UFS

Main Store TV Ads

UFS is a Peoria institution. They’ve served Peoria and the surrounding communities for decades, offering an eclectic mix of products that’s hard to find anywhere else. From furniture, appliances and flooring to home goods, overstock finds and alcohol, the main store brings an unusually diverse assortment under one roof. That variety is a selling point, but it also presents a challenge, communicating the value of such different products to a broad audience.

These TV spots were created specifically for the main store, using targeted messaging and creative promotions to capture attention, showcase the deals, and give shoppers a reason to explore the store.

Commercials use a mix of custom animations, client-provided video, manufacturer assets, and MW footage.

UFS has always been known for unique finds, unexpected treasures, and tremendous value. With an ever-changing assortment of products, every visit offers something new to discover. For decades, “It’s All About the Deal” captured the heart of the UFS promise. Our challenge was to build on that foundation, reinforcing the value shoppers expect from UFS while bringing the fun of the hunt to the forefront.

We’re more than a store, we’re a place to explore.

MW developed a tagline and treasure map animation that captures both sides of the experience: “We’re more than a store, we’re a place to explore.” Because at UFS, there’s a surprise around every corner, a treasure down every aisle, and shopping fun throughout the store.

Station IDs

UFS station IDs were created to build brand recognition through short :05 and :10 spots airing on local television, primarily around the news. These brief, memorable messages kept the UFS name in front of viewers, reinforcing brand familiarity and maintaining a consistent presence between larger promotional campaigns.

“Clark, that’s the gift that keeps on giving the whole year.”
