Best Pitch or Campaign? Please highlight your best pitch or campaign.
Regus campaign as it covers 30 countries in three continents , a challenge but one we can meet. Also we were in the final shoot-out against another well established international agency
If your agency was an animal, it would be a …?
Giraffe, as can reach places other agencies can’t reach (campaigns running in 50 countries) and also can see above the rest of the crowd plus we don’t eat humans.
Convince an alien just landed from outside the Asia-Pacific, who has only a basic understanding of PR, as to why your agency is better than its rivals?
We understand many languages and cultures so should be able to understand Alien needs and translate them to AsiaPac market, He or she (or maybe be neither) has come a long way and we can help them go a bit further!
