Sky-High Sales: Jack Link’s Takes National Jerky Day 2024 to New Heights

Jack Link’s invented National Jerky Day (NJD), and while past efforts were big on spectacle, they didn’t always drive sales figures worth celebrating. In 2024, Jack Link’s CEO said, “Get as much jerky in people's mouths as possible!” And that is exactly what we did.

The Richmond Region Speaks For Itself

To help spur tourism recovery post-pandemic, Richmond Region Tourism (RRT) needed an inspirational campaign to drive hospitality and economic development. We cut through the noise with a destination campaign that “Speaks for Itself”.

Our SHIFT Communications team is also a finalist in the Start-Up Marketing Campaign category for “Sparking Launch Love for a New Dating App” with PreVue.
