We’re Atlanta. You’re Welcome Campaign
The Challenge: Atlanta wasn’t showing up like Atlanta. The city’s voice felt too safe and didn’t reflect the real culture, energy, or edge of the place.
The Insight: Identified a new audience persona—the Creative Explorer—someone driven by culture, flavor, and discovery, not just traditional attractions.
The Result: Launched the “We’re Atlanta. You’re Welcome” campaign that invited visitors in with swagger, soul, and Southern hospitality—and reintroduced Atlanta on its own terms.
My Role:
- Led strategy and creative concepting for a full 360° campaign
- Conducted competitive audits and consumer research to define what set Atlanta apart
- Crafted a new tone of voice that matched the city’s vibe—bold, warm, and unapologetic
- Wireframed a custom campaign landing page
- Helped shape a refreshed visual identity to align with the new messaging
- Oversaw rollout across digital, social, OOH, and video
