OUTPUT

Our multi-channel approach saw us develop a big creative idea – our starting point for every campaign – which was rolled out and tested across display, paid social, native, YouTube and Sky AdSmart.

The creative featured our different audiences getting on with work, while showing how their finances can get out of control if ignored. Using the headline ‘Don’t let the numbers get on top of you’ the creative repeated the use of the SJD brand name to build awareness and recall.

Through a mix of digital performance media working alongside PPC, we were able to test, refine and implement the activity day-by-day across the 8-week campaign.
