Dev of mobile digital stickers users can access through the PlayChaser app and send via messaging apps to family and friends.
An assortment of licensed Geoffrey products for retail sale, in-store support, employee onboarding, and rewards programs.
TRU stop-motion animation for social media content, promoting Geoffrey’s Birthday Club, a customer rewards program.
Digital assets (email, social media) for Geoffrey’s Birthday Club targeted outreach and promotional campaigns.
Vector samples developed for a variety of marketing and sales applications.
