Notable Campaigns

In 1972 Ogilvy & Mather, Sydney first developed the line "Don't Leave Home Without It" as a means of educating Australians how to use the country's first credit card. Created by Ian Latham and David Prentice. Three years later in 1975, the line was adapted by Ogilvy & Mather New York to "Don't Leave Home Without Them' ad campaign for American Express Traveler's Cheques, featuring Oscar Award-winning actor Karl Malden. The "Don't Leave Home Without It" slogan was revived in 2005 for the prepaid American Express Travelers Cheque Card. After Malden's departure, American Express continued to feature celebrities, including Jerry Seinfeld, Martin Scorsese, Robert De Niro, Wes Anderson, Ken Watanabe, Ellen DeGeneres and Conan O'Brien.

In 2007, Ogilvy Stockholm developed the "Animals in the Womb" campaign for Ford Flexifuel, which was nominated for the Cannes Lion Award and for the Guldägget Award in 2008.

Famous quotes containing the words notable and/or campaigns:

    In one notable instance, where the United States Army and a hundred years of persuasion failed, a highway has succeeded. The Seminole Indians surrendered to the Tamiami Trail. From the Everglades the remnants of this race emerged, soon after the trail was built, to set up their palm-thatched villages along the road and to hoist tribal flags as a lure to passing motorists.
    —For the State of Florida, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    That food has always been, and will continue to be, the basis for one of our greater snobbisms does not explain the fact that the attitude toward the food choice of others is becoming more and more heatedly exclusive until it may well turn into one of those forms of bigotry against which gallant little committees are constantly planning campaigns in the cause of justice and decency.
    Cornelia Otis Skinner (1901–1979)
