CSICA Super Hero Island

Canadian Society for the Investigation of Child Abuse needed an engaging, non-threatening way to help prepare children for court.

We were honored to help CSICA help children by creating Super Hero Island, a fun, interactive island that makes testifying a lot less scary for children.

ICUC Moderation Services Website

ICUC Moderation Services are the eyes and ears of some of the largest brands in the world.

Lucky for us, we are their interactive agency. Check out their new brand identity, messaging and their interactive
branded website.

SpeakUp Winnipeg Website
SpeakUp Winnipeg Logo

The City of Winnipeg was looking for an innovative way to get public input into its new comprehensive 25-year plan.

With an interactive website and social media at its core, we created a brand for the initiative and a comprehensive marketing strategy that included street teams, outdoor media, guerilla tactics and feedback mechanisms.

Decor Cabinets Website
Decor Cabinets Logo

Decor Cabinets wasn't always one of North America's leading cabinet manufacturers.

We began working with Decor Cabinets in 2006 by helping define what makes them unique as a company. Since that time, we've become completely integrated into their marketing department. From market research to sales strategy, we help with every part of their marketing and communications.

Cabela's Canada Website
Cabela's Canada Logo

When the “world's foremost outfitter” expanded their business into Canada, they needed a strong online presence to compliment their already strong brand.

We led their online efforts in the Canadian market through market research, rich media design and the development of a brand new website with over 30,000 items for sale. We kept the Cabela's brand at the forefront while ensuring that the site was visibly Canadian.

IDEA Website

How do you market the invisible? Despite success with Adidas and Fruit of the Loom, Idea was having difficulty growing their business.

We started by simplifying their message and then refined their brand, created a visual identity to match and a website that clearly communicates their innovative solution to supply-chain headaches.

We know the game. We'll lead you.

You know where you want to be. You hear about the interactive online digital social-something-or-other world but don't know how to use it. You want someone to really listen then offer solutions you've never thought of. From interactive marketing to brand development to print material, we can do it all.

Get into the new game. We'll take you there.

Let's Talk.

Just a small number of thingsthat have us excited these days.

Tribune Sells VideoBridge

December 8, 2009

We've teamed up with Tribune Media Services to distribute VideoBridge, our own spiffy technology that creates personal and customized video messages. While we're pitching the product to a variety of verticals, TMS is our exclusive sales agent for North American cable television companies.

Managing Director of TMS Marketing Services Richard Hill thinks our product is a good fit for their cable operators, saying, "This dynamic direct marketing tool will help... reach their audience in ways they never could before." (Seriously, who doesn't love all things dynamic?)

Check out our product at videobridge.ca. And/or read the full news release here.

We've Been Profiled

December 3, 2009

This summer, New Media Manitoba put out a call to profile eight new media Manitoba companies then showcase the video clips in Winnipeg and beyond.

Thanks to New Media Manitoba for selecting us as one of the eight and kudos to Lisanne and James from BlinkWorks Media for a fun shoot and fantastic film. (Our Creative Director was a little afraid of the camera, but — hey — he survived.)

When the 4-minute video premiered last night at the IMAX, our jaws dropped at the finished product. Not because our company looked 10 pounds heavier... but because NMM and Blink-Works outdid themselves. Check it out on Vimeo... we think you'll agree.

Visit the Island!

November 18, 2009

Imagine a child who's a victim of child abuse and facing the nightmare of testifying in a courtroom. All they want is to close their eyes and wish that some big giant fairy would swoop in and say, "I'm here to help; let's relax and get through this together." Turns out, there is such a fairy... she's called "CSICA" (pronounced sick-kah). For close to 20 years, Canadian Society for the Investigation of Child Abuse has been committed to supporting those involved in the investigation of child abuse.

We're helping develop interactive and informative tools to build their brand and engage with victims, their families and witnesses. The first piece is SuperHero Island, an interactive island that focuses on fun games and educational elements such as memory, relaxation techniques and the rules of the court room. As children progress through the island, the process of testifying becomes better understood and less threatening. Visit the island!

The Kings Head Goes Live

October, 2009

Nothing much beats the Kings Head Pub & Eatery for live entertainment, the friendliest staff in town and an authentic English pub experience.

We were thrilled when they turned to us for leadership on a new website and set out to create an interactive experience based on the atmosphere and décor of the actual pub. This month their new site went live — check it out at www.kingshead.ca.

This effort took the research resources of the entire Mars Hill team. We worked until the wee hours of the night making sure we fully understood our client's unique offerings. All that beer. All that food. Work, work, work.

Our offices are so close to their space that now we keep on going there for — ummm — post-launch research. Let's just say we highly recommend this destination pub in the heart of Winnipeg's Exchange District.
