Challenge 
Caterpillar has always been known for its large, high-end, earthmoving equipment. So when they expanded their line with a series of compact vehicles marketed to small contractors, Caterpillar came to us.
 

Solutions

Our team first developed a series of simple, graphic ads with the compact vehicles juxtaposed to the larger equipment in creative ways against a yellow backdrop.​ We expanded the campaign by featuring compact equipment next to reflective surfaces showing their reflections as their larger ancestors.

​

Based on our success with the compact division we were rewarded work for the larger equipment division.

 

We also led, built and executed the promotion for the American Chopper series in which they designed and built a Cat Chopper.  

 

We produced several pre-show teaser tactics. When the bike was completed we created several in-store posters, inserts, ads, and a website page featuring a 360 degree view of the Cat Chopper. As an added plus we were given the opportunity to design and direct the graphics for the truck that took the bike on tour.

​

The results were staggering. Sales increased by 80% during that period, dealers were energized by being directly involved in the promotion and it set the stage for future joint marketing efforts.
