The implementation |
|
|
While our publications: The Express & Echo (daily paper); Devon Today (monthly glossy magazine); Mid Devon Gazette series (weekly paper) and Exeter Times (free weekly) and website www.thisisexter.co.uk have a broad reader appeal across a wide range of subjects, we know that one of our strengths is that we are able to create a platform to attract people with specific interests or to a specific event. We set-out to create the ultimate multi-media bank of show information. Naturally behind this was an urge to drive a greater number of users to both our online and print media, increasing the frequency of visits from our existing online user base and creating a new and increasingly effective advertising platform both online and in print. The County Show organisers were only too pleased to come on-board and sponsor the package. Making it a commercial success from the very start. We produced a special supplement which went inside the Express & Echo and was also sold at the showground. We also produced regular stories in all our publications and set-up a micro-site: www.thisisexter.co.uk/countyshow with a direct link to the County Show website. Using a database of numbers collected during last year’s show we also sent text messages letting our readers know there were show ticket offers in our publications. |

Project results |
|
|
Although commercially funded the campaign was editorially driven in a format that was reader friendly and gave added value — and it was a great success. Not only did we get the campaign sponsored but we were able to target new advertisers as the spaces were sold as part of a multi-media package and created almost £10,000 of new business. We managed not only to successfully intensify our relationship with our readers, but also our advertisers. |
