Auckland - The latest
iteration of the award winning ASB ‘Like Loan’ created by Saatchi & Saatchi
New Zealand launches today, debuting a NZ first, an integrated media
campaign fusing social media and live TV commercials.
Every Monday for three weeks starting
today, Facebook users have the opportunity to win a special home loan rate
determined by how many people ‘like’ the rate through a dedicated Facebook app
between 6pm and 10pm.
In a ground-breaking move, the real-time
decreasing rate on Facebook will be integrated live into TV adverts on TVNZ
channels TV One and TV2 throughout the evening – no other brand in New Zealand
has used this innovation before.
Experiential, social media, banners and
radio streams will also work together to promote the live, dropping rate.
If a user enters the prize draw, and
provided they meet ASB’s home lending criteria, they will go in the draw to win
a special fixed term home loan rate determined that day based on the number of
‘likes’ accumulated. The lowest rate in 2013 was 1.1504%.
“ASB is excited to be offering Like Loan
again and this time, pushing the boundaries even further with a new innovation
to play to the growing consumer trend of cross-platform consumption,” says Anna
Curzon, ASB’s General Manager of Marketing. “Research* shows that
more than 90 percent of people move spontaneously between devices and screens,
which is why we are fusing the live, dropping rate on the Like Loan app with
television adverts.”
“It’s a fantastic opportunity for three
lucky home owners to win a great value fixed interest rate and who knows how
low it will go?”
The
ASB Like Loan campaign had its origins in Facebook, spanned the wider media
ecosystem and was made more famous and impactful by TV – sourcing a crowd and
capitalising on the seamless movement from TV to online to drive scale and
prospective new customers. The ASB Like Loan campaign delivered ASB thousands of NZ’ers who had
an interest in Home Loans, a large proportion of which were non-ASB Bank
customers.
The 2013 campaign was recently awarded Gold
in the financial services category at the New Zealand Direct Marketing Awards
and was awarded one Gold and two Silvers at the AXIS Awards.
