Hungry to change consumers' perception, Kmart teamed with HDC to create the Kmart Design website, a unique behind-the-scenes look at the inspiration behind the designs and the people who make them. HDC developed a fully integrated web strategy utilizing search engine optimization, analytics, pay-per-click and online advertising, social media and more to get the word out.
