A Big Win: Corpus Christi
|
| We have some exciting news to share: MMGY won AOR for Corpus Christi, Texas, VCB! Situated on the Gulf Coast, Corpus Christi and its neighboring islands are a beach draw for the entire state of Texas. We provided a creative framework around the idea of "Coast like a Texan." In essence, it was a way for them to own not only the Texas coast but also what it means "to coast." The pitch was a first in that it relied on the entire creative team, while we also brought in Rachel Stelmach for strategic planning and guidance. Everyone did a great job joining forces quickly to come up with the idea and resulting executions in a week. Congratulations to all team members who played a part to win the business.

Don't forget to vote!
|
Election Day is a little over two weeks away, and many of you have already begun voting. As you know, one of our core values is Empowerment – so if you're exercising your right to vote, the Culture Crew wants to know about it! We encourage all U.S. employees to post a photo or video to your social channels using the #MMGYVotes hashtag on or before Election Day on November 3.
Our goal is to promote the benefit and power of voting and not make a political statement, so please use discretion and common sense when using the #MMGYVotes hashtag or tagging @MMGYGlobal on your channels.
Also, please take some time to review our new 2020 Go-To Voter Guide, courtesy of Sarika Chawla, Laura Swearengin and the Culture Crew. This all-in-one guide should answer all of your questions about voter eligibility, important state-by-state deadlines and how to research down-ballot candidates in your community. |
