Queens and Nans continue AAMI’s ‘Not Very Insurancey’ campaign via Ogilvy, Melbourne
A family stranded in Ship Creek, over-enthusiastic nans in gold leggings, and broken heels in Broken Hill. AAMI has extended its memorable ‘Not Very Insurancey’ brand platform with a series of new content via Ogilvy, Melbourne.
The latest campaign features AAMI’s Motor Roadside Assist, Home Complete Replacement Cover, and the AAMI SmartPlates App, delivering a service-first message with a combination of traditional storytelling and trademark humour.
Says Michelle Martinis, executive brand and marketing manager, AAMI: “Whether it be service, products or innovative apps in a highly competitive category, our standard of cover, service and innovation is squarely focused on delivering to customer needs, and 
strives to be market-leading. And that, we believe, is what makes us different. In fact, insurance delivered in a ‘Not Very Insurancey’ way is core to AAMI’s communications and brand platform, with memorable and engaging stories, full of character and colour, 
for all Australians to identify with and enjoy.
“Our latest round of creative developed in partnership with Ogilvy Melbourne delivers more loveable characters and more ‘Danke Schoen’, with our famous ‘AAMI girls’, coming out to the 
rescue and heading out into the world to help customers in need.”
Says David Ponce de Leon, ECD, Ogilvy Melbourne: “This continues to prove why AAMI is not your average insurance company. This is classic AAMI storytelling, human truths and light-hearted humour. Throw a bit of Wayne Newton, a quirky nan, some feathers and glitter, and a couple of fun loving characters into the mix and you’re bound to end somewhere really special.”
The new AAMI spots are on air nationally, with more surprises to come.

Those are actually kinda watchable.
Sorry, wanted to like these but they’re kinda shitty and average given the potential of the scripts.
Oh dear.
Ogilvy do an App. Pounce tells everyone they’ve transformed and they are now a new-age digital hot shop. The future is bright. Watch us go.
Then they produce this.
Same old, same old.
Great work guys. Love em!
Is aami doing health insurance for mentally ill people?
“Wigunda broken heel” like chalk on a blackboard. Makes me dive for the mute button.
