Entry Division: Permanent

Entrant Company Name: ATE UNLIMITED AUSTRALIA PTY LTD

Talking Stones have a unique product that they wanted to market in a difficult environment. The passing of a loved pet is a difficult time for anyone. As kids, we used to find a special stone or plant to place over that special place in the back yard. Talking Stones gives the consumer the opportunity to make that place even more special with their individually engraved river stones. Along with these river stones of remembrance Talking Stones also offer a range of engraved stones of different shapes and sizes for a number of different occasions including specially engraved pavers for the driveway or fund raiser events. I know I have already purchased an engraved paver for my primary school at our 25 year reunion. The client requested a permanent display unit to place in pet stores. The stand needed to have a small footprint, be clean and simple and take the weight of 4 river stones. The client wanted the stand to have a modern streamline look that would stand out in its environment and present the product perfectly.

ACP Magazines is Australia's leading magazine publisher. In 2008, ACP Magazines launched 3 brand new magazines - Top Gear, Grazia and Good Food. These magazine brands had all been successfully launched in other countries, but were new to the Australian marketplace. The challenge therefore was twofold: 1) Convincing retailers to dedicate precious front-of-store space to new, unproven products2) Ensuring that having exposed consumers to a significant marketing campaign, the new product was highly visible in stores to encourage impulse purchasing (a large proportion of magazine sales are based on impulse)The marketing objectives for all 3 magazine launches were to raise brand awareness and generate trial of the magazine. The dumpbin helped to meet those objectives by providing a front-of-store solution that encouraged trial and impulse purchasing yet used a very small footprint.
