Amica Celebrates Jayson Tatum’s Road to Recovery With New Ad Campaign, ‘Back to Zero’

The multifaceted campaign – which will include out-of-home placements throughout the Greater Boston area and social media promotions – traces Tatum’s recovery from his injury last May. It aims to rally basketball fans across the country to show their support for his comeback, and is both a nod to Tatum’s iconic jersey number and Amica’s always-on commitment to helping its customers come back after a loss.

“For me, getting back to zero was about trusting the process and leaning on the people who supported me every step of the way,” said Tatum, an Amica brand partner. “I’m grateful to Amica for standing with me through the recovery, and for celebrating what it means to make a comeback.”

“Jayson’s recovery is about more than basketball. It’s about the individual perseverance and support that go into bouncing back from any setback life throws at us,” said Amica President and CEO Ted Shallcross. “That mindset aligns closely with how Amica shows up for our customers every day. We’re proud to stand alongside Jayson and invite fans everywhere to be part of his return.”

The campaign features a hero video that combines moments from his recovery – including with his mom Brandy Cole and trainer Nick Sang – with a countdown to his return. The spot launched yesterday on NBC during the Celtics-Lakers game.

Amica is pairing its advertising plans with large-scale fan activations through social media designed to rally not just Celtics fans but sports fans across the country. The Back to Zero activation invites fans to show their support by sharing creative displays of the number “0” on social media and in their communities.
