EXTRAORDINARY IDEAS

MORE ideas? Yes, a lot more ideas. Because we have created so many different things – print, electronic, out-of-home, point-of-sale, broadcast, trade show materials… the list goes on. And one thing ties it all together… As far as we’re concerned, there is no box, and we push to prove it. Nobody works harder and cares more than the Ideabenders.

Tracy Wampler’s sister had an idea, and we had some time to bring it to fruition, which meant meetings with potential retailers (including Walmart), negotiations with manufacturers, and a couple of years at Toy Fair in NYC. Our grandkids love ‘em!

We took such a novel approach to creation of these materials – an “in-the-case” look – that the client flinched. Then she said “Let’s do it.” And within a year, Burkart rose into the top tier of professional flute and piccolo brands world-wide.

Ideabenders created the original logo for HR Boot Camp, and creates a different theme and materials for it every year. In the 10 years that the program has been running, this is our favorite so far, but we’d happily show you others. Click for PDF

CAL Success Sample

Does your dentist provide as much information on the web as Dr. Joe Columbus does? Probably not. That he does is one of the reasons why this site helps ramp up his patient count and his positive ratings. Knowledge is power! Click to Site

Nosotros hablamos español. Well, only a little, really. Plus a bit of several other languages, which helps us get perfect idiomatic translations – “…full round sound…” here and “…the song of a lark…” somewhere else. ¡Perfecto!

BUR Piccolo Sample

We “road-blocked” Sundays on several radio station with this spot, knowing the target audience was inclined to Sunday listening, then sat back as the client fielded phone calls and emails on Mondays and Tuesdays. Play to listen.

Casey Holt started out in radio sales, but he didn’t sell time – he sold ideas. He has written, produced – and sometimes voiced – dozens of radio spots, and nobody does it better. (Maybe as well, but not better…) Play to listen.

At one point, Platinum Audio produced the largest and most expensive home-use loudspeakers in the world, but they were best known for world-class sound at a small size. Ideabenders is best known for world-class creative at any size.

Back in his radio days, Casey Holt added lyrics to a piece of production music, carved it into several versions, sang it out with air talent Cindy Beals Brooks, and pumped up the volume for the craziest gas station in the nation. Play to listen.

Nothing makes Casey Holt happier than to bend words – especially homonyms – to make target customers smile, and this job was a dream come true. When we showed the piece to the two guys who run the show, they liked it, too.

MER Knots Guy Sample

If you sell a lot of windows and you’re paying for that classic “knot hole” promotion at the ballpark, you might as well bring back memories. Cool that we could also tie it into another product RIVCO sold – Diamond kitchen cabinets.
