Synopsis:
The background:
Helix and their agency of record, Eleven, have created a new advertising campaign, “Crack Your Code”, to mark the launch of Helix’s new marketplace of DNA-powered products in the category of personal genomics. The ad campaign includes TV, radio, print, digital and social. Below please find links to the TV spots and attached please find samples of print and digital media.
The creative campaign strategy:
The overall idea for the campaign was to showcase how DNA learning can be accessible and actionable for everyone.
Quotes:
“The goal of the creative was to show how Helix can help people make more informed choices and decisions about their health, fitness, nutrition, and more,” said Chad Leitz, Creative Director at Eleven. “We wanted to illustrate the promise and possibility of how DNA can actually enhance peoples’ lives daily, so we honed in on the idea of the personal DNA result. We illustrated people in exaggerated circumstances, taking life into their own hands with the new knowledge they’ve discovered about themselves through the Helix platform.”
“It’s our mission to empower people to improve their life through DNA,” said Jessica Graham, Head of Launch & Partner Marketing at Helix. “The campaign aims to represent and announce the Helix value proposition as something entirely different and revolutionary within the category. Together we landed on “Crack Your Code” as our tagline as it’s a message we felt was actionable that could inspire people to be proactive in learning about themselves. It’s not only our new tagline but also a call to action for curious people.”
