Through groundbreaking campaigns, Johnson has driven explosive growth in every company he works for. Some of Johnson’s hit campaigns include PowerBeats with LeBron James, the #ShowYourColor Solo Campaign, and the Beats Pill marketing campaigns starring Chris Rock and Eminem.

    Ambush marketing is a practice in which free product is used to beat the competition at events that already have premier sponsors. For example, Omar was part of the team that got free Beats headphones into the hands of celebrities and influencers to build brand awareness through each personalities’ respective audiences. This helped turn Beats into the headphones of choice in the last decade. In the UK, France, Germany, North America, Singapore and South Korea, Beats became the #1 selling premium headphone brand.

Johnson has also helped manage successful campaigns for companies such as Nike, Coca-Cola, Kraft Foods, and Campbell Soup. While working with Nike, Omar developed the Nike+ sports music platform. This was Nike’s first revenue-generating relationship with record labels.
