The coverwrap was intended to launch Skandia's fund hypermarket and acquire key contact details for its ongoing CRM strategy. The personalised coverwrap helped to boost take-up by 500 per cent and helped Skandia to achieve its twin goals of increased response levels and enhanced product and brand messaging.
UBS
Following UBS's sponsorship of the Swiss Challenger team for the 2002 America's Cup, Starcom Motive advised that sailing offered greater potential than advertising imagery. Starcom Motive secured an integrated deal with CNN International and the Inside Sailing package was born. This includes a monthly TV programme, a channel on cnn.com and exclusive sponsorship of key sailing events up to and including the 2003 America's Cup. A Continental Research survey revealed that, of those aware of Inside Sailing, 35 per cent identified UBS as the sponsor and the website has 100,000 unique users.
