charlieuniformtango teamed up with new Milwaukee-based agency Hold Fast Co., and newly formed creative alliance, Dallas-based “Bill and Todd” (Bill Milkereit, writer and Todd Tucker, art director - both 20+ year veterans of The Richards Group), on a new campaign for Johnsonville Sausage just in time for the southern tailgating season. The campaign, featuring a full array of TV and radio spots, introduces “The Tongsman” – a heroic term coined by Bill and Todd. To help capture the spirit of the South, the campaign was shot in Atlanta. “Even though we focused on the grill and the sausages, we wanted the spots to come across as authentically Southern, and the Georgia landscape added to that feeling,” said Todd Tucker, Bill and Todd art director.
