CP+B Gets Sweet for WeMo

CP+B has just launched the first ever marketing campaign for home automation company WeMo, taking aim at viewer’s sweet sides with a 60-second broadcast spot.

The spot, entitled “The Big Anniversary Rig” tells the story of a couple separated on their first wedding anniversary. To celebrate, the husband sets up an “anniversary rig” using WeMo’s automation, surprising the wife when she gets home with a series of romantic gestures accomplished using WeMo. Depending on your tolerance for sweetness, the spot may or may not be overly saccharine, but it’s a clever way to show WeMo in an emotional context. “The Big Anniversary Rig” debuted online today, prompting viewers to watch three separate “How Dan Did It” videos. It will make its broadcast debut on network television next month. (more…)

Domino’s Thanks 8 Million Facebook Fans By Knocking Over…Dominoes

50,328 dominoes, to be exact. How’d they do it? With seven Domino Experts (cool, yet random), 1 protege (not as cool, more random), and “top secret domino stackers.” Can we just stop for a second and talk about the Domino Experts? They all look like older versions of kids from the Diary of a Wimpy Kid trilogy, and I’ve never even seen those movies.

Putting together this appreciative gesture took 120 hours of labor. However–I hate to do this–there’s a grammatical error. The “We Like You Too” should actually read, “We Like You, Too.” They never said the Domino Experts were Punctuation Masters.

No word yet on what Domino’s will do for their 163,000 Twitter followers, but let’s hope the protege becomes the eighth Domino Master whenever that time comes. CP+B credits after the jump.
