Tribe was appointed to develop the 2011 campaign for the second consecutive year after

pitching for the work several months ago. Its appointment follows the success of the 2010

promotion, which won Gold for APMA’s Best Activity Generating Brand Loyalty and Silver for

APMA’s Best Brand Building campaign.

The new four-month campaign will give buyers the opportunity to redeem “Thread Creds” to Bid-to-Win limited edition retro t-shirts designed by   emerging artists, WBYK at the website.

This year, more than 500 t-shirts in seven unique designs will be available daily over the course of the nation-wide promotion all summer long.

Says John Georgas, Tribe’s head of promotions: “The campaign will leverage Schweppes’

unique heritage and continue the brand’s ownership of the positive emotional connection

with summer that was initiated last year. The campaign plays on some powerful summer insights to blend modern-retro design with the brand’s heritage, to differentiate Schweppes in the market and to reinforce summer fun where time is on your side.

The design of the campaign, to encourage bidding for a limited number of prizes, will

enable control of redemption and stimulate purchase, making the campaign scalable to the

brand’s ATL media activities.”

Laura Stephen-Daly, brand manager at Schweppes Australia adds: “We are excited to be

running this campaign for a second year and this time with a fun new twist that will drive

purchase frequency and active consumer engagement with our brands.”
