Sling TV has named The Martin Agency as its new agency of record, managing strategic planning, creative development and production efforts for the brand, and marking the agency’s third win in 2018. The partnership begins with this spot which launches the “We Are Slingers” campaign.
Titled “Couples Over,” this spot was directed by Steve Miller of Radical Media. In it, one couple asks another if they are slingers with the double entendre “slingers/swingers” connotation underscoring the proceedings.
However, the bottom line is that if you’re a slinger, you’re taking full advantage of Sling TV and its flexibility as a live streaming service.
