Pharma ads needn't feel like pharma ads

My first pharma campaign

High Rise was a virility pill in South Africa with issues.

For years it was the region's top selling male vitamin supplement.  Then out-of-the-blue Viagra appeared and everything changed.

Our remedy was to create communications that would steal Pfizer's thunder. We'd create a Viagra launch campaign but we'd do it for High Rise.

At time of writing, High Rise is still very much in business. The arrival of Viagra actually gave sales a lift.

Campaign was selected as one of TBWA Worldwide's “Year's Best” commercials by Jay Chiat.
