Second Gear Co.
Mar 2016 - Aug 2017Account and Project ManagerSecond Gear Co. was a passion project of mine, born out of the desire to help small companies stuck in "first gear" (slow growth, poorly defined processes, strapped for capital) kick things up a notch. I was the bridge between small and medium, providing consultative account management, client relations, operations, marketing, and project management skills so that these organizations could grow from one or two employees to several, without the need to hire a full-time project manager or COO.

- Awarded to Britt SmithBronze: Public Interest/Awareness, Bayhealth - "Be My Hero" The Telly Awards Jun 2021 To counter the burnout and frustration occuring early on in the pandemic, Franklin Street partnered with Bayhealth (Delaware) to create a :30s TV spot which could be used as a PSA. We wanted to turn the tables on consumers and the general public, asking them to "Be My Hero" after all we've done to keep them safe.

- Awarded to Britt SmithGold: Magazine Advertising, Bayhealth - "The health of one inspires us all." The Healthcare Advertising Awards Apr 2021 When one of us thrives, we all thrive. This is the heart of a specialized surgery campaign we developed for Bayhealth (Delaware). Leveraging stories of people who had experienced life-changing surgery at Bayhealth, we focused not only on their experience but on their ability to get back to life and support their community. In a rural/suburban setting, one person being out of work or away from the activities they love makes an even bigger impact.

Leveraging stories of people who had experienced life-changing surgery at Bayhealth, we focused not only on their experience but on their ability to get back to life and support their community. In a rural/suburban setting, one person being out of work or away from the activities they love makes an even bigger impact. By bringing each patient back to a higher quality of life, we could indirectly elevate the entire community - one body part at a time. Katie's elbow may "just be an elbow", but when her weekends are spent encouraging young women to take to sports and BMX racing, her elbow becomes so much more critical – to her, to her family, to her community, but most of all to the girls she inspires every day.

- Awarded to Britt SmithBronze: Professional Recruitment Program, CHI Memorial - "Life. It's more than a job." The Healthcare Advertising Awards Apr 2020 How do you recruit for nursing positions, when you can't promise "better" patients? You focus on what you do have. Between the lifestyle of living in Chattanooga, the work-life balance CHI Memorial could guarantee, and the ability to proudly embrace your faith and follow your heart, our recruitment campaign brought record-breaking hiring streaks to fruition. Not only were these candidates qualified professionally, but they were also pre-qualified to enjoy life in Chattanooga and at CHI Memorial… Show more How do you recruit for nursing positions, when you can't promise "better" patients?

- Awarded to Britt SmithGold: Magazine Ad, Mass General Cancer Center - "Welcome to Newton" The Healthcare Advertising Awards Apr 2019 Mass General Cancer Center trusted my team and me with their first-ever westward expansion outside of Boston proper. In partnership with Newton-Wellesley Hospital, MGCC opened a satellite location but had no idea how to promote its services to a suburban audience, especially one who associated "going into Boston" with high-quality care. To counter this, we paired the MGCC/NWH logo with a beautiful Fall photo of Newton looking towards Boston.

In partnership with Newton-Wellesley Hospital, MGCC opened a satellite location but had no idea how to promote its services to a suburban audience, especially one who associated "going into Boston" with high-quality care. To counter this, we paired the MGCC/NWH logo with a beautiful Fall photo of Newton looking towards Boston. This was a jarring juxtaposition compared to what you'd expect to see from Mass General, which is typically associated with an urban setting inside Boston. The photography instilled pride in the staff and patients, the larger-than-life logo reinforced the announcement, and the overall impression communicated MGCC services at Newton-Wellesley Hospital in a way their sophisticated audience could appreciate and absorb.

- Awarded to Britt SmithSilver: Online Display Ads, Newton-Wellesley Hospital - "Still experiencing a-fib symptoms?" The Healthcare Advertising Awards Apr 2019 What does it feel like to have atrial fibrillation? In creating this campaign, we uncovered that a large number of people living with a-fib were not receiving adequate care from either their primary care doctor or from the specialist they were seeing. Newton-Wellesley Hospital and its electrophysiologists were prepared to make a commitment to each individual patient to greatly reduce or completely eliminate their symptoms. I worked with a design team who brought symptoms to life graphically as… Show more What does it feel like to have atrial fibrillation? In creating this campaign, we uncovered that a large number of people living with a-fib were not receiving adequate care from either their primary care doctor or from the specialist they were seeing. Newton-Wellesley Hospital and its electrophysiologists were prepared to make a commitment to each individual patient to greatly reduce or completely eliminate their symptoms. I worked with a design team who brought symptoms to life graphically as part of an online digital advertising series: "dizziness" gave you the sensation of being dizzy, "skipped beats" made you feel like you were missing something in the rhythm of the ad, and "heavy breathing" made you feel like you couldn't get enough air despite expanding your chest as far as possible.

Our audience shared birthdays, first dates (sometimes with parental supervision), celebrated cancer recovery and even rewarded themselves for being brave during shots at the doctor’s office. Although high participation was expected, the personal and heartwarming stories were beyond anything that our team could have predicted. Show less
