Amex Platinum teamed up with Equinox to give cardmembers an annual rebate of up to $300 on statement credits. To raise awareness about this perk, they aimed to create an event generating PR and showcasing the benefit.
While competing agencies suggested costly one-time events, our proposal stood out: THE PLATINUM SERIES. This innovative concept involved a series of events held at iconic venues in major cities, offering remarkable fitness experiences exclusively for Platinum Cardholders.
Over 7 events in a single year, we headed to New York City to activate the Platinum Series with a full stadium takeover at Arthur Ashe Stadium, giving card members a chance to hit balls alongside Lindsay Davenport , as well as closed the MoMA museum to host a 100+ for Yoga and sunrise boxing at SUMMIT One Vanderbilt. Los Angeles had wine and fitness at Peju Winery, meditation at Five Sense Collective and yoga at the Museum of Contemporary Art Los Angeles.
The success of the series prompted a year 2 extension. Takeovers included Brooklyn Museum and Arthur Ashe in NYC, Equinox Century City and Sheats–Goldstein Residence in LA and Rubell Museum in Miami.
In conjunction with event production, we collaborated closely with Amex and Equinox marketing teams to comprehensively develop the user experience, creating newsletter content for platinum cardholders and extending the project through Equinox's Digital App.
“Jess’ is a consummate professional and developed a long standing program that satisfied our core business objectives.”
