Remote and Virtual Marketing Strategies

They say nothing is predictable...and that couldn’t feel more true than right now in this unprecedented time. We at Think Jam are wishing you and your families good health and safety as we all take it day by day. While our London and Los Angeles office spaces are closed, all employees are working remotely from home and we are still up and running as a full-service marketing agency with our publicity, influencer, social media, creative, strategy and insight teams continuing on current campaigns and ready to get creative for your future projects. We want you to know you are supported -- even if just virtually for now. With social distancing and staying home being a collective global goal and physical events / experiential activations being shelved for the time being, we as an agency are challenging ourselves to adjust to this new norm. We’re working with speed, enthusiasm and agility to pivot campaigns and develop new creative approaches to help our clients succeed and thrive as they and all consumers are spending more time at home. We are ready and confident that we can work with you to brainstorm innovative and updated strategies, adjust campaign tactics and execute bold, digital activations to drive your message and business. Think Jam was originally established as an all-digital agency, and we have years of experience in this space on a global scale. With our expertise in mind, we thought it would be helpful to share some of our favorite virtual activations and approaches with you. We'd love to assist your teams as upcoming campaigns adjust, and everyone is looking to entertain audiences while still having a sense of community in our homes. Send us an email or give us a call. We’re here and ready to help! Examples of these digital campaigns and services include:
  • At-Home Movie Nights and Activities
  • Remote Viewing Parties
  • Digital Influencer Campaigns
  • Interactive Creative Content
  • Live Streamed and Remote Talent Opportunities
