Last weekend, the LAUNCH crew packed up their sunscreen and headed down south to Panama City for some fun in the sun. Well, some fun and a bit of work at Captain Punch Beard’s Party Plank event hosted by Sour Punch and created by LAUNCH.

In this uncertain economy, consumers have tightened their belts, making fewer shopping trips and spending less per trip than before the recession. As shoppers make fewer large, planned trips, their basket sizes and rings decrease, and store brands become an increasingly attractive cost-saving option, brands should look to providing consumers with deals to establish loyalty, drive sales and generate buzz.
This week Forbes Online, which dubs itself as providing “Information for the World’s Business Leaders,” has released their list of the nation’s top 100 “Most And Least Reputable Big Companies,” and two of LAUNCH’s clients are on the “Most Reputable” list. We are proud to be working with Sara Lee and ConAgra Foods, companies which should be commended for being enterprising enough to provide a trustworthy and ethical experience for consumers while continuing to provide their quality CPG products.
Jim Gelder, Vice President of Creative at LAUNCH and Korhan Beba, Senior Brand Manager for State Fair® Brand, Sara Lee Corporation will present their revealing breakout session “Using Digital to Engage and Influence Busy Moms” at the 2011 PMA Annual Conference.
We just received our copy of the November|December issue of Graphic Design USA. And we’re excited to be in it.

The Davey Awards are the largest and most prestigious awards competition exclusively for the “Davids” of creativity. Just as David defeated the giant Goliath with a little rock and a great idea, the Davey Awards take their name from the Biblical story of David and Goliath, honoring small firms that utilize innovative ideas rather than million-dollar budgets.
