philosophy gives love

WSITS developed a microsite and Facebook mini-application around the concept of giving love. Using the inspirational qualities of the parent brand, we approached the target audience emotionally and implemented technology solutions for users to make heartfelt connections with each other, including a blog, an Imeem music player and bazaarvoice “stories.” In addition, we created a series of designer love letters intended to update the aesthetics of old world letter-writing with a technological twist.

Project Miracle/Art of Grace

Project Miracle is a social entrepreneurial business model designed to produce marketing platforms and goods for consumer brands that donate 100 percent of their net proceeds to the non-profits they serve. WSITS provides the technical expertise and consulting on all web work related to Project Miracle (projectmiracle.com) and its precursor, Art of Grace (artofgrace.com), including the development of Facebook applications and custom Facebook profile pages. To date, two “Project Miracles” have been launched from the platform: the “changing room” book and iPad application (net profits go to the Joyful Heart Foundation); and She Colors My Day (net proceeds go to Susan G. Komen for the Cure and Entertainment Industry Foundation Womens’ Cancer Research Fund). For She Colors My Day, WSITS launched a Facebook application that urged users to share a pink crayon, which brings messages about Women’s cancer to the masses. In the first five months, nearly 120,000 pink crayons were shared between Facebook friends. Read More

Taylor Swift Sing to Win Karaoke

In order to promote Verizon FiOS and a Taylor Swift concert tour, WSITS created a contest platform that allowed users to upload a karaoke video of themselves singing a Taylor Swift song. Visitors to the site could view the videos, forward them to a friend and vote on the video they liked best. The videos shuffled randomly to give all contestants a fair shot at appearing on the first page of entrants. The videos auto-played when the site opened. Read More

TV Choice

Verizon wanted to offer its FiOS TV service to New Jersey residents, but the state’s laws required cable companies to negotiate with individual municipalities for the right to deliver TV service. The company approached Winning Strategies to develop a grassroots mobilizaiton effort to education consumers about the issue and provide them tools to support the cause of TV choice. Through a “Take Action” component on TVChoiceNJ.com, consumers were guided through simple steps to contact their state and local representatives regarding the issue. Registrants were kept up to date with a weekly e-newsletter. A password-protected section provided information customized for mayors and legislators. Read More

Ultimate Eye Candy

Verizon wanted to create a buzz before introducing its FiOS TV service to New Jersey consumers. WSITS presented the Ultimate Eye Candy online game show, a reality-based program that married elements of popular TV shows: homemade videos, celebrity judges and viewer participation through video upload and voting. Participants could upload videos describing their ultimate eye candy or attend an event where street teams filmed videos. On ultimateeyecandy.com, visitors could view the videos and vote for their favorites. “Survivor” contestant Stephenie Lagrossa was one of three celebrity judges who responded comically to each video. The contest ran for six weeks before the announcement that it was sponsored by Verizon. Read More
