OVERVIEW

Description

When we analyzed Twitter feeds, we found that women who lay around the poolside liked looking out for handsome men.

So we had the night show makeup artists put makeup on the not-so-attractive lifeguards and turn them into handsome lifeguard new media.

We then spread this information with PR and was able to attract women to the pool.
