Hotpockets

Gus the Gut, a wise-talking stomach-shaped puppet we helped hashtag#client Hot Pockets create, bridges the gap between tweens and parent communication, letting busy parents know that Hot Pockets will keep their kids fed.

We embraced teenage behavior and humor, translating hunger into the unmistakable sound of a full, happy belly, one that says “thank you” after eating Hot Pockets.
