CHICAGO, IL, March 03, 2014 (Press-News.org) Chem-Dry, the world's leading carpet cleaner with over 2,000 locally-owned franchises in the U.S., has called upon Chicago-based Michael Walters Advertising (MWA), to develop a new brand identity that will focus on the healthy and innovative method of Chem-Dry's service.
Based on consumer research done over the last year, MWA worked with the Chem-Dry team to develop and implement a strategic creative and marketing communications program to support their vision of healthier carpet cleaning.
The new tagline MWA developed, "Your Healthy Home Starts Here," utilizes Chem-Dry's method of using a green-certified solution and the power of carbonation to deliver a deeper, healthier carpet cleaning.

MWA created a brand strategy and built a platform to deliver the message via custom photography, print, direct mail, digital, mobile and outdoor media.
The marketing plan will focus on traditional and digital advertising to deliver Chem-Dry's message that a clean, healthy home is a happy home. MWA is currently preparing to launch three media programs for Chem-Dry in mobile, social and direct mail marketing.
