Campaign Exploring the Sustainable Future of Bitcoin
CleanSpark was undergoing a significant transformation, shifting its focus from being an energy microgrid company to becoming a prominent player in the bitcoin mining industry. This drastic pivot necessitated a rebranding effort. My team was tasked with leading the creative charge, not only to rebrand the company but also to effectively communicate this new identity to current and prospective investors.
Our primary challenge was how to convey this radical shift to our existing investors. CleanSpark had established itself as an energy microgrid company dedicated to providing efficient and sustainable energy solutions. Transitioning to bitcoin mining, an industry often criticized for its high energy consumption and perceived lack of social responsibility, required careful and strategic messaging. Our brand's value was now entirely dependent on perception, aiming to attract and retain investor interest. We needed to position ourselves as the most responsible and sustainable bitcoin miners in North America, leveraging our background in energy efficiency and sustainability.
We devised a sustainability campaign aimed at reintroducing CleanSpark to our existing audience while establishing our presence in the cryptocurrency space. Key elements of our strategy included: Content Strategy, New Tagline, Core Values and Vision, Brand Update, Informative Video Content and Event Presence. The "For a better world" campaign aimed to highlight our dedication to improving the planet by investing in low-carbon energy sources. CleanSpark's vision has always been to facilitate abundant, affordable, clean energy. Bitcoin mining was an area ripe for innovation. Our goal was to portray the narrative that bitcoin mining can play a crucial role in driving these efforts.
Our rebranding efforts were met with positive reception. Members of the crypto community began to refer to us as the "good guys" of bitcoin mining. Our ESG initiatives demonstrated our commitment to enhancing the communities we operate in, creating jobs in rural areas, and stabilizing local grids. We showed that bitcoin could be a force for good, providing financial access without government control and contributing to community improvement. Within a year, we rebranded the company, updated all marketing materials and the website, and effectively differentiated ourselves from other miners in America. This transformation elevated us from being newcomers to one of the top bitcoin miners in the country.
Launched a new brand campaign for Las Vegas was a monumental task, especially when it meant replacing the iconic "What happens here, stays here" slogan.
