Commonwealth Bank champions small business in latest campaign via M&C Saatchi, Sydney
M&C Saatchi, Sydney has launched Commonwealth Bank’s latest Business Banking campaign, ‘For however you do business’.
Based on the insight that the motivation to go into business is often driven by a desire to do things differently, in your own unique way and on your terms, the spot represents six businesses that march to the beat of their own drum, capturing the energy and spirit of Australia at work.
The campaign speaks specifically to small-to-medium businesses in Australian regional and metro areas and it will roll out across TV, out-of-home, radio, social and digital channels.
Says Tim Green, Creative Director at M&C Saatchi, Sydney: “This campaign celebrates what it is to be in Australian business today and CommBank embraces the fact that no two business owners work to the same rhythm.”

Well at the very least, I enjoyed the drumming instead of a manifesto.

Nice work Tim and Luke. Kept me watching and was a refreshing change from the tired
‘aspirational’ dross that banks normally churn out for this sort of brief
This is so shit, such an uninspiring wannabe stunt piece that totally misses every mark. Doesn’t matter how much glue and glitter you beat into this shit, its terrible.
Feels like they came up with the very uninspired ‘keep your beat’ line first then worked backwards to dovetail in the drummer. Genius.
this came first.

I’m absolutely amazed that these talented people produced this terrible ad.
m&c definitely working to budweiser’s rhythm
They got rid of Dilallo then Canning for this?
I’d be pissed.
Where is Canning?
What is that even about. Terrible.
This is the sort of work that makes the ad industry look completely irrelevant. Well done.
Absolutely terrible
Shit Drumming…like shit shit.
