Groasis Waterboxx: Program
Referred by the International Trade Director for the Netherlands,
kf!g was asked to create a market for a Dutch green planting invention,
the Groasis Waterboxx.
Once retained by inventor Peter Hoff, kf!g’s mission was to create
additional international recognition in the United States through
product launches in three different categories.
Our task was to create large scale programs in: Government for
Reforestation, Agriculture for Planting and Education for Ecology.
From these programs we generated articles and produced
partnerships to create brand awareness and customer acquisition.
Groasis: Government:
kf!g kicked off our year-long project at the California Green
Summit with Governor Schwarzenegger. We established programs
with the National Parks, Bureau of Land Management, Wildlands
Conservancy, City of Sonoma and City of Palm Springs
kf!g designed kiosk at National Parks
Groasis: Agriculture:
kf!g chose Napa’s Robert MondaviWinery, Sonoma’s
BucklinWinery,The Sonoma Ecology Center, Robert Mon-
davi Institute and UC Davis (the premiere agriculture university
in the United States) for high visiability planting projects which
would appeal to the international press.

Groasis: Education
kf!g created a Waterboxx science teaching program which was taught
at the Palm Springs and Sonoma Unified School Districts prior
to planting. These programs are now being taught around the globe.
Groasis: Media
These programs resulted in incredible media placements including
Popular Science, Scientific America, Los Angeles Times, The
Washington Post, etc. The Waterboxx was chosen by Popular Science
as the winner of the annual Innovation Award beating out the iPad
and the electric Porsche.
Groasis: Partnerships kf!g established business introduction

Heidi Roizen: Program
Recommended by an advertising agency to Heidi Roizen,
“One of Silicon Valley’s Most Influential Women” (Forbes Magazine),
kf!g was retained to launch her new CD called “Skinny Songs.”
Heidi, provided a wealth of material for kf!g. An acclaimed über
successful serial entrepreneur, corporate executive, venture capitalist
and faculty member of Stanford University, she is famous
for her intuitive understanding of market opportunities.
Besides all of these accomplishments, she loved music. Wanting to lose
weight she searched for music to get her“pumped”for exercising.
Unable to find this type of music, she decided to develop her own lyrics
and tempos to inspire women to have fun exercising. She later
produced a CD in Nashville and hired kf!g to launch it.
kf!g developed a strategic program which addressed women, weight
loss and the business media. It was our creative story telling of Heidi’s
incredible talent and vision and ultimate weight loss through exercising
to her own music, which resulted in high profile interviews from Kara
Swisher’s All Things Digital to Fox Business with Neil Cavuto, Martha
Stewart to Oprah Magazine, Bloomberg to the New York Times to
CNN Health International…kf!g maximized every media opportunity.
A true Visionary who “gets” marketing to the ninth degree and
appreciating the intricacies and hurdles, Heidi was a delight to work
with. Reaching all goals, we developed an international highly
effective campaign seamless.
She is currently the Operating Partner of the prestigious
venture capital firm, Draper, Fisher and Jurvetson (DFJ). In
addition she serves on the boards of the British media
conglomerate, The Daily Mail and General Trust, and Share
This and XTime.

Space Hacker Workshop with Citizen’s in Science, kf!g worked
directly with XCOR, Made In Space, Citizen In Space, SETI,
Infinity Aerospace, along with researchers from the University
of Texas and the University of Central Florida. kf!g organized a
media campaign which achieved wide coverage through articles
appearing in Wired Magazine, Space.com, Scientific American,

Later , when SVSC co-sponsored a suborbital conference with
CASIS, we worked with Zero Gravity Solutions Inc., Infinity
Aerospace, Blue Origin, Space X, Tech Shop, XCOR, New
Space Global, Made in Space and Possum to have a successful
event. NBC’s Tech Now, Bloomberg/ Business Week, Bay Area
News Group, Silicon Valley.com, Wall Street Journal and Virgin

Chief Marketing Officer of Intelius, Susan Koehler and founder
Naveen Jain to represent him and heighten public awareness
of his many interests: CEO and Founder of Intelius,
Chairman of Moon Express, X Prize, Co-Chairman of
Global Development and Education Trustee of Singularity
University and sponsor of Kairos Society and iCareweCare .
kf!g overall message would be that Naveen was an
Entrepreneur, Visionary and Philanthropist.
Naveen Jain: Entrepreneur
kf!g has worked to increase public and corporate awareness
of Naveen by placing him as a speaker and working with
conferences like the Aspen Brain Forum, the Pivot Conference,
SV Forum, the Economist Ideas Conference and Global Entrepreneur
Week. In addition, kf!g arranged bi-monthly salons for celebrated
Founders and CEOs to meet Naveen in a casual environment to share
ideas and create new ones. All along, kf!g had been positioning
Naveen Jain as a leading Entrepreneur and Innovator.
After kf!g’s introduction, Naveen Jain

Education Initiative .
Naveen Jain: Philanthropist-Singularity University,
X Prize and iCareweCare.
Naveen Jain's many philanthropic interests needed to be acknow-
ledged. For this to occur, kf!g created unique campaigns around
each organization.
We promoted Naveen's appointment as a Trustee of Singularity Uni-
versity and his awarding 2 scholarships to leading African women
for SU's graduate students program. As X Prize Co-Chair of Global
Development and Education, he spearheaded many ventures
to find solutions to agriculture, poverty, health and clean water.
We continued to work on major launches in these areas. After sponsor-
ing iCareweCare, a student run social network, he had kf!g create a

Naveen Jain: Visionary- Moon Express
kf!g positioned Naveen Jain, Chairman of Moon Express
(ME) , a Lunar Lander system/company, as a leading
contender for the $30M Google Lunar X PRIZE. To cre-
ate massive media attention, we planned a spectacular
flight test event to occur on the same day when the final
U.S. Space Shuttle "Atlantis" landed. We crafted
story ideas to romance the subject of moon exploration...
the historic end of one era and the beginning of another
in commercial space exploration... the merits of mining
the moon for much needed resources, etc.
Through innovative story telling, an overwhelming num-
ber of press attended the Moon Express product launch,
which resulted in a front page story in the New York Times,
as well as being featured in Bloomberg, The Wall Street
Journal, CNET, BBC, Forbes, NBC, Los Angeles Times,
Fox, among others.
Cameras and reporters jostled at Moon
Express launch to interview Naveen Jain

Ex’pression Center for New Media: Program
(now Ex’pression College for Digital Arts)
Ex’pression hired kf!g to create a strategic reputation
development plan to acquire students, attract qualified
teachers and guest lecturers. As the Ex’pression Center
offered degrees in Sound Arts, Animation & Visual Effects,
and Motion Graphic Design, we crafted campaigns under
each degree to establish industry recognition and student
enrollment. Examples of some programs are below:
Sound Arts: We facilitated a series of student-produced con-
certs partnering with radio stations for listener apprecia-
tion. Offering a student-operated, state-of-the-art sound
facility for live concerts, participating artists included Jon
Bon Jovi,Train,The Call, Michelle Branch, Chicago, Kid
Rock and Uncle Kracker. kf!g arranged for each performer
to be interviewed by television and print. This then
increased student interest resulting in enrollment..
Animation&VisualEffects: Established guest lecturer
programs with Pixar, ILM, and LucasFilm to speak at the
school. Eventually, some of them became guest teachers.
This also opened a doorway for student placement at top
studios, driving industry interest and student enrollment.
Mikey and Bill Champlin (Chicago)
We created artwork and content for the National
Blonde Day website. To “Stand Up to Blonde Oppres-
sion,” we had Vidal Sassoon Salons take people blonde
that day, for free. We then established partnerships
to promote national platforms and increase visibility
in 12 major markets. We initiated a media campaign,
which resulted in significant international media.The
result… kf!g increased business for theVidal Sassoon
Salons by 11% over a three-month campaign. Our
campaign was highly successful and we did a
repeat performance with MGM for Legally Blonde 2.
Result:Over 21 years representing Sassoon...BILLIONS!
Vidal Sassoon: Program
Hair is basically brown, black, red, blonde, long, or short.
For Vidal Sassoon to continue to be in the forefront of the
public demand, kf!g created strategic marketing and
customer acquisition campaigns. For twenty years we
developed innovative programs that drove business.
In addition, during this body of work, kf!g served as
consultants to theVidal Sassoon management team on
two revisions of the corporate identity and the reposition-
ing and design of the new product line.
How did we maintain a twenty-year client? By creating
hundreds of successful programs for VS that drove
customer acquisition from the first "ambush make-over" to
the first celebrity stories of “getting ready for the Oscars.”
The following is an example of one program:
The Vidal Sassoon brand was stagnating and losing
its luster. Our job was to refresh the brand as part of
the “Now Generation.” To that end we approached MGM
to secure a partnership for their launch of Legally Blonde.
In keeping with the playfulness of the movie, we worked
with MGM to establish “National Blonde Day” to coin-
cide with their launch date.
Vidal Sassoon and major media
Bio Arts International: Program
kf!g was retained by Bio Arts International to promote the first
commercial dog cloning company in the world.
Beginning with their first auction, kf!g created a media
strategy for their auction of 5 dog cloning slots. As this
was an unusual auction, kf!g developed a unique program
for global coverage. In this we promoted both the technology
and the founder of Bio Arts.
Trakr, days later, discovered the last survivor under 30 feet of
rubble. For his accomplishments,Trakr was named one of history’s most
heroic animals.
Bio Arts International had a landslide of press from CNN to ABC, CBS to
Herald Tribune to People Magazine. Through kf!g's innovation and client
dedication, again we helped our client make history.
We alerted the public to the opportunity to clone one’s dog
for the beginning auction price of $150,000 and announced the auction
date. By the time the auction concluded, press coverage caused all cloning
slots to sell.
Continuing the press frenzy we then facilitated BioArts management’s
concept to offer one more slot for those who could not afford the
auction entry level bidding price. The person who wrote the most
“clone worthy” essay, explaining why their dog deserved to be
cloned, would win a free cloning service of their beloved dog.
once-in-a-lifetime "Golden Clone Giveaway.” Thslot
Although many of the entries were noteworthy, it was Trakr who
stole the judge's hearts and won the contest. Trakr, a German
Shepherd police dog, along with Canadian police officer
James Symington, rushed to the scene of the 9/11
attacks on the day the Twin Towers collapsed.
Result: Globally over one billion impressions

Deep Flight Aviator/Autodesk: Program
kf!g was retained by Autodesk and Deep Flight Aviator
to launch the first two-person submarine.
Product Launch
kf!g created compelling story lines, a unique event and a visually
creative product launch which resulted in spectacular international
media coverage.
kf!g posed that, in the future, will we fly by air or by sea? We suggest-
ed that this submarine could be the next green mode of transporta-
tion as it burns clean and that this may be the “sports car” of the open
seas.We conveyed to the marine scientific community that the Aviator’s
unique design will enable economical, long-range search and
survey work for ocean science and exploration.
kf!g staged the event at a San Francisco pier with the Golden
Gate Bridge as a backdrop. Press from DiscoveryTV to FujiTV, from
National Geographic to the London Times, BBC to ABC's Good Morning
America, covered the event. kf!g created solid media “whys for
the buys” in story telling and event production, leaving the press want-
ing more!
Result:Close to one billion global impressions
As the first two-person submarine to fly like a jet underwater, kf!g
developed story lines around new modes of transportation, ecology,
technology and science. All of these stories were developed to at-
tract the press to this JulesVerne like vessel that could dive 1,500 feet,
reach speeds of up to eight knots and barrel-roll with the grace of a
dolphin. Even our invitation to the event was the drawing of the
Deep Flight Aviator, doodled on a napkin by legendary sub-
mersible craft engineer and inventor, Graham Hawkes.

International Art Expo/Levi’s/ eBay/Youth Arts:
Program
kf!g was retained to launch International Art Expo (IAE), the larg-
est art exhibit in the world, in San Francisco rather than in New
York. To establish this new venue, we created a multi-channel
marketing program.
Product Launch
To maximize press exposure, create community credibility,
generate customer acquisition and media for the show,
kf!g arranged for Levi’s and eBay to partner with IAE to raise
money for the national charity, Youth Arts. We proposed to our
partners that we would have famous artists from around the
world paint Levi’s jean jackets, that during the show, would be
auctioned off on eBay to raise money for Youth Arts. To market
this, we created the FIRST "live auction" on eBay working with
eBay staff and over 100 international artist painted Levi’s jackets.
kf!g staff created each auction page and worked with eBay to
implement the "live auction" as eBay had never done this before.
For story telling, kf!g targeted art, technology, fashion and
lifestyle sections of print and TV, but we wanted more.
It was then that we approached Levi’s to do an exhibit of the jackets prior
to the Expo so that the public would have a chance to view them. As a
win-win for IAE,Youth Arts, Levi’s, eBay and the artists, the jackets were
displayed in the windows of Levi’s flagship store on Union Square in San
Francisco.
We arranged for 10 of the artists to teach art in different schools around
San Francisco. This also created a tremendous amount of press and drove
audience attendance.
On the day IAE opened, kf!g had press arrive to paint with children, pho-
tograph the exhibit, interview artists, etc. The program and auction were
such a major success, Levi’s asked if they could have the exhibit at their
corporate headquarters. The following year Levi’s launched their own
jacket painting contest and eBay incorporated "live auctions" into their prod-
uct service. So once again… kf!g’s innovations made history.
Result:Multi-millions of global impressions

Isha Foundation: Celebrity Outreach
To create the public and media attention necessary to
launch a campaign, for some clients celebrity endorsements
are advantageous. For this reason, kf!g produced three celeb-
rity hosted dinners for Sadhguru featuring some of the most
influential people in the entertainment community... Anjelica
Huston, Oliver Stone, Anil Kapur, Lauren Hutton, Amy Smart,
Jacqueline Bisset, Lisa Edelstein, Minnie Driver, Robert Chart-
house, Bradley Cooper, Rumer Willis, etc.
Isha Foundation: Program
Recommended by Heidi Roizen, kf!g was retained
by India’s prestigious Isha Foundation and it’s spiritual
founder, Sadhguru. It was our objective to heighten global
awareness of their respected work in the environment,
education, humanitarian efforts and Sadhguru’s thought and
spiritual leader accomplishments. A several tiered media plan
was then created, agreed upon and implemented.

what they say about us....
“When Peter Laanen recommended Mikey
and Ed to launch the Groasis Waterboxx, it was
the best tip I ever received. They did more than
agreed upon, always looking out for my best
interests. We have had millions of media place-
ment around the world and they have created
partnerships with everyone we needed for the
right kind of exposure… from the National Park
Service to the Bureau of Land Management to
Robert Mondavi Winery and UC Davis.”
– PIETER HOFF, INVENTOR GROASIS WATERBOXX
“No one delivers press like kf!g! We were so
impressed with the coverage for Moon Express,
reaching close to 300mm. If you want press, I
cannot recommend kf!g highly enough”
- SUSAN KOEHLER, CHIEF MARKETING OFFICER
INTELIUS
– HEIDI ROIZEN, Operating Partner DFJ, Board Member DMGT,
ShareThis, XTime, Stanford Professor of Entrepreneurship
“Mikey and Ed are as energetic and creative as
they come. When Ex’pression College was looking
for media exposure the decision was quickly
made to hire kf!g. And boy, did we get
articles and interviews in the best papers,
magazines, radio and TV. Michele achieved
great coverage on our concerts with artists like
Jon Bon Jovi , Tori Amos, The Call, Train and
more. I have since recommended her firm
several times and have never been disappointed.
I love kf!g.”
– PETER LAANEN, CEO EX’PRESSION COLLEGE,
INTERNATIONALTRADE DIRECTOR FOR

We initiated a media campaign, which resulted in significant international media.The result… kf!g increased business for theVidal Sassoon Salons by 11% over a three-month campaign. Our campaign was highly successful and we did a repeat performance with MGM for Legally Blonde 2. Result:Over 21 years representing Sassoon...BILLIONS! Vidal Sassoon: Program Hair is basically brown, black, red, blonde, long, or short. For Vidal Sassoon to continue to be in the forefront of the public demand, kf!g created strategic marketing and customer acquisition campaigns. For twenty years we developed innovative programs that drove business. In addition, during this body of work, kf!g served as consultants to theVidal Sassoon management team on two revisions of the corporate identity and the reposition- ing and design of the new product line. How did we maintain a twenty-year client? By creating hundreds of successful programs for VS that drove customer acquisition from the first "ambush make-over" to the first celebrity stories of “getting ready for the Oscars.” The following is an example of one program: The Vidal Sassoon brand was stagnating and losing its luster. Our job was to refresh the brand as part of the “Now Generation.” To that end we approached MGM to secure a partnership for their launch of Legally Blonde. In keeping with the playfulness of the movie, we worked with MGM to establish “National Blonde Day” to coin- cide with their launch date. Vidal Sassoon and major media
  • 20. Bio Arts International: Program kf!g was retained by Bio Arts International to promote the first commercial dog cloning company in the world. Beginning with their first auction, kf!g created a media strategy for their auction of 5 dog cloning slots. As this was an unusual auction, kf!g developed a unique program for global coverage. In this we promoted both the technology and the founder of Bio Arts. Trakr, days later, discovered the last survivor under 30 feet of rubble. For his accomplishments,Trakr was named one of history’s most heroic animals. Bio Arts International had a landslide of press from CNN to ABC, CBS to Herald Tribune to People Magazine. Through kf!g's innovation and client dedication, again we helped our client make history. We alerted the public to the opportunity to clone one’s dog for the beginning auction price of $150,000 and announced the auction date. By the time the auction concluded, press coverage caused all cloning slots to sell. Continuing the press frenzy we then facilitated BioArts management’s concept to offer one more slot for those who could not afford the auction entry level bidding price. The person who wrote the most “clone worthy” essay, explaining why their dog deserved to be cloned, would win a free cloning service of their beloved dog. once-in-a-lifetime "Golden Clone Giveaway.” Thslot Although many of the entries were noteworthy, it was Trakr who stole the judge's hearts and won the contest. Trakr, a German Shepherd police dog, along with Canadian police officer James Symington, rushed to the scene of the 9/11 attacks on the day the Twin Towers collapsed. Result: Globally over one billion impressions Trakr and cloned pups Besides the inside spread this also ran on the cover of People Magazine

Product Launch kf!g created compelling story lines, a unique event and a visually creative product launch which resulted in spectacular international media coverage. kf!g posed that, in the future, will we fly by air or by sea? We suggest- ed that this submarine could be the next green mode of transporta- tion as it burns clean and that this may be the “sports car” of the open seas.We conveyed to the marine scientific community that the Aviator’s unique design will enable economical, long-range search and survey work for ocean science and exploration. kf!g staged the event at a San Francisco pier with the Golden Gate Bridge as a backdrop. Press from DiscoveryTV to FujiTV, from National Geographic to the London Times, BBC to ABC's Good Morning America, covered the event. kf!g created solid media “whys for the buys” in story telling and event production, leaving the press want- ing more! Result:Close to one billion global impressions As the first two-person submarine to fly like a jet underwater, kf!g developed story lines around new modes of transportation, ecology, technology and science. All of these stories were developed to at- tract the press to this JulesVerne like vessel that could dive 1,500 feet, reach speeds of up to eight knots and barrel-roll with the grace of a dolphin. Even our invitation to the event was the drawing of the Deep Flight Aviator, doodled on a napkin by legendary sub- mersible craft engineer and inventor, Graham Hawkes. Press fights for interviews Sub lowers into San Francisco Bay
  • 22. International Art Expo/Levi’s/ eBay/Youth Arts: Program kf!g was retained to launch International Art Expo (IAE), the larg- est art exhibit in the world, in San Francisco rather than in New York. To establish this new venue, we created a multi-channel marketing program. Product Launch To maximize press exposure, create community credibility, generate customer acquisition and media for the show, kf!g arranged for Levi’s and eBay to partner with IAE to raise money for the national charity, Youth Arts. We proposed to our partners that we would have famous artists from around the world paint Levi’s jean jackets, that during the show, would be auctioned off on eBay to raise money for Youth Arts. To market this, we created the FIRST "live auction" on eBay working with eBay staff and over 100 international artist painted Levi’s jackets. kf!g staff created each auction page and worked with eBay to implement the "live auction" as eBay had never done this before. For story telling, kf!g targeted art, technology, fashion and lifestyle sections of print and TV, but we wanted more. It was then that we approached Levi’s to do an exhibit of the jackets prior to the Expo so that the public would have a chance to view them. As a win-win for IAE,Youth Arts, Levi’s, eBay and the artists, the jackets were displayed in the windows of Levi’s flagship store on Union Square in San Francisco. We arranged for 10 of the artists to teach art in different schools around San Francisco. This also created a tremendous amount of press and drove audience attendance. On the day IAE opened, kf!g had press arrive to paint with children, pho- tograph the exhibit, interview artists, etc. The program and auction were such a major success, Levi’s asked if they could have the exhibit at their corporate headquarters. The following year Levi’s launched their own jacket painting contest and eBay incorporated "live auctions" into their prod- uct service. So once again… kf!g’s innovations made history.
