THE OPPORTUNITY

WHAT WE DID

TELEVISION

C7EVEN worked with Conti Bros and Fin Design to produce a 15, 30 and 60 second TVC. The TVC was unlike any other for this category and included Hollywood style special effects. The TVC aired nationally on the Prime 7, NBN TV, Southern Cross and WIN TV networks over a 7-week period and achieved a potential audience reach of 1,700,00+.

 

RADIO

C7EVEN produced a 30 second radio advertisement that aired over a 3-week campaign period targeting 11 key sheep producing towns and achieving a potential audience reach of 203,000+.

 

PRINT

A national, state and regional print advertising campaign was deployed with advertisements placed in targeted publications over a 4-week period with a readership of almost 2.2M.

 

DIGITAL

A national digital advertising campaign was developed which included advertisements through social media and display advertising across key agricultural digital media platforms, plus Google search AdWords as part of a 8-week campaign.

PUBLIC RELATIONS

A national PR campaign was delivered and included:

  • ‘Platinum Ticket’ Giveaway – A ‘Willy Wonka’ inspired giveaway saw three (3) TRIDECTIN®
  • Platinum Tickets randomly placed inside 3 TRIDECTIN® 10L cartons.
