Mindshare Melbourne named winner of News Corp Australia’s ‘Win a Trip to Cannes’ promotion
News Corp Australia, the Official Representative of the Cannes Festival of Creativity in Australia, has today announced Mindshare Melbourne as the winner of its “Win a Trip to Cannes” promotion.
The competition which supported the launch of News Corp’s new print and tablet app advertising bundle AccessOne, was open to media agencies and their clients who booked eligible advertising during the campaign period. AccessOne automatically lifts advertising in News Corp’s print edition over to their new masthead tablet editions at no addition charge.
The prize, valued at over $19,000, includes flights, accommodation and delegate passes for two to the 2015 Cannes International Festival of Creativity happening on the 21-27 June 2015.
Says Fiorella Di Santo, group director of sales, News Corp Australia: “The AccessOne product gives advertisers the opportunity to be more creative via the enhancements that the tablet editions can offer so it feels like a natural fit for the winners of this competition to be headed to the most creative festival in the world. Congratulations to Mindshare.
“It’s encouraging to see agencies like Mindshare recognise the potential of AccessOne. Increasingly, our customers and clients are taking advantage of the opportunity to reach our audience across platforms throughout the day. We’re also encouraged by the interest in AccessOne’s ability to run digitally optimised creative, including innovative ad concepts that click through to advertiser sites, offer video, interactive catalogue content and in-app product purchasing.”
