noise has been pushing true creativity on Facebook since the beginning. The team understands how to connect with consumers on our platform and build campaigns that create meaningful and lasting impact for their clients.
When it comes to new media concepting and marketing, noise is the best fucking company on the planet.
The most important thing that noise has done to move our brand forward is not founded in what we've asked them to do, but based on their keen consumer insights and unique perspectives, telling us what, why and how to do the freshest and most authentic things to change our business - and then, of course, executing it flawlessly.
noise is the future, as are we.
Unique consumer insights, a knack for finding compelling ways to connect with our target, and deep relationships inside the nightlife and entertainment industries are what distinguish noise. Over the past four years they have consistently delivered for Bombay Sapphire, evolving and driving our urban programs, building the brand's aspiration and creating buzz.
This is the company to go to if you want to influence the choices of that fickle, unpredictable 20-something crowd.
noise's understanding of the power of fan bases - and their unique ability to identify and create new opportunities for fans to connect with each other online - made a huge impact upon readership and sales.
Our experience with noise set a new benchmark for "grassroots marketing." They create a dialogue with consumers that truly is a two-way communication. noise's talented people are tapped in to what turns young consumers on and they listen keenly to what consumers say. This in turn gives noise - and our brand - huge credibility with consumers under 25.

Chase wanted to improve brand health and acquisitions among college students.
Based on the insight that over 90% of customers stick with their first bank, we created the first credit card to reward responsibility. It was also the first program born on Facebook. We developed the brand, product, card design, rewards program, partnerships, marketing campaign, and operationalized the business. We still manage the product today.
Acquisition numbers were 3X projections and the brand became the 'most relevant' among college students within 6 months. Chase was rated highest among all banks for 'being innovative.'
As part of the Chase +1 product launch, we needed to create a one-stop rewards center that would offer up all products relevant to our audience.
We partnered with Amazon to build the first white label version of their store which we implemented on a standalone URL and inside Facebook (this was the first commerce experience inside Facebook). This meant that students could redeem points for virtually any product they wanted. We also integrated Chase Foundation partners like Teach for America into the store so students could donate points to charities. We handle all partner management, customer service inquiries, fulfillment, warehouse management, order processing, SEO, analytics and points allocation for the store.
Our Chase +1 program was recently featured in Mashable’s “History of Advertising on Facebook” infographic. It’s the only program featured.
We have worked with Facebook since its inception. Over the last several years, we have launched Facebook’s API, created Facebook’s first application and built the first iteration of Facebook Connect.
Intel consistently tasks us with the challenge of helping young consumers better understand the power of the processor.
One program we collaborated on, called Mass Animation, became known as the largest animation collaboration ever bringing together 50,000 animators and animation fans to collaborate on a 5 minute animation short. The final product was released in theaters through Sony Pictures. We developed the brand, designed the experience, and built the program and marketing campaign.
Another solution, “Progress thru Processors,” allows consumers to donate idle processing power to researchers working on cures for AIDS, Cancer and Malaria. We conceived and developed all program elements. It was an honor to develop a program like this that not only does well for Intel but does good in the world.
Progress Thru Processors has led to the creation of the world’s 6th largest super computer...so far.
Sears wanted to increase brand relevance and sales among incoming college freshman.
Based on the insight that arriving freshman are ill-prepared for what awaits, we created the "Campus Ready" platform which included the world's first collaborative dorm room design tool. This allowed incoming freshman to create a virtual design of their new dorm room with their new roommate, and of course purchase the items selected.
Sales exceeded targets by >35% and average time spent with the program was 5 minutes.
We were challenged to build new brand experiences for Six Flags. So we created the Six Flags Music brand, helped execute and promote their in-park music series, created original social games and built an in-park mobile application.
The mobile application delivered 230,000 users and became a top 75 entertainment app. Our second social game, Hidden World, saw 1% of players buying virtual goods. And the music brand/series consistently led to dramatically increased park attendance.
Sunkist wanted to improve brand relevance among 16-18 year-olds.
We created and launched a new brand positioning and campaign, 12 Ounces of Awesome, which for the first time used interactive as the exclusive media channel and delivered 60MM video views across the web. Our original content was featured organically on the homepages of Funny or Die and Break.com. The program delivered lifts across various brand health criteria.
Thompson Hotels wanted to create an improved website experience and increase online bookings.
Since Thompson guests expect the perfect mix of service, style and location, we created a new website that combines a simple booking process, enhanced design, and lifestyle content experience.
Since relaunch, online bookings have increased by 25%, the bounce rate was reduced from 82% to 33%, average time spent on the site increased by 7X, and page views increased by 465%.
Trident Vitality wanted to bring to life the ingredients in their best-selling flavor, Awaken.
We created Falling Stars, an iOS app for Trident Vitality that allows users to build a world of music in seconds using the product's ingredients.
The app has generated 750K downloads, 1.3MM shares, and 5MM plays. It has been featured in Staff Favorites, What's Hot, New and Noteworthy, and has been a top 10 free entertainment app and top 100 free app in iTunes. Falling Stars is rated 4.5 stars with almost 1,300 ratings.
Vice, Intel and Dell wanted to create a new music platform to revolutionize global music discovery.
We collaborated with Vice to create the heartbeat of global music - an online music destination that spans 30 markets and presents original content about the world’s best emerging musicians.
Soon after the site launched, the Washington Post wrote: “It’s MTV the way MTV once was...a gorgeous interactive video site with a slick interface...I’ll put my money on Noisey for music lovers.”
vitaminwater wanted to build excitement for the brand among young adults.
We decided to open up the product development process by building the "vitaminwater flavorcreator" - an interactive platform that allowed fans to collaboratively create the next vitaminwater, called Connect. We developed the brand, platform, marketing strategy and marketing campaign.
1mm vitaminwater fans ultimately participated, leading to a 1000% increase in Facebook fans, an average 7 minutes per user spent on the platform, 40,000 virtual bottles created, 30MM PR impressions, and the program being named one of Forbes' top 20 social programs of all time.

In less than two months, the app was: downloaded 450,000 times and played over 2MM times; featured in Staff Favorites, What's Hot and New and Noteworthy: rated 5-stars with almost 900 ratings; and a top 10 free entertainment app and top 100 free app in all of iTunes.
noise conceived, developed, and marketed vitaminwater's Flavor Creator, an interactive platform that gave fans the power to define the flavor, vitamins and packaging for a new vitaminwater product.
