How it all started

Portrait of Georg Hertner, initiator of YOU ARE EPIC

“I would like to start with a story from my childhood to introduce you to the two central core elements that support this concept.
At that time I was 11-12 years old and went to secondary school in Pottschach in Southern Lower Austria. That day I did something I had never done before: I won the golden pin in the 3-way fight. I felt super good. My classmates gave me a pat on the back and I was proud and fulfilled to have done something so cool. It was a really great day...
When I was on my way home, an elderly lady with two heavy shopping bags turned onto the path in front of me. I thought about it for a moment and decided to help her carry her bags. At first she didn't really want to, but then agreed in good spirits. I brought her groceries to her front door, although that was quite a detour for me. But when I saw the gratitude in the lady's eyes, it overcame me. I felt indescribably good. I was happy to have helped this lady and it filled me with happiness and joy. I felt like Superman.

The reason why I remember this day so well was this beautiful moment. The feeling of having done something good.

The right time and the inner need to help play a central role in this story. Those are the two basic building blocks of this concept.”

Georg Hertner

Initiator

We build on that

Social need

Helping others is usually a very nice and fulfilling feeling. We could almost say it is a basic need and fills us with happiness.

Unfortunately, we still do it very rarely and hide behind excuses and personal convenience.

But what, if we could easily meet our social needs with what we like to do at home?

Epic Moment

Do you know that positive feeling when you've done something great, achieved something really big? The moment when you think: "YES - I am awesome!"

We call this moment an Epic Moment! And it is precisely this moment, when you are usually in a good mood and in a positive emotion, that we take advantage of.

Ads are annoying

Let's not kid ourselves: advertising is annoying!

In many cases, advertising works through penetration. Even more... even more... even more...

The consequence is, that we hide, scroll through or toggle advertising. And so the advertising loses and misses its actual effect.

We believe that advertising should create value and evoke positive emotions. Emotions that we want to use in this advertising format to make the world a little bit better.

What if

Almost USD 700 billion will be spent on advertising worldwide this year alone. For advertising that only uses a very small part of its actual advertising potential. Just imagine the following:

What, if you could divert advertising money to support charitable projects and thus increase the advertising value by a multiple?

Basically, this ad format does just that!

We solve a very specific need of advertisers and consumers, increase the advertising benefit and at the same time, we make the world a little bit better for everyone.

This is how we save the world

We reach people at the perfect moment, in a positive emotion, and enable them to satisfy their social need to "do something good". And they do exactly what they love to do: experiencing epic moments.

For the first time, consumers experience advertising that makes them happy and at the same time improves the world.

We help together — with what we love to do.

Make the world a better place with Epic Moments

We want to use Epic Moments to make the world even more beautiful and livable and thus help all those who need our help most urgently.

We want to create advertising formats which, in addition to being useful for consumers and advertisers, are also useful in the real world.

We want to start a movement and show and show that everyone can take their social responsibility without effort and without coercion.
