“Thank You for Not Sitting” Campaign

Like every office in today’s hyper-connected corporate world, the employees at Burns Marketing were getting more and more glued to phones, email, and IM. An efficient way to communicate, for sure. Just not good for overall communication. It was time for a little agency-wide chat. A few insurgents left these “No butts about it” cards, candy cigarettes, and email reduction patches on everyone’s desks to institute a “No internal phone calls or emails” day. Immediate results were extraordinary, allowing this effort to become a part of agency culture. Now, “no butts about it” is code for “come talk to me.”
