Found

Let’s face it, trying to lose weight can suck. We try the latest diet or exercise craze and blame ourselves when it doesn’t work out. Enter Found, a clinician-led weight care program that designs an approach that’s tailored to your individual biology and lifestyle. Rather than focus on one aspect of weight loss, Found integrates exercise, nutrition, emotional support, and the latest medications to deliver a personalized and comprehensive solution designed just for you.

In 2023, we worked with Found to tell their compelling story with a brand marketing campaign for their key markets. Starting with a :30 video that poked fun at some familiar fad weight loss approaches that don’t always work for everyone.

TV Spot

The key insight behind the Not for Every Body campaign was that one of the most frustrating parts of losing weight is that every body is unique. What worked for your friend or partner may do nothing for you, leaving you feeling like you failed. In an overhyped, emotional category, we wanted to take a lighthearted tone to break through and show people that maybe it wasn’t that they failed the diet, maybe the diet failed them. Partnering with Near Future and director Danielle Calodney, we developed a fast-paced and upbeat ode to joyfully failing weight loss fads and finding a more personalized approach with Found.

Digital Ads and Podcast 

We also told the story in digital display and podcast ad units, shooting original photography with Roger Kisby to flip the conventions of the category. No more before and after shots or crazy promises, but images of weight loss as it should be: as real, vibrant, and unique as you are.
