Officeworks delivers EOFYthing in new end of financial year campaign via AJF GrowthOps
Officeworks is this year reminding people that EOFYthing they’ve bought for work could be a tax deduction, in an extension of the ‘EOFYthing’ end of financial year campaign AJF GrowthOps first created for Officeworks in 2018.
This years’ campaign message is more pertinent than ever with people forced to work remotely, due to the pandemic, and consumers having potentially bought many more claimable items in the past few months than in normal circumstances.
Says Jess Richmond, general manager marketing, Officeworks: “The EOFYthing theme has resonated well in previous years, and is now more relevant than ever with so many Australians working from home and looking to save wherever they can.”
Says Andrew Foote, executive creative director, AJF GrowthOps: “We have a simple message to get out, which can financially benefit businesses and individuals. That’s worth shouting from the balcony.”
The concept underwent a late adjustment to reflect this unique period of social distancing, working from home and the increased use of online shopping.
Running throughout June across Australia, the campaign will feature on TV, OLV, social, digital display, OOH, radio, press and in-store.
AJF GrowthOps won silver and bronze in the 2019 Australian Effie awards, and another silver and bronze in the 2019 APAC Effie awards for their EOFYthing campaign for Officeworks.

Isn’t ‘eofy’ something that Foxtel invented for their advertising? Seems like it’s just been wholesale nicked.
Fuck off.
That you’re the pre-eminent agency in a listed though troubled marketing services group.
And that Officeworks are your best client with a big Covid/ year end/tax deduction/huge sell opportunity.
And that this is what you serve up to them.
Maybe you too would stay home, stay socially isolated and not go to work.
This is some of my best work yet guys, no push backs at all from the agency.
You know that feeling when you grab a pack of Salt & Vinegar chips at the store, but you get home and realize you actually grabbed plain chips, but you’re too lazy to return it so you just suffer through it and finish the bag? That’s what watching this ad is like.
