The Man Wants A Watch

Wednesday, June 11th, 2008
Senator Barack Obama

Of course he’s smiling – he’s about to get a free watch!

So our team was notified today that Barack Obama wants his very own Obama watch! That’s right, the senator from Illinois had his people call us to see if we could meet with him in the near future to present him with his very own Obama watch.

Obviously we’re all very excited, and have scheduled a trip down to Philadelphia on Friday to meet with the candidate. The viral campaign we put together wasn’t the best I’ve seen, but we wanted something that involved watches. More importantly, it’s starting to generate a bunch of press, and a ton of word of mouth traffic.

After all, the watches are already in the Smithsonian, and they’re going to be in Obama’s hands on Friday. That’s not too shabby for a marketing budget of about $250.
