Solution:

  • Data-Driven Audience Targeting: Leveraged Nine’s 9Tribes segmentation and Azira’s consumer behavior data to target high-value customers, especially affluent and luxury-oriented audiences.

  • Multi-Platform Approach: Used Nine’s media network to maximize reach and relevance.

  • Compelling Ad Creatives: Designed product-focused ads that highlighted the summer sale and showcased the retailer’s premium quality to maintain brand prestige.

Situation:

A premium Australian furniture retailer aimed to enhance its market presence through a summer sale ad campaign. The goals were to hit sales targets, promote a significant 50% discount on selected products, clear out stock to make way for the 2024 collection, and boost showroom footfall across its 16 locations. The campaign was designed to drive both immediate sales and long-term brand engagement, ensuring a successful transition into the new product line.

Challenge:

Maintaining the furniture retailer’s premium brand perception while effectively promoting the summer sale was a significant challenge. This required attracting a high-value audience during a time when discretionary spending is low. Ensuring that the ads reached the right audience and the messaging resonated with that audience was crucial to drive both awareness and footfall to the showrooms.

Solution:

Nine Entertainment, an Australian media and publishing company, partnered with Azira, a global consumer insights platform, to create a data-driven campaign for the retailer. The campaign targeted key furniture spenders and affluent readers across Nine’s various platforms, including The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age, nine.com.au, and 9Honey.
