell-phone activated home automation business provided the perfect opportunity.

Voice Internet launch brochures TeleCenter
Even big ideas have to start someplace. “The Voice Internet” is a big idea that GASP helped start small. Direct response marketing seeded their B-to-B target audience in test market. Once the proof-of-concept had been established, the products were ready for prime time.
An entire generation of voice-activated web-based applications was brought on-line for a fraction of the costs normally associated with beta stage implementation.
