WSECU
Chief Marketing and Analytics Officer Washington State Employees Credit Union “Hydrogen helped us create a great concept that provides a framework to tell personal, relatable stories about our products. The ‘Let’s Credit Union’ tagline highlights our culture of inclusiveness, and the messaging extends perfectly across our media channels, translating to both video and static creative.” Problem Most Washingtonians think “A bank is a bank is a bank. I don’t see much difference between any of them.” We had to develop a campaign that could break through the sameness of bank advertising and highlight what makes WSECU unique.
