$450 million: Selling Da Vinci's Salvator Mundi
True artistic mastery will always command high prices, but appealing to emotion and ego can create a bidding war for the record books. In this case, the sale of “The Last Da Vinci”, or Salvator Mundi, for $450 million. The highest price ever paid for a piece of art.

Discover Ipswich - Humans Wanted
Ipswich’s recent tourism success has come from thinking differently, researching our audience and challenging conventional marketing. Our goal – increase Domestic Overnight Visitation. Our Google Trekker ‘Human Wanted’ campaign embraced new technology and aligned with Australia’s #1 website – Google Maps – usually applied to National Parks but we became the first region in the Southern Hemisphere to map our visitor precincts, walks and highlights. The journey to create this new visitor resource became a narrative for online audiences to maintain their interest over a year, build awareness, market the destination and reap free media coverage in the process.

Prescribed to Death
How can you get Americans to take the threat of prescription opioids seriously when they don’t believe addiction can happen to them? This was National Safety Council’s challenge as they sought to combat the surging prescription opioid epidemic. To maximize their small budget, they invested in a live and virtual memorial, believing it would earn more media attention than they could afford in traditional channels. The risk payed off; the program earned media fame for NSC and gave over 1 million Americans a life-saving tool to protect themselves from addiction.
