Voice, Personalisation and Real human insights drive effective marketing: Lessons from WARC Awards 2019
Share Share ShareShare

WARC has released the Effective Innovation Report 2019, highlighting key themes from some of the world’s most original marketing thinking.

Drawn from the winners of the Effective Innovation category of this year’s international WARC Awards, the report includes opinions from judges, and showcases ideas that have transformed a business or disrupted category conventions and delivered results.

WARC’s Effective Innovation Report highlights three key trends within marketing innovation that provide valuable lessons to the advertising industry:

Effective innovators need real human insights

Human and cultural insights can power innovation.Jury member Jem Fawcus, Group CEO and Owner, Firefish, comments: “A brand has to add value to lives by understanding the culture that people value and incorporating it not just in communications, but in the product itself.”

Fawcus cites examples like SOK Media’s ‘Block Wish’ for Alepa, a Finnish convenience store that asked its customers what they wanted to see stocked on the shelves; and ‘My Line’ by MullenLowe SSP3 for Colombian Ministry of ICT, a simple but effective campaign that successfully provided 99.3% of Colombians with internet access via feature phones.

Personalisation can transform innovative communications

Personalisation continues to obsess brands and combining it with innovation has led to great results.

Stand out campaigns include ‘The Woman Behind the Veil’ by FP7 McCann Riyadh for Al Rajhi Bank in Saudi Arabia, which circumnavigated advertising regulation and won favour with women by using mirrors in outdoor sites.

Hannah Mirza, Media Programme Lead, Diageo, and member of the jury, comments: “Data and technology have empowered the potential of marketers all over the world. Thecreative interpretation of how toimplement personalisation is whatis differentiating the innovatorsin its application.

“Brands that arethinking beyond the screen andinto consumer utility throughpersonalisation are having thebreakthrough moments. This leadsto growth and brand salience asnot only fit for purpose but usefulto consumers’ lives.”

Voice is becoming more integrated

Voice,and other manifestations of AI, is gradually becoming more integrated as brands use them more cleverly to increase brand recognition and capture attention.

Jury member Federica Bowman, Managing Director, Digital, Firm Decisions, says: “With AI at the heart of business transformation, the impact on the cost of products and services, as well as the return on marketing investment to drive sales, is a potential game-changer.”

Juha Halmesvaara, Media Innovations Director, Carat Finland, added: “Voice commerce will be worth over $40bn by 2022, and it is where the strongest and most top-of-mind brands will win big.”

The judges were particularly struck by Australian pay TV brand Foxtel for which Mindshare created the truly game-changing campaign ‘Monty’ to encourage people to pay for a product they’d previously enjoyed for free; and DDB Group New Zealand’s ‘Re:scam’ for Netsafe New Zealandwhich used chatbots to divert scammers away from actual people, helping to curb cybercrime.

WARC’s Lucy Aitken, Managing Editor, Case Studies, comments: “Following our analysis of the winning entries, we see that there’s a shift away from marketing via algorithm towards real human insights that can power effective communications, as well as desirable products and services for consumers that offer genuine convenience and solve problems.”

WARC Awards 2020 will open in November 2019.
