Imagine living a childhood without possibility of running with friends, playing ball in the yard, or even a mother’s embrace. As hard as it is to picture, this is the life of little Nastya, Max and 4,000 other kids all over Russia. They are called “the butterfly children” — those who were born with a rare genetic condition epidermolysis bullosa that occurs once in every 100,000 births. Their skin is so fragile that even the slightest touch causes pain and great damage. However, now with the help of latest banking technologies, people can help the butterfly children without a single touch. In December 2016, Citi and Mastercard launched an initiative — “The Untouchables” — with the aim to help BELA Fund raise donations to improve the lives of little patients all over the country. Even though currently there is no cure for epidermolysis bullosa, there are still ways to support butterfly children and their families in the lifelong endeavour that is living with this difficult diagnosis. To this end, a series of customized posters with built-in technology of contactless payment has been created. A person can make an instant donation in the amount of 100 Rubles by simply waving a bank card or any other payment device in front of the poster. No touch required. The posters can be found in the most popular 50 places around Moscow and St. Petersburg — restaurants, hotels, shopping malls — as well as in all Citibank branches in these cities.

Our research showed 71% of people weren’t exactly sure what they were covered for after they bought insurance. Meet ‘Nagging Doubt’. He’s the physical embodiment of our insurance worries – that little niggle at the back of our minds – and the ‘anti-hero’ in these ads for Swinton Insurance. He appears at the very moment in our adverts when people start to question their insurance, and is then ‘removed’ in a number of unconventional scenarios. Alongside the strapline ‘Turn Nagging Doubt into nothing-to-worry about’, the character showcases Swinton’s ability to put the nation’s minds at ease, so customers feel more confident about their insurance decisions.

barrettSF is launching its second holiday marketing campaign for specialty retailer Cost Plus World Market. The work will run through the end of December. Driven by the tagline “Gift Thoughtfully,” the holiday campaign will support an integrated full-funnel marketing plan that includes contests, brand partnerships, digital video, interactive mobile units, digital display, social and print media to showcase Cost Plus World Market’s wide array of holiday décor, traditional foods, entertaining essentials, furniture, and thoughtful gifts. The digital video, a two-minute short film featuring an original recording of Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town recorded by GRAMMY® Award-nominated, multi-platinum superstar Jessie J., tells the story of a little boy searching for the answer to a very important question: What is Santa’s favorite cookie? After not getting an answer from his mom, the little boy launches into a full-blown, detective-level investigation. The boy starts by rifling through stacks of Santa-themed picture books, attempts to bake a new kind of cookie with his dad, gets into a heated debate about cookies with his friends, asks his local baker for any leads, and even interrogates numerous department store Santas for clues. Finally, after his exhaustive research, the little boy finds himself in the cookie section of a Cost Plus World Market. It’s the moment of truth. But instead of picking out a cookie, the boy finds a much more thoughtful gift: a holiday-themed cookie jar.
