Need her rapt attention? You won't get it with more of the same.

WHAT A DIFFERENCE A DAY MAKES! 

In just one day, Deloitte tells clients, we’ll find your next stage of growth. Its method: DeepDive™ ─ a day of rapid brainstorming, prototyping & feedback loops. Asked to market it, we cast DeepDive™ not as a “strategic-planning solution” (been there, done that) but as an urgent intervention to harness the collective IQ.

"INVISAGE THE CAMERA IN A NEW LIGHT!"

When InVisage looked for a high-wattage message to say that it ends the phone camera's struggle to perform in low light, it turned to bVIVID. No struggle here. It's not about the technology ─ an ultra-sensitive film that coats the camera's sensor. It's about what should be ─ the phone camera as finder of "new light." 

TODAY, EVEN THE QUICKEST BOOKS ARE TOO SLOW.

High net-worth portfolio management can’t wait for financial data; it must be aggregated, reconciled, and reported on demand. Enter Asset Vantage, whose cloud-based platform creates a consolidated view of net worth to facilitate accounting and performance reporting.  To sharpen its messaging, this fintech turned to us.

TO LIFE(CYCLE)!

Where CRM preserves client data, CLM (Client Lifecycle Management) preserves the client; it’s an analytical process for managing investment-client lifecycles (including KYC compliance) for the purpose of maximizing profitability. Wealth Dynamix “wrote the book” on CLM for private banking. We wrote its eBook.

KEEP YOUR HAYSTACKS. WE NEED NEEDLES. 

 
CN identifies TV shows in real time and infers who’s watching, so that advertisers can find targets concealed by broad demographics. Facing skeptics still loyal to dubious set-top box data, it tapped us for presentations designed to prove that "showtime” is more profitable when networks know who’s watching in real time.

WELCOME TO ZIP CODE 95831. INVEST WISELY.

 
Details are everything for mortgage-pool investors: Which mortgages are solid and which are under water or likely will be? Where to find these microscopic details? CoreLogic engaged us to make its case: Its risk analytics are the only ones granular enough to spot foreclosures in the works and those pending. 

THIS KEYNOTE STRUCK THE RIGHT CHORD

For her first trip to China as PepsiCo's CEO, Indra Nooyi tapped us to write her keynote ─ a promise to bring safe drinking water to China's driest regions. China's markets open slowly; sellers must prove their worth. In vowing to fight China's water shortage with unexpected resolve, Indra did exactly that. 

AVON CALLING, SCRIPTED BY bVIVID 

Invited by the Direct-Selling Association to explain Avon’s move to a controversial sales model called multi-level marketing, then-CEO Andrea Jung needed a speech written to thread the needle: i.e., while Avon respects industry norms, its reps must be able to earn more. She engaged us to write it. 

THAT BYLINE IS YOUR LINE, DEAR CLIENT!

 
"Can you get me a bylined article in The Economist"? asked a client whose software optimizes B2B profit. We can. Step one: Produce the piece – a crisp argument against impulsive discounting. Step two: Submit the article and let it speak for itself. It did. The Economist published the piece under our client's byline.

TO MOVE MONEY, PRESS POUND

 
Mobile money is the purpose of M-Pesa, a fintech initiative that is lifting millions out of poverty by enabling real-time payments. When a TIBCO executive was asked by the World Economic Forum to contribute a bylined article on the power of this technology, he tapped us to write it. We called it, "To Move Money, Press Pound." 

WHERE ARE MY #$@&%*! INTEGRATIONS? 

 
How to cure gaps across the enterprise where integrations and automations should be? By turning business-process flows into immediately-executable software automation code ─ a fix we named Integration as a Self-Service.™ Kapow Software provided the technology; bVIVID wrote the white paper.

TREAT YOUR HEART TO A HANDFUL OF WALNUTS!

Replacing its high-protein claim with an appeal to heart health has paid off for Planters, a unit of Kraft Heinz. Still, "healthy" is no golden ticket, says research firm IRI in a white paper for food marketers written by bVIVID.  Long term, it says, discrete nutritional claims like “low sodium” will eclipse “healthy.”

WE'LL TAKE THE STAIN. YOU KEEP THE SHIRT.

But first you'll have to find Carbona at the sprawling Housewares Show. To lure reporters, we sent each an opulent white shirt ─ Gucci for women, Brioni for men ─ correctly sized and pristine but for a tragic wine stain. “Join Carbona at booth 910," our note read. "We’ll take the stain, you keep the shirt.” They lined up.

"FORE," SHMORE. WE HAVE LIFTOFF! 

How did we get Newsweek to cover the launch of Wilson's Ultra 500 golf ball? We looked for vivid and found it in the ball's designers: former aerospace engineers whose love of golf led them to Wilson. Rocket scientists using their genius to help fellow golfers save some strokes; that's a hook we'll gladly take!

THE HARDEST PART OF SELLING?

 
Getting prospects on the phone! Lavante, which automates the nitty gritty of supplier management (like collecting tax ID's) engaged bVIVID to raise awareness through emails aimed at directors of procurement. We tapped into the urgency of removing human error: Collect every W-9 or the IRS could come knocking! 

LOYALTY LIFTED 

For the science of building loyalty Virgin America turns to TIBCO, which automates its frequent-flyer program. Where does TIBCO turn to craft its case studies? To us. The dozens we've produced demonstrate TIBCO's purpose: to equip enterprises to circulate real-time data and leverage analytics, both key to growth.

HOW TO MAKE RUFFLES WITHOUT GETTING RUFFLED? 

"I'd like a newsletter for my global team," Frito-Lay's head of procurement told us. We took some creative license and produced an intelligence report: a look at how his people work the supply chain masterfully to secure advantages in ingredient quality, price, and supply. We called it... what else?... Food for Thought.

HE WROTE THE BOOK ON GOING SMALL...

... and we got it published. When an Oracle VP sought to write a book about how a series of small initiatives can spawn big results, we committed to get it published. We wrote the proposal, pitched it, and won a contract for our client from McGraw-Hill (advance included). Getting to Big the Small Way hit shelves one year later.
