Geico + Walmart; The Martin Agency + R/GA

Walmart has supposedly selected R/GA to handle its digital property, SaveMoneyLiveBetter.com. AdAge pegs the project as a $40M campaign and couldn’t get anyone to confirm the win from the agency nor the brand. So, you know. This one is a rumor has it.

Meanwhile, The Martin Agency, the lead agency on the account, has had a definitive win for one of their clients, Geico. The shop has been paying internet starts to create videos in which the Geico lizard can be seen in the background. In one case, Gary Brolsma, creator of the “Numa Numa Dance”, was paid $2,000 for his spot. Watch it above. In two days, the YouTube posting of the vid has clocked over 280,000 views. Nice.
