New York City, NY / The Procter & Gamble Company (PG) and Men’s Health (MH) Magazine partnered up to create a ‘Champion’ award-winning advertising and marketing campaign featuring P&G’s award-winning consumer men’s grooming products.

A champion in his own right, top celebrity photographer and commercial photographer Michael Grecco was commissioned to lead this creative joint advertising and marketing collaboration between Men’s Health (MH) Magazine and The Procter & Gamble Company (PG).

“I’ve worked with Michael Grecco for 22 years. I consistently go back to Michael because he has such an eye and such a talent that you really can’t put your finger on it,” said Jeff Griffith, Creative Director of Marketing and Advertising for Men’s Health Magazine.

Jason Van Oijen was selected as “The Champion” for the Men’s Health Magazine Winners Playbook. Van Oijen also happens to be a NY State Muay Thai Champion (Cruiserweight Division) and Professional Model.

The ‘Winners Playbook’ features three winners in their respective fields that share with readers what drives their success. Advice coming straight from professional men at the top of their game. The playbook is positioned as a must read for every guy who’s in it to win it.

“For modeling and boxing, I’m more confident when I’m lean, in shape and clean shaven. White teeth also give me confidence in life, on a shoot, wherever,” said Van Oijen when asked about how personal grooming boosts performance.

Van Oijen’s daily winning game plan includes Procter & Gamble’s (P&G) Gillette Fusion ProGlide shaver, Gillette Fusion Hydra Gel shaving cream, and Crest 3D White 2 Hour Express Whitestrips. These P&G grooming and personal hygiene products were named Best Razor, Best Shaving Cream for Men and Best Teeth Whitener respectively, by Men’s Health Magazine.

“With Jason we did three location shoots, each having their own set of challenges. One in a NY loft bathroom, another in a boxing gym, and finally an outdoor running track at dawn with an iconic NYC bridge in the background. We captured lots of great action shots,” said Grecco.
