"We have a team of 2 people on our staff, dedicated to social media, and without Sammy’s exper3se, ideas and strategy, we would have not been able to get our social media pages off the ground. We grew our “likes” over 6,000 percent in one month. It’s not about a consultant, it’s about focus, strategy and ideas and I have not met a more crea3ve and innova3ve person in all my years in media. I would highly recommend Sammy and his company to anyone looking to start or grow their social media rela3onships.” Tami Ostmark, Director of Marke3ng, KSL TV – Salt Lake City, UT

It’s not what you cover, but uncover to create something that people value, remember, and repeat. – Sammy Simpson
Sammy created Take A Number Sports, an innova3ve new experien3al promo3on model centered squarely on fan sa3sfac3on and reten3on. Using the powerful emo3on of being a part of the sports environment – fans can par3cipate in the game by following an individual winning number. It works as an alterna3ve to fantasy sports for the casual fan who likes the game for the social experience instead of the hard-‐core sta3s3cs. It makes watching sports more interes3ng and builds a network of valued connec3ons between fans aligned around a number, connected to a team, and also to each other. Take A Number Sports features simple game mechanics that anyone (young or old) can easily understand to engage groups of fans around the social experience of a big game event.

Experien.al Events
Sammy managed and helped produce Purgatorio for CBS RADIO. The month long event was the Haunted House experience re-‐interpreted for sophis3cated urban adults in New York. Hour 1: First Act The audience is immersed in the experience from the moment of entering the show.
As they move through the venue, they experience a museum of Halloween oddi3es and exhibits. Hour 2: Second Act The drama and spectacle of theater is combined with the energy and excitement of a club as the best variety acts from all over the world put on a show developed exclusively by The Box for the event. Hour 3: Grand Finale The crowd is immersed fully in an interac3ve experience as the performers leave the stage to play and party with the aiendees.

When launching a “green” ini3a3ve, Sammy created a unique consumer experience that only a music-‐centric brand could deliver. By focusing on backstage “Green Rooms” from some the most legendary local music venues in Los Angeles, and going inside ar3st and band buses converted for bio fuels and more, a hired environmental expert was able to take a tour that was captured on video to recommend changes that could be made to help the environment. The listener was able to see inside and also gain prac3cal 3ps on how they could help too.

Synched with the live audio feed, users could discover everything they want to know about over 1,000 ar3sts at a single source. A new experience started in each moment a new song was played on the radio and through online audio streaming.

Highway Texting Campaign
A campaign to encourage the federal and state government to update highway rest stops across the U.S. into mobile messaging centers, or "text stops." Sammy’s goal is to bring together a coali3on of partners to help evolve the areas into more than a place to just stretch your legs and take a bathroom break. By designing and implemen3ng effec3ve updates, and crea3ng social currency around the experience of using these areas, the "rest stop" can evolve into a mobile messaging center that will make a difference in saving lives.

Rated R Dirty LiUle Word
Adver3sing Week 2010 was the backdrop as radio sta3ons in the New York Market united to stage a new conversa3on about the understated medium and all its dimensions that can be employed on behalf of adver3sers. “RATED R – A Showcase of The Dirty Liile Word” dispelled some old percep3ons of the “dirty liile word” radio. Sammy Simpson served as the crea3ve commiiee chairperson and helped to not only conceptualize but also produce the event.

Rare Nerve The Rare Nerve tour combines music and ac3on sports to create a whole new experien3al culture. Example: Shaun White and Linkin Park perform together. The event features the ramps, jumps and stunts that have been scorned by most, but now the best come together to aiempt them and the one who master them will win $1,000,000! Ideas • A famous band/ar3st is combined with a Rare Nerve biker,
cyclist or skater to perform a rou3ne where music and the stunt are combined for an amazing set..
• The stage could actually feature ramps and while the ar3st/band is performing, the Rare Nerve athlete is performing too.
• It opens the band/ar3st to a whole new audience to buy their music.
• The Rare Nerve village/event features taioo ar3sts, piercing ar3sts, illusionists like Chris Angel (which have a Rare Nerve vibe), merchandise, equipment, gaming, meet and greets and more.
