Ferguson Residential Trade Campaign FY’25

Campaigns, Photography, Typography, Video

Ferguson aimed to strengthen its market position and deepen relationships with current and prospective Residential Trade customers. The primary focus was the vital repair and remodel plumber segment, with strategic goals to improve brand perception and increase both online engagement and physical branch traffic leading into 2025.

Our team conceptualized and executed a comprehensive, multi-channel advertising campaign built around the core message of Ferguson’s reliable support for the trades. The creative strategy centered on a visually engaging split-screen concept. This approach simultaneously depicted a plumber tackling common job site challenges (water heater replacement, behind-the-wall shower work) and a Ferguson associate proactively supporting them.

The campaign creative visually reinforced Ferguson’s core strengths: deep product inventory and availability, knowledgeable associates acting as true partners, the convenience of their extensive national footprint, and the efficiency of their digital ordering platforms. Deliverables included a full suite of assets tailored for various channels:

  • Video & Audio: Engaging narratives for broadcast and digital streaming.
  • Social Media: Content designed for platform-specific engagement.
  • Digital Advertising: Static and dynamic ads for targeted reach.
  • Web: An updated industry solution landing page providing detailed information.

Once our concept was ready to go we moved into early visual planning for video and still photogrpahy production.
