Challenge
Launch byADL, an online retail platform selling only items stocked by Adelaide businesses, when monster competitors such as Amazon and eBay offer similar (and more expansive) services.
-
Strategy
Create attention-grabbing communication to intrigue customers and ultimately cause changes in consumer behaviour. To compete with established competitors and eventually persuade shoppers to consider a switch to byADL, it was imperative to first get their attention.
We also created a social media presence that extends beyond ‘get shop fit’; by using the brand tone instead of the launch campaign tone to inform the socials, we made accounts that will remain cohesive and consistent through various campaigns.

Creative Execution
A “ridiculously attention-grabbing” campaign inspiring Adelaideans to “get shop fit” by clicking and scrolling through the new online platform. With colourful ‘80s aerobics-inspired visuals and sound, the campaign invites people to work out their fingers and hands by exploring all byADL has to offer.

Results
The first month saw 30,000 visits to the byADL website, hundreds of thousands of social media impressions, and a Facebook engagement rate 122x the industry average.
While the launch is still in early stages, the campaign is already seeing promising results and the beginnings of ongoing success.
