Ascend Federal Credit Union
Situation
Inspiring new members, one goal at a time.
While continuing our efforts on strengthening the Ascend Federal Credit Union brand, the Lewis team saw an opportunity for growth in the Nashville DMA. To seize on that opportunity, we proposed to create a campaign that would attract new members—and energize the existing ones—via Ascend’s mortgage, new auto loan and deposit offerings.

Approach
The Lewis team responded by creating a campaign largely designed to appeal to a younger demographic (adults in their 30’s and 40’s) than those previously targeted by Ascend, with scenarios that also were more relatable to individuals living in a metropolitan area.

The Work
The resulting work painted Ascend as a sophisticated financial partner who can help people achieve their goals, even if those goals may not seem immediately attainable—the latter point reinforced by the campaign line “We’re here to help make your “someday”… someday soon.”
