Looking to rediscover their groove following the pandemic, Forty and Big Think joined forces to showcase the brand to its full potential. Working together, we carried out a brand and market analysis, to create a comprehensive, adaptable and measured strategy, with a considered focus on social media management, email marketing and PPC management.

Initially utilising and enhancing existing resources and assets, we soon ventured into content creation. Working collaboratively, our design studio helped breathe new life back into the brand through the provision of illustration, animation and video production. Storytelling and inspiration have been weaved back into the fabric of the brand, with their warm charm and tongue in cheek humour back at the surface.

Creative shoots were executed for their SS23 and AW23 Tech Pack Collection – a range which has helped evolve the brand and continues to produce some of their best-selling garments.

The concept "Bright Futures" was created to promote their ever-popular Back to School collection and a simple studio shoot helped launch the SS24 pre-collection.

We regularly work with the team at Forty, and their chosen models, to facilitate studio and location shoots, stills and video, for use across their owned, paid and retail media.

It was time to take Forty to the streets... making sure we chose prominent, youth-focused OOH placements that brought an edge to our many launches. 

From city centre focused activity during peak trading seasons to bus sides and billboards to launch new collections, there's not many placements left that we haven't 'Fortified'.
