From Family Legacy to a Unified Regional Brand
Campagni Auto Group has spent more than four decades building something rare in the automotive world: a business rooted in community, generosity and a real connection with its customers. When Campagni partnered with Miley Studios as its agency of record, the goal was clear — help them bring that legacy into the modern era with a unified brand, a cohesive voice and storytelling that reflects the heart behind the trusted Campagni name.
Working across Campagni Auto Group, Carson City Toyota and Capital Ford, we lead brand strategy, design, advertising, social media and campaign development. Our focus: elevate an already-trusted local institution into a contemporary regional brand without losing an ounce of the authenticity that sets it apart.
Through our discovery work, three transformative opportunities emerged — unify the identity, modernize the brand system and build long-term recognition across every channel.

A Modern Identity That Honors a Northern Nevada Legacy
The Campagni family has built its reputation on trust, consistency and care — values strong enough to span generations. Our design process centered on those qualities, creating a brand system that connects all three dealerships under one visual language.
We modernized the dealership’s logo family, refined typography and color systems, then built a cohesive identity that works on everything from dealership signage and vehicle wraps to social feeds and apparel. The result is a contemporary, flexible brand that stays true to the Campagni story while positioning the group for the next decade of growth.
Campagni Cares: Turning Community Impact Into a Brand Story
Campagni Auto Group donates more than $100,000 each year to Northern Nevada organizations, but their impact goes far beyond writing checks. The Campagni team shows up and volunteers. Crucially, it invests in students, families, public safety and community health.
To capture that spirit, we helped the Campagni team grow Campagni Cares, a purpose-driven sub-brand that encompasses all the philanthropic initiatives the auto group undertakes. To build awareness around this, we created long-form storytelling and a documentary-style video. The video highlights how their support helps local schools reduce chronic absenteeism, assists the sheriff’s office with youth outreach and K-9 training, funds mental health programs through Carson Tahoe Health and strengthens day-to-day programs at the Boys & Girls Clubs.
Campagni Cares gives these stories a home and makes their community commitment visible, tangible and unforgettable.
“We Drive Northern Nevada” — A Brandline With Meaning
Every brand needs a line that carries its truth.
For Campagni Auto Group, that line is:
We Drive Northern Nevada.
It reflects their role not just as auto dealers, but as community partners. It shows Campagni as a driver of change for the better by helping local families, driving better school attendance and encouraging the community to move forward together.
The brandline appears across broadcast, digital, print and in-store materials, serving one purpose: to keep Northern Nevada moving forward, together.
Social Media with Strategy, Consistency, and Heart
We manage ongoing social media content across all three dealerships, producing branded photo and video assets that reflect each location’s individual personality while supporting a unified voice.
Our approach emphasizes:
Local relevance
Relationship-driven storytelling
Consistent brand presence
Clear, cohesive visual identity
Every post, reel and campaign reinforces trust and long-term recognition.
Reimagining Automotive Advertising Through Human Stories
Auto advertising is often loud and flashy. Campagni Auto Group chose a different path.
We built campaigns around real people, community moments and the values that define Northern Nevada. Each broadcast spot focuses on connections between families, teachers, kids, healthcare workers, first responders and the Campagni employees who serve them.
The result is advertising that is grounded, real and — most importantly —unmistakably Campagni.

Where Mustangs, Broncos and Community Run Wild
The annual Pony Show is one of Campagni Auto Group’s most beloved events: a gathering of Ford enthusiasts and local vendors that transforms Capital Ford into a community hub.
We supported creative direction, promotion and onsite coverage to grow the event year after year. What began as a simple car show has evolved into a celebration of regional pride and the culture that has always made Northern Nevada special.
