Marvell Technology
Famous, purpose driven work that works.


Tom Hayes, VP Marketing & Whitty with Marvell co-founders Dr. Sehat Sutardja & Weili Dai, pitching the media at The China Club in Hong Kong.
Full Story | Overview
Most marketing effectiveness case studies start with a sluggish or declining sales graph, which is then dramatically reversed by the new campaign. Marvell's case is different. It was already a leading brand in the rapidly growing market for low-power digital storage chips.
Now they were hungry for recognition.
We were tasked with making Marvell famous for making our hyper-connected ‘Always-On’ world a more energy efficient one.
After spending a month with the sales team, we discovered that potential customers almost always thought they were being called on by Marvel Entertainment, so we rather cheekily persuaded the legendary co-creator of Marvell's famous namesake to become our Brand Ambassador.
"Celebrities are different from the rest of
us mortals. Everything is magnified:
money problems, egos, schedules, legalities. But we happen to like working with people who ain’t entirely normal; when properly used, they can turn a routine event into an instant newsmaker."
George Lois
Stan Lee was joined by celebrity environmentalist's Adrian Grenier and Mark Ruffalo at CES in Las Vegas, SXSW in Austin and Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, and together they generated a ton of publicity for Marvell's energy efficient technology.
As a result of our efforts to promote energy efficiency, we were invited to travel with Governator Schwarzenegger on a trade mission to Asia, and, with great fanfare, he opened Marvell's new design center in Shanghai.
The end result?
-
Sales in enterprise networking, carrier infrastructure, and consumer segments increased 56%, 28%, and 20%, respectively.
-
Net revenue surged by 48% to $3.55 billion.
-
The "Smart Electronics Act" was introduced by U.S. Congressman for the 17th District of California and Silicon Valley, Mike Honda.
