- Kaiser Permanente
Kaiser Permanente launched – “Música es salud” an in-language website where users can download music to support them in living healthier lives. Based on the concept that music is good for the health by helping you relax the mind, get revved up for a workout, give a mood boost or even fall asleep easier; “Música es salud” provides Latinos with playlists to help them reap these health benefits. The “Música es salud” website curated by Accentmarketing, Kaiser Permanente’s Hispanic agency of record, in partnership with music branding agency Timbre, builds on Kaiser Permanente’s “Viva Bien” (Thrive) campaign that emphasizes total health and living well. “We at Kaiser Permanente are committed to the well-being of the Latino community. Our focus is on total health and we strive to provide innovative, and engaging tools to help our members, as well as the community at large, thrive,” said Lisa Ryan, Senior Director of National Advertising, Kaiser Permanente. A new extensive series of brand ads created by Accentmarketing also launched this month. Among them, radio spots, billboards, and digital banners encouraging consumers to look at the world a little differently; a soccer ball can be a remedy for stress, a dog can be a personal trainer. Accentmarketing has been responsible for Kaiser Permanente’s Latino branding Spanish and bilingual campaigns in partnership with Campbell-Ewald since 2005.
