  • Digital media budget? Let’s include YouTube marketing!

    If you’re working on your marketing budget for 2011/12 and trying to decide the value of including more digital media, in particular, YouTube productions and channels to that budget – new figures just released from the video giant in celebration of its 6th birthday may be of interest. YouTube announced that users from across the…

  • Slash your advertising spend with Facebook ads and DSPs

    When it comes to media planning and buying we all want to reach our target market with little or no wastage. Media is expensive – it often outweighs creative by 5 to 1 – and must be measured in terms of ROI (Return On Investment). While we’re seeing more accountability with MOVE (Measurement of Outdoor Visibility…

  • Come Together Brisbane TVC campaign

    I really love the new Brisbane City Council’s “Come Together Brisbane” TV Advertising campaign. It’s fun, energetic and fresh and sends the message that its business as usual in Brisbane and this is the place to see and to have fun. I also love the Hungry Kids of Hungary and Ball Park Music’s rendition of…

  • Scoda and Toyota’s cars of glass

    After seeing these two beautiful ads in similar spots on prime time TV I thought they must be part of a campaign series.

  • The slow movement in advertising: Enjoy the Ride

    I’m loving the therapeutic nature of Perth Advertising Agency: 303 Group’s Road Safety Campaign which launched on 18 March 2011. They kicked off the three year Road Safety in Western Australia campaign with a three minute TV advertisement which suggests we slow down in life. Your actions in life reflect your actions in the car……

  • Do you know your target market?

    The Neo Property Marketing Team possibly knew they were targeting bachelors when they conceptualised this advertising campaign for the sale of the property at 15 Queen Anne Court on the Gold Coast. Some might even say it’s spot on for the Gold Coast demographic. [briotube]http://www.youtube.com/v/q9LBQZ3nxCU[/briotube] This advert is just shy of 500,000 hits on youtube…

  • Animation in television advertising

    If you’re like me, you’re probably so accustomed to television advertising that you very rarely actually stop to watch how the commercial was made.
