T3 | The Think Tank

Social

T3 facilitates millions of social interactions every month for our clients and was developing social programs before they were called “social.”

Our focus is to create smarter dialogues between people and brands, encouraging participation, sharing and advocacy.

Department of Education: College.gov

“We’re not creating a website, we’re building a movement,” was our guiding philosophy for this collaboration with Crosby Marketing for the U.S. Department of Education.

The site’s mission is to inspire high school students that college is a possibility, regardless of family background or income. The creative wellspring was a simple, powerful two-word theme: “I’m going.” Real college students provide the inspiration in the form of video testimonials and dynamic user-generated content.

JCPenney: Young Moms 2010

New look. New year. Who knew! It was JCPenney’s tagline and mantra in 2010, especially as they sought to show part of their audience — mothers of young children — that the store wasn’t just the place to go for kids’ dressy clothes, but also for everyday style, furniture and accessories.

Through fun lifestyle photography and children’s fashion tips, T3 helped change their perceptions — reminding moms that JCPenney had everything they needed at all the right prices.

T3 worked with JCPenney from 2001 through 2010.

JCPenney: Back to School 2010

It’s back-to-school time — and the teens are in control. In control of the school. In control of the school picture-day photo shoot. And in control of their style.

Through a series of unexpected digital experiences, T3 showed how JCPenney can help teens create, express and share their personal style.

Phillips 66: Kendall Motor Oil

Born in 1881, Kendall Motor Oil has a performance heritage. An exclusive new technology, Liquid Titanium® protection additive, created an opportunity to reinvigorate this icon.

To start, we had to give skeptical customers proof. We worked with our clients to define and visualize the protective strength of the new oil at a molecular level. From there, we brought Kendall roaring back with a campaign that put smart thinking ahead of big spending.
