There is a lot to love about Montana Lottery’s Big Sky Bonus game, including some of the best odds of any Montana Lottery game. The game was designed after extensive market research to produce the one thing probable players said they wanted: Lots of winners and meaningful, but not enormous, jackpots. Nothing about the game design was left to chance. With a refresh of the game happening, the Lottery wanted to build some excitement around the game changes that ultimately would create more winners and larger jackpots. There was also a logo refresh for the game, which featured more lighthearted and whimsical graphics to go along with the game’s fun and excitement.

The goal for the campaign was to be bold and eye-catching and drive home the clockwork nature of winning in the game. To do this, we offered viewers a sneak peek into the magical Big Sky Bonus factory, where the factory workers are busy making winners every day. Likely players didn’t need to know the math behind the game; they know how a factory works and our campaign was driving home the notion that Big Sky Bonus is a winning factory. Now that Big Sky Bonus is offering bigger jackpots and creating more winners, the Big Sky Bonus team is busier than ever. Luckily, they are just as excited as they share the joy of winning with players.

The ad campaign contributed to a very successful product relaunch with revenue increasing YOY by 29%.
Marketing motivation and Wendt shenanigans worthy of a subscription.
There aren’t many people who can say they’ve spent nearly three decades at the same company—much less at an ad agency that’s been around since sliced bread hit the shelves. Lucky for us, we have Merle. Officially, she’s our Media Buyer. Unofficially? She’s Wendt’s resident history keeper, snack drawer curator, and all-around low-key legend.
A strong brand is more than design elements or a clever tagline—it’s the story you tell and the connection you build. Every interaction shapes how your audience sees you, which is why consistency matters…
User-generated content, engagement rate, native content articles. Whether you’re trying to boost your marketing vocab, wow at your next meeting, or impress your boss (no judgment), we’ve got the go-to guide to get you there! Grab your notecards—we’re covering everything from banner ads to media kits…yes, they still make those.
Chicken suits, patio hangs, the occasional corn hole tournament—behind Wendt’s 96 years of excellence is a culture that values joy just as much as it does hard work. And few embody that spirit better than our administrative coordinator (and resident Bob Ross impressionist), Dallas. While her task load is a balancing act across our accounting, media, and production departments, where she really shines is bringing the fun (and a spontaneous dance party) to all the moments in between. From staying organized to keeping things light, Dallas is breaking down the heart, humor, and hustle behind her day-to-day.
