Latest campaign

As a not-for-profit organisation, the majority of the funds we receive from licence fees go right back into protecting and promoting the logo, for the benefit of all that use it. The Australian Made Campaign's 'Genuine Aussie' summer marketing and communications campaign will wrap up at the end of the month. Here were some of the highlights:

• National online advertising
  
  Online advertisements helped drive hundreds of thousands of visitors to the Australian Made website over summer. Last month alone the website received 90,000 visits, with individual licensee pages visited 77,000 times. You can view some of the creatives below:
  
   

• National outdoor advertising 
  
  Billboards featuring the 'Genuine Aussie' tagline were secured in high traffic areas in major metro and rural locations throughout the country, keeping the logo top-of-mind beyond point of purchase as well. Here are a few examples:
  
   

• National radio advertising
  
  Australian Made branded sports segments featuring the 'Genuine Aussie' tagline encouraged shoppers to look for the logo and helped drive the message home about 'supporting our own'. Listen to examples below:

• 12-page Australia Day feature in The Age and Sydney Morning Herald
  
  Fairfax Media's 12-page Australia Day liftout, which was published in the Sydney Morning Herald and The Age on Australia Day, showcased the logo as the best way to identify genuine Australian products, via advertising and interviews with key spokespeople. A number of logo licensees were interviewed as part of the feature as well. The lowest, most affordable advertising rates ever secured for licensees were negotiated for the liftout, resulting in significant exposure and excellent value for money for participating brands in these top tier publications at a highly relevant time of year.
