I delivered this case study to NYU SCPS graduate students as a guest lecturer in Jay Gronlund's Positioning and Brand Development course. It details a successful integrated PR, marketing and social media campaign we ran at Affect for our client, Regus, whose success was the beginning of a great agency relationship.

target audiences.

15. REGUS CASE STUDY
TARGET AUDIENCE RESEARCH
“Yes, I have heard about Regus. “
“My three main concerns when
choosing an office are affordability,
light and noise.”
“I know very lile about Regus, but
yes, I'd consider it because I presume
William Scheckel Regus’ shared office space is flexible
Marketing Consultant and affordable and things like tables,
chairs, printers and such are there
already. That's less for me to think
about.”
Affect Strategies Presented to NYU | April 13, 2010
16. REGUS CASE STUDY
CAMPAIGN POSITIONING
We tapped into the elements of Regus’ brand essence that made
sense for New York City-based prospects.
Entrepreneurs “Make it easy”
Young (25 – 45) “Make it fast”
1 -5 employees, but growing “Put my best foot forward”
Fast business trajectory “Sick of working from home”
Heavy networkers “Look the part”
Sense of community “Goa be affordable”
(business & NYC) “Just give me the facts”
Tech-skewed “Do anything for my business”
