From Israel With Dov: The U.S. Launch of USB Flash Drives
On 14, Dec 2018 | In B2B, Technology | By Mitch Devine
It’s not often you get to launch a new product in an entirely new category. Here’s a rare window into one such case.
The client was a company based in Israel—with a kangaroo for a product logo. The product was a new type of portable storage, so that explained the marsupial. The inventor called the product “DiskOnKey,” as in, a disk drive on a keychain.
Our mission was to ensure the device would become better known under other names.
NHD: What You Don’t Know Can Kill Your Deal
On 28, Nov 2018 | In B2B, Real Estate | By Mitch Devine
After working on campaigns for both the California Association of Realtors® and National Association of Realtors® (NAR), I got involved in related projects, including specialty designations for agents (Seniors Real Estate Specialists) and required legal reports (Natural Hazards Disclosure LLC; SureTrac).
It turns out that anyone selling a home in California is required by law to disclose if the property lies within any state or locally mapped hazard areas. The information gets released in what’s called a Natural Hazard Disclosure (NHD) report.
Six types of hazard risks must be disclosed, according to California’s Natural Hazards Act (Sec. 1103, California Civil Code). These include: special flood hazard areas, dam inundation, very high fire, wildland fire, earthquake fault zone, and seismic hazards. Pretty serious stuff.
As you’ll see, the creative brief lent itself to some dramatic concepts for trade ads.

waterTALENT: Filling the Gap
On 08, Dec 2011 | In B2B, Utilities | By Mitch Devine
Many of us take for granted the fact that whenever we turn on a faucet, water will come out. It’s easy to forget that it’s someone’s job to keep the water flowing.
These people are called water operators.
Unfortunately, there are not enough new operators being trained for the number of positions that need to be filled.
The good news? Many retired water and wastewater operators still like to share their knowledge and can’t keep still for very long.
That’s why waterTALENT was created: to fill the operator-talent gap in the event of emergency situations or staff transitions at water plants and wastewater facilities across the country.
Take a look at the website copy, ads, and articles I wrote to help develop their brand, blog site and social awareness campaign.
