Beaumont Health brand campaign focuses on the fighting spirit of patients

"Our new campaign is based on six research studies involving about 1,300 area consumers," said Mark Bohen, senior vice president, chief marketing and communications officer, Beaumont Health. "The health care world has changed, Beaumont has changed, and consumers have new expectations to be more involved in their health. As the most preferred health care system in the region, Beaumont is uniquely suited to meet these new consumer needs with our connected network of medical experts, high-quality care, and access to the most advanced medical resources and technologies through our broad geographic footprint."

Beaumont's new 30-second, "Never Settle," TV ad, airing in Southeast Michigan during halftime of Sunday's NFL championship game, captures the fighting spirit of Detroit and features Beaumont patients, physicians and employees, a celebrity voice with Detroit hometown ties, and a locally produced musical score.

"The Doner team is so excited to launch this new campaign for Beaumont Health," said David DeMuth, CEO and president, Doner.  "As long-time members of the greater Detroit community, we all have stories of how Beaumont has made a profound impact on the lives of family and friends. This campaign was inspired by those stories and the 'Never Settle' shared values among Beaumont's staff, patients and the community."

Detroit native Courtney B. Vance, who won his first Emmy Award for his lead role as attorney Johnnie Cochran in FX's "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story," is the voice of the new Beaumont Health ad.

The ad's music was produced by Yessian Music, a Metro Detroit-based global collective of producers, composers, music supervisors, research creatives and recording artists.

Celebrated documentarians Ben Lowy and Marvi Lacar of Pogo Pictures based in Decatur, Georgia, directed, filmed and photographed the TV ad and associated print, outdoor and digital components of the campaign.

The Beaumont campaign launched with outdoor, radio and digital ads on Jan. 30 and will continue throughout the year.
