TEQUILA WINS GRAND PRIX AT DIRECT AND INTERACTIVE MARKETING AWARDS

A campaign to motivate runners in the long-term for client Adidas has won TEQUILA\ the top New Zealand Post RSVP Grand Prix Award at the New Zealand Direct and Interactive Marketing Awards, held Friday night.
The Supreme NEXUS, proudly sponsored by Oracle, went to AIM Proximity & Proximity iD for their client Lexus Proximity iD, for the outstanding lead generation campaign leading to the most successful launch for Lexus. This successfully generated both sales and conversion of prospects.
The newly introduced New Zealand Post Postmark Award, awarded for the best use of mail as a medium within any campaign was awarded to Wunderman New Zealand for their client’s Mainland Product’s Kiwi Heritage Bacon. With clever segmentation this campaign grew the customer base of the brand and increased sales by 600%.
The NZ Direct and Interactive Marketing Awards, organised by the Marketing Association, comprise two series of awards: the New Zealand Post RSVP Awards, for the best examples of direct marketing campaigns judged on strategy, creative, and results; and the NEXUS Awards proudly sponsored by Oracle, for the best products, services and processes that drive campaigns.
