OVERTHROWTHEGOV.COM

Our goal was to promote the ideas in the book "How to Overthrow the Government" by respected national syndicated columnist and political commentator Arianna Huffington, and to create an ongoing web-based organization for change.

The campaign consisted of three major components: guerrilla marketing, paid media and promotions/events/publicity.

  Developed and created a website that went live in advance of the book and would still have utility beyond the book's publication date.

  Developed and created a grassroots advertising campaign and gained nation-wide notability through a successful national campaign of print, TV and radio advertising utilizing celebrity voiceovers of Bill Maher and Harry Shearer.

  Achieved large amounts of PR coverage utilizing our ability to leverage earned media through paid advertising.

Result: Website became the website for Shadow Conventions 2000, the protest conventions which took place simultaneously with the Republican and Democratic National Conventions, and continues to thrive.
