Jewelers Mutual gets emotional in new ad campaign
Targeted at consumers as well as the trade, “For All Its Worth” emphasizes people’s personal connection to their jewelry.

Neenah, Wis.--Jewelers Mutual Insurance Company has a new advertising campaign that’s directed at both the trade and consumers. And the message behind the campaign is this: When consumers are insuring their jewelry, they’re not just insuring another object but, rather, protecting a piece of jewelry that symbolizes their bond with a loved one and the moments they’ve shared.
Created with agency partner McGarryBowen, a Chicago-based advertising agency, the consumer-facing part of the campaign features real couples reflecting on their love stories and the many moments that led up to their engagement.
The 60-second online video for the campaign shows a newly engaged couple talking about the experiences they’ve shared, with the man remarking that “It’s the memories we’ve made. And the ones we still need to. So, yeah, it’s definitely more than a ring.”
The consumer campaign includes print, digital, radio and the online video, with the overarching theme extending to the jewelry trade with creative geared toward jewelry businesses, manufacturers and wholesalers as well.
