If you’re a brand searching for the right message to engage consumers, sometimes coming straight to the point about what you offer, or what you don’t, is the best approach.
So it goes with Brother New Zealand with a new brand platform via Wave Agency, led by a simple tagline: ‘It just works’.
The campaign includes a TVC and a spread of “straight-talking” billboards across the country, ditching what can sometimes be exaggerated promises made by tech brands.
“It’s been a really lovely process working alongside Brother to get to this point,” said Craig Parker, creative director at Wave Agency. “We’ve found a positioning together that’s different, honest, and true to who Brother is.”
“It is a brave choice for a technology business to actively not list off functions and product benefits,” Parker added.
