PRUDENTIAL - DAY ONE
In 2011, over 10,000 Baby Boomers began turning 65 every single day, marking the start of a demographic shift unlike any in history, all unfolding amid one of the most uncertain financial climates in decades.
To cut through the clichés of aging, we avoided the typical salt-and-pepper models and beachside bathtubs. Instead, we launched Day One—a campaign that brought humanity and urgency to the numbers by telling real, relatable stories. It was a bold and timely response to a historic moment.
