Twisted

In the Fat Shaft Irons, Wilson had a great new product that could get them back into the golf club business. But how could we get this product considered when Wilson had lost virtually all credibility with golfers? By educating golfers to the Fat Shaft's point of difference-a 35% wider shaft-we were able to position every other iron in the market as fatally flawed. This approach halted years of sales declines and increased Wilson iron sales by 135%

Courage For Your Head

For decades Bell Helmets thrived on selling its bicycle helmets solely through local specialty bike shops. But as states passed new legislation requiring kids to wear helmets, the need for less-expensive, basic helmets grew. And with the explosion of bicycle business in mass merchants like Kmart and Wal-Mart, local bicycle retailers found it difficult to compete. In light of these changes, Bell hired Goodby, Silverstein & Partners to take Bell to the mass market, at a premium price, without losing sales and distribution in its traditional stronghold.
