This ‘battle of the tweets’ football campaign pitted Real Madrid and Barcelona fans against each other to promote Spanish mobile network Movistar. The firm worked with MediaMind to engage with the target audiences, achieving dwell rates 3 times higher than the national average. The campaign invited fans of Real Madrid or Barcelona to tweet for their team and demonstrate support via banners on ElMundo.es.

Using interactive rich media advertising on ElMundo.es, Movistar got readers to demonstrate their passion for soccer, with real time tweets appearing in the ad. More than 300,000 users viewed the campaign. The campaign used the homepage of ElMundo.es as a huge screen based on a new masthead format of 990x250 . The average Dwell time of users interacting with the campaign was 53 seconds and average dwell rate 17.27% nearly 3 times the Spanish benchmark of 6%.

“The most striking thing is that the rate of impressions with dwell time was almost three times the average for the Spanish telecommunications sector, confirming this new format of ElMundo.es as great brand placement” – Cesar Alonso, Head of Online Advertising at Movistar

Case Study: Promoting sport to haemophiliacs | Agency: Oi Media and Langland | Country: UK | Sector: Pharma | Objectives: Brand awareness | Format: Games, user generated content, forums

cs_lacta.jpgAbout 6,000 people are affected with haemophilia in the UK. A preventative treatment (known as prophylaxis) allows those affected to lead virtually normal lives, with sport and exercise playing a vital role lessening the risk of bleeds. Bayer HealthCare hired Oi Media and Langland to create FactorFitness, a website giving haemophiliacs tips on how to get the most out of sport, while educating others on special requirements needed, such as the dedicated ‘Teachers Zone’. By far the most popular area of the site, the ‘Ask and expert’ feature lets people submit questions to resident physio and occupational therapists- providing a valuable resource. The site has a number of interactive features such as games and user generated photo galleries, while patients on Bayer get access to a special members area.

Case study: Adidas Impossible Is Nothing | Agency: Netthink ES | Technology: MediaMind | Sector: Retail | Objectives: Engagement, brand positioning | Format: Rich media & microsite

Case study: Adidas Impossible Is NothinThere’s an interesting technique for engagement here. The square advert on the right hand side opens up and gives the viewer a pen. A brand character then runs along the line that’s automatically drawn. It’s an engaging way of drawing the viewer in and delivering a clear payback. The ‘Impossible is nothing’ message resonates and has more compulsion given that the viewer is bound to be sitting at a PC screen.
