Buddy Adventure Insurance

The Buddy System

 

Case Description

 

The Challenge:

Develop a social media influencer marketing campaign.

The Situation:

Buddy Adventure Insurance is a one-of-a-kind accident insurance, built for extreme sports enthusiasts living on the edge in the outdoors.

The Opportunity:

With every new product, customers need an explanation of the benefits and a reason to believe in the brand.

The Solution:

We crafted the Buddy Guide — a brand booklet designed for Buddy Ambassadors, ready for hand out during the outdoor sporting events where the Buddy Adventure Insurance team would be dropping into as they expand across the states.
