Insight //
Over the past decade military enlistment numbers had plummeted. Fueled by a good economy, young adults had endless employment options.

We created two bespoke campaigns, one to tackle the concerns of the young adults and another for their parents.

It worked. Site views surged, opinions changed, and most importantly, enlistment numbers increased. We made a case study because we found it's more entertaining than a spreadsheet of results.
