CAMPAIGN & ART DIRECTION FOR A COLUMBUS-BASED HEALTH FOOD RESTAURANT
As part of The Ohio State University’s marketing capstone course, a campaign concept and art direction were developed for SŌW Plated and SŌW To Go to drive awareness and engagement for SŌW To Go’s two Columbus locations.
The campaign, Raise The Bar, emphasizes SŌW’s standard of excellence as a brand while delivering an empowering message to the restaurant’s audience. The project was awarded first place by the owners of SŌW Plated.
ORGANIC CONTENT
Organic social media content is used to reposition SŌW from an aspirational brand to a realistic, every-day choice. By depicting SŌW in more casual, lifestyle-oriented settings, consumers can more easily picture themselves incorporating the brand into their own routines.
