For stormwater management, Thirsty Duck provides a radically advanced technology as a solution compared to traditional technology. This new flow control product allows for a constant discharge rate regardless of the water surface elevation, delivering a “cruise control” function which replaces the convention that only large ponds are the time-tested solution in stormwater management. Thirsty Duck can reduce the size of detention ponds by up to 50%.
With this innovation, Thirsty Duck engaged Schifino Lee to build an integrated marketing campaign to establish credibility and educate engineers, real-estate developers and government officials.
Schifino Lee identified that the industry was unaware of Thirsty Duck’s products and how they could benefit from them. “You Don’t Know Duck,” an in-your-face campaign headline, was developed to get the attention of the target audience in an impactful and humorous way. The campaign focused on the product benefits such as optimization in flow rate and pollution control and was communicated through strategic branding, web videos, eBlasts, print ads, brochures, print ads, and a microsite.
