KNGF Guidedogs and sponsor SpecSavers created a special pair of sunglasses. They “hid” this trendy model in the racks with normal glasses. When somebody try’s one of the models, they’ll be in for a big suprise. The glasses are completely dark, so you can’t see anything. An experience that makes you feel how it is to be visually handicaped. The “pricetag” explains SpecSavers’ sponsorship of KNGF Guidedogs. This gives everybody the chance to be a sponsor too. This promo will run in all 80 SpecSaver stores in the country.

During Miami Fashion Week, Nivea was in South Beach once again to promote its GOOD-BYE CELLULITE product. To celebrate swimwear designer Shay Todd’s new collection, Nivea fashioned exclusive GOOD-BYE CELLULITE sofas for the event.

You could call it a product demonstration carried out when our target thinks about cellulite the most. Never one to take a backseat even to bikini models, the Nivea sofas were bona fide conversation pieces during the soiree.

“Only use electricity when you need it.”

This outdoor idea not only embraces the media at its disposal but also gives consumers a realistic world of advice to help tackle the current energy crisis in South Africa. The execution ensures that the consumer interacts with the message when a light is triggered by a sensor as they approach the bus stop - illuminating the shelter as well as the message, which reads: “Only use electricity when you need it”. This bus shelter is a strong reminder of how simple it is to save energy, by switching off a light when it’s not a use. And, so one of the world’s largest energy saving light bulb manufacturers, it shows that Osram is committed to educating consumers on just how easy it is to use energy.

In Australia, Stella Artois was the #1 international draught beer. But the brand had a long way to go before it caught up with local brews such as Crown Lager or Victoria Bitter. So Foster’s created a new sales team to concentrate on selling Stella Artois. Although this team was aware of Stella Artois’ origins, it didn’t have a good understanding of the brand’s character or its association with film. Their job was to produce a sales presenter that would get the team excited about Stella Artois, and make it easier to sell the beer to pub and bar managers. Foster’s was expecting a brochure, or a folder with loose-leaf pages. They gave them 50 customised Sony PlayStation PSPs instead. The PSPs were delivered in hand-stitched black velvet drawstring bags. The machines were rebranded with a Stella Artois logo on the reverse of the case, and they also modified the operating systems and icon sets to reflect the brand. Then they installed the Stella Artois films and artwork, plus short presentations on the history of the brand. And because PSPs are wi-fi capable, Foster’s can load up new material quicker than new pages can be printed for a loose-leaf folder. Foster’s analysis has shown that every sales representative who was given a PSP met all their sales targets for the relevant quarter. Anecdotal feedback also confirmed that without exception, the PSP was regarded as the best sales presenter ever received. As a result, Foster’s is now reviewing further rollout of the tool.

A sand glass 12 meter high and 8 meter wide. Big enough to hide a car in it and that’s exactly what BMW did for the countdown of the launch of the new BMW 7 series. The sand glass is filled with silver balls which pass through and uncover the new BMW.
