TE LL M E A STO RY | CONTINUED ... ADVERTISER Taubmans Endure PRODUCT House & Garden MEDIA Digital AGENCY Jam&Co Design COUNTRY Australia YEAR 2013 At Adshel, we are no strangers to highprofile, interactive and story-led campaigns; in fact, we have been at it for some time. Take Taubmans who came to us looking for help to inject some inspiration into home decoration projects. We determined that inspiration can strike literally anywhere and so we set about creating interactive touch-painting panels for Taubmans’ Endure range. The unique digital panels allowed the public to embrace their inner muse, playing with colour schemes and techniques in real time, and on the go. More than just a digital paintbox, panels were positioned close to Bunnings Warehouse hardware stores leading to a high rate of conversion to purchase. And once our budding decorators had settled on a colour scheme, there was a QR code ready to send the final palettes directly to their smartphones. And the campaign worked, attracting some 1,500 unique users, across six digital screens in Melbourne and Sydney. So, despite the excitement undoubtedly generated by the method of delivery, the core / 120 proposition remained simple: we allowed potential customers to become part of the Taubmans’ brand story, rather than simply remaining interested observers. This success story points the way to connecting with a commuter base who are more than ready to engage with advertising that allows personality and individuality to shine through strong and focussed storytelling.
