Air New Zealand wanted a best of breed careers website to suit their best of breed brand.

A strategic approach

A strategic approach defined this project.

Workshops, analytics and market case studies gave insights about the goals of the business and the needs of the audiences. Content was developed to showcase the unique brand of Air New Zealand, but also to inform about the business units that make up the company. Content drove design, with large hero imagery, video, and flexible content blocks being created to enable rich story telling.

Integration with the ATS resulted in a modern card layout for job results, and seamless user journey from content to application.

‘We set out to create a best of breed solution for a best of breed business.’

Head of Digital, Adcorp

Deloitte approached Adcorp to improve the user journey for candidates on their careers website. They wanted to increase functionality and tell their story to engage candidates more effectively.

A collaborative approach

Adcorp worked closely with the Deloitte People and Performance team and engaged Deloitte’s Creative Director at the start of the project to ensure compliance with the Global Brand guidelines and encourage key stakeholder involvement in the project.

Adcorp designed and developed a new site with a modern and clean style. With strong mobile features, it clearly articulated the Deloitte New Zealand story. The website featured Deloitte people and tells real stories from within the business, while showcasing Deloitte’s strong brand.

‘Adcorp listened carefully to what we wanted to achieve and brought our ideas to life, whilst always keeping Global Brand requirements in mind. Throughout our recent Graduate Recruitment campaign we received many comments that our website gave a fantastic user experience and is unique in the market/makes our brand stand out from other employers. We’ve also had other member firms in our global network comment on its ease functionality and how good it looks.’

Vegeta required a winter campaign to continue the engagement strategy that had been developed across previous campaigns. The brief was to be creative, to excite.

A creative approach

Adcorp developed a concept based on the Cluedo board game, called Catch a Thief.

Paid media directed people to a campaign website where they watched a video of a dinner  party. They were introduced to characters as they interacted. At the end of the party, the lights went out and someone stole the Vegeta.

People were then tasked with selecting who the thief was, which Vegeta product was stolen,  and the tool used to make the robbery. Choosing the right combination put the person into a draw.

Significant social activity supported the campaign with backstories of the characters and  other campaign content.

Catch a Thief Video

Adcorp created a series of videos that introduced the characters at a dinner party. Follow up videos were also created revealing the thief.

Results

The campaign won awards in 2017:

  • 2017 – W3 Awards (Silver) for Website – Microsite and Website – User Experience

Impressions

Deloitte New Zealand wanted to creatively showcase the unique career journeys they offer. The objective was to inspire talented graduates to start their career with Deloitte.

A creative approach

Adcorp developed the idea of an interactive career pathway, where candidates could experience a graduates journey working at Deloitte, in the form of a timeline.  

The concept was approved and Adcorp designed and developed the solution, which was to sit on the new careers website.

Results

The effective use of content, video and photography resulted in a dynamic and interactive career journey that really set Deloitte apart from their competitors and showcased the career opportunities on offer at Deloitte.

Adcorp was appointed to deliver the creative and marketing strategies for Finbar’s development in West Leederville.

A strategic approach

The objective of the campaign was to develop a brand that connected with the First Home Buyer, Owner Occupier and Investor target market. Besides the name, logo and brand development, Adcorp was also required to create marketing elements to promote Motive’s key selling points with the use of emotive copy, headlines and photos.

Adcorp delivered campaigns across the pre-launch, launch, maintenance and completed stages of the development.

Unison apartments, as the name suggests, was a dual-phased development launch by the property group Finbar.

A strategic approach

Located in Maylands, the development consisted of two buildings with separate launch dates – The first being Unison on Tenth and the second Unison on Kennedy. The creative was strategically developed to run synonymously between the two stages.

The brand targeted young first home buyers with the use of bright colours, trendy hipster inspired imagery and typography. The integrated campaign consisted of print collateral, press, outdoor, direct mail, online and television.

Adcorp developed a portfolio campaign that made it possible for the Industrial team at Colliers to advertise and showcase Industrial stock for sale or lease on behalf of their clients.

A multi media approach

The key objective for this portfolio was to position the campaign microsite as the #1 source of Industrial property information and listings with the purpose of generating qualified leads and enquiries. Adcorp produced a microsite, digital display banners, paid media marketing, print advertising, video and email communication.

Tauranga City Council were looking to educate young adults on how to have a safe but fun night on New Year’s Eve and to communicate what’s happening across the city to a defined audience.

A partnered approach

Adcorp analysed the required demographics and target audience groups. Running four localised communication plans across the city, it was important that the audience did not see overlapping material.  

In partnership with the council, Adcorp developed a media strategy for each event and message. A media plan was produced containing four individual timelines. Adcorp then created detailed messaging, placed and managed the advertisements across social and other media outlets.

Colliers International required a creative Information Memorandum for the sale of 658 Church Street - significant property in the Richmond business hub. The objective was to stimulate interest, encourage enquiries and ultimately, a successful sale of the property.

A creative approach

Adcorp’s creative solution was a highly visual; image heavy Information Memorandum using iconography and photography throughout to highlight key selling points. The look and feel was contemporary and fashionable.

The high-level creative was then taken to market in a campaign which included print advertising, online listings and an EDM.

Adcorp also professionally translated the IM for offshore markets.

‘The marketing campaign was undertaken in a most professional and harmonious association which resulted in the presentation of multiple offers and ultimately a record breaking result.’

Director, Property Bank Australia

Property developer Finbar, engaged Adcorp to manage the launch of Subi Strand apartments located in the heart of Subiaco, Perth. The objective was to create awareness, drive traffic to the website, generate enquiries and ultimately convert sales of 245 apartments.

A strategic approach

Adcorp created a name and brand identity to reflect the mixed-use nature and artistic characteristics of the development’s location. Incorporating emotive taglines and fresh, modern brand elements, the campaign came alive to engage and attract the target demographic.

Adcorp delivered: demographic and geographic research, name, logo, brand extensions, marketing campaign strategy, media planning and buying, brochures and marketing collateral, digital design, tv, video production, outdoor advertising, sales office design and on-site signage.
