Doctors and nurses sign up for an incredible adventure: think about all the responsibility, the dangers, the science, the creativity that is part of the job. Unfortunately, they spend a good part of their time in hospitals wrestling with computers. Aventura makes software that gives them back the most precious thing they have–their time–so they can work with patients and get back to the adventure they signed up for.

Strategy

"I have watched Danny Altman create great marketing for 20 years. His current team at A Hundred Monkeys is one of the most creative groups I have ever worked with." Howard Diamond

This is a case of a technology company that got caught up in its own underwear. We had to strip the thing down to bare metal and have them explain things in excruciating detail before we could really understand it. Then we built the whole thing from scratch. There were no sacred cows in this project. They had a history, but no baggage. The only thing that mattered to the client was the story and the power.


We started with a question: What if technology could really help us? We did the strategy, wrote most of the copy, and partnered with a designer in Texas, an animator in Buenos Aires, and a web design firm in LA. This is as good as it gets.

"Working on a project with them tickles the brain and what they come up with always works in the market. Risky marketing that is no risk."

— Howard Diamond, CEO, Aventura

After living with these guys for a month, we came up with several rounds of names and finally settled on the one that best captured the spirit of the company, the size of the opportunity, and maybe most important, how doctors and nurses view their work.
