True Value Hardware
The True Value of DIY
All hardware brands offer the same thing; products and advice to help people complete projects. The category is saturated with imagery of friendly apron-clad employees offering expert advice. To differentiate True Value and resonate with young DIYers, we’re moving beyond a rational appeal and celebrating the deeper reasons – because your DIY projects mean more than just crossing something off your list - they give you the satisfaction of a job well done, they help create memories, and they instill a sense of pride.

Total annual sales up 6.0% – Best in 20 Years

Significant lift in key brand attributes among young DIYer target audience

The Value of a Lawnmower.
This retail focused Spring campaign was disruptively quiet, with an empathetic ‘eye on the prize’ message. Yes, spring is a lot of work. But summer is worth it.
For this seasonal campaign we shot 6 TV spots and an image library for social and digital use.
