10 minutes to rapid-fire brainstorm some solid gold creative concepts for Native Deodorant? No sweat. We’re back and at it again and this time we’ve upped the ante from an hour to 20 minutes down to just ten minutes to ideate slogans for our spec work brand du jour. And can we just say…ten minutes goes by really quickly. But nevertheless, we perspired, err, persisted.

Here’s the fun l’il epilogue to this CTBT episode: The Senior Vice President of the brand emailed us saying she loved our ‘Brad Pitt’s pits,’ joke, then hired us for a complete rebrand, major product line expansion, and the creation of every single seasonal launch that calendar year — culminating in a long, sweet-smelling relationship.

Somethin’ to note: beyond enjoying the creative challenge of these monthly spec-periments, we enjoy reminding you about the potential and power of an ideation like this (from brains like ours). The concepts we come up with in these brainstorms hold a ton of branding and marketing value — they serve as more than simple ‘one-liners,’ and could become product names, taglines, ad campaigns, web copy, elevator pitches, social media bios, packaging copy, press release headlines, and overall just new ways of communicating what makes the brand special and compelling.

Catch a whiff of our favorites that we mocked up into graphics and as always, you can watch a fun video of the brainstorm in action here or below.
