We design insightful creative that can build brands and drive response, as well as hardworking direct response TV adverts.

Janfranco Caro – Head of Brand and Creative, Animal Friends Insurance
The Happy Hour team excels at developing ads that drive response. From brand strategy, to creative concepting, to post-production execution, the team constantly asks, "what will create the most volume for the business?" As a result, we've seen a 48% increase in direct response website visits since launching our campaign! This improvement is despite a high frequency media buying strategy, which could easily lead to creative tire. Thanks to Happy Hour's experience, we have maximized our TV spend and created an effective campaign to drive our business forward.”
