It’s a slam-dunk! Digital set to kick
ahead of traditional advertising
Digital is the way forward
The traditional way to promote a brand or product has been via advertising
on all manner of platforms including radio and television, newspaper and
magazine, brochures and catalogues or point of sale and packaging. We’ve all
seen it, all our lives.
Whilst all of those tactics are still valuable in their own right, they are fast
being overtaken by the power of online video.
A recent study by Adap.tv, a global online video advertising service provider,
said more than 90% of agencies have reported some type of increased ad
spend in video. On top of that, in 2013 brands have spent on average a
massive 65% more on video advertising than they did in 2012.
Reports like this make it even more apparent, for those brands that get it
right, that there is no better cost effective, powerful tool than the use of
shareable online video to tell a brand or product story.
The celebrity ambassador
And, if you can include a celebrity or athlete ambassador in the
story telling process, then even better.
Turkish Airlines did an awesome job last year when they used allworld footballer Lionel Messi and LA Lakers basketball legend
Kobe Bryant in a video that pitted the two megastars in a battle
for the attention of a young boy on board a flight.
It’s tagline was The best fly with Europe’s best airline and it’s
hashtag was #kobevmessi.
The content of the video was great and it has now been viewed
by well over one million people on YouTube and no doubt
countless others on other platforms. Put simply Turkish Airline
kicked the biggest of all goals.
#kobevmessi2
That’s perhaps until now and the second instalment of
#kobevmessi that was released last week and has already
been seen almost 70 million times.
The new video shows the pair travelling the world taking
‘selfies’ from exotic locations around the world that, of
course, the airline flies to.
Watch as one of the protagonists visit Red Square, the Great
Wall of China, the Maldives, Bangkok and Mount Kilimanjaro.
In the video’s final scene, Messi takes a selfie in Sultanahmet
Square in Istanbul, only to be photobombed by Kobe.
The benchmark
Not only is this another great piece of content with
a good, clear storyline, the use of two of 2013’s
most used pop culture actions – the taking of a
‘selfie’ and the ‘photobombing’ of said selfie is
ingenious. Almost everyone can relate because
almost everyone does it.
Another #kobevmessi slam-dunk and the
benchmark for celebrity starred online content has
been set.
How to get in the game
Sports Communication Australia is in the business of sport so we will stick to this
athlete ambassador model but the same principals remain if you are using a
blockbuster movie star, a stadium-filling musician or a TV chef.
So how do you get on the video advertising court with an athlete-celeb?
Here are some thoughts to get started:

•
•
•
•
•

Start by looking at someone that matches your brand attributes and fits with your
marketing message
How can you engage the athlete? Do they have a manager?
What is your budget for the ambassador / storyteller? Can you afford your target
or do you need to look at a smaller fish?
Can they tell your brand story and can you create some good content with them?
If they don’t tick both of these boxes maybe look elsewhere.
Can the partnership add value to their brand too or is it just a bulge in their bank
account? You want their buy in too!
Have a go!
Once you have answered those questions and you
still want to dive in, come up with a creative
concept. You’ll want that when you pitch to the
athlete and their manager because they will not
want to hitch their wagon to a bad or incompatible
story.
If you’re happy with your idea, then go on, have a
go. You might just be surprised at the end result!
What if I don’t have deep pockets?
Unfortunately, not every brand can afford the
services of the multi-million dollar enterprises
that are Messrs Messi and Bryant….BUT you don’t
need a huge budget to effectively tell your story
and have it go viral. Video can work whether
you’re big or small.

This clever low budget video is not celebrity
related and uses a company employee (or an
actor playing the company employee) to deliver
the message with amazing success.
You can play, just be creative
Many brands think they can't afford to do video
when really they can, they just need some
creativity.

And if having a celebrity brand ambassador is
not for you, stick to the basics and make sure
you have good content. And make sure to be
sure that you are using it to tell your story in an
online video.
