Challenge & Objectives
Craft gin specialists Inspirited, create personalised blends using only the best quality ingredients, giving customers the freedom to design a completely unique spirit and bottle. But, despite having a quality product standing out in the highly competitive spirit market against many well-known brands was a challenge.
The Christmas gifting period was a key opportunity for Inspirited and they needed a media partner to help them achieve cut-through and raise awareness amongst their target audience of ABC1 adults.
Idea & Implementation
Inspirited needed the campaign to have impact, however budget meant they had to be smart with their advertising. Through profiling the Inspirited audience, ITV could identify the most efficient strategy to reach viewers who were most likely to buy their products. Taking advantage of ITV’s regionality, Inspirited could advertise specifically in the Yorkshire Emley area and as a new to TV brand also qualified for ITV’s Backing Business initiative, amplifying their campaign budget.
As a new to TV advertiser with no existing TV creative, Inspirited wanted to craft an advert that truly reflected their brand. Working in partnership with ITV’s in-house creative production team they developed a high-quality advert at cost price, which meant they could make their media budget go even further.
