Landing Pages
We were speaking to several different audiences, so I created customized landing pages for each. Although the tweaks in copy seem minor, they made each customer feel that Earnest understood their needs.
Video
We teamed up with Team Win to show that Earnest is not just a loan company. It’s an empathetic partner that makes a stressful process easy. I was deeply involved with this ad, from agency selection and briefing to creative direction, copywriting, editing, and shoot notes.
