FNBAz was unable to match their competitors in “messaging reach” and media weight due to their size (brand is under-supported in relationship to the retail competitive set). Therefore, a strategy was needed to break through the financial industry clutter.
Merge customer’s banking fears, frustrations and impersonal service experiences with FNBAz’s core qualities and value-driven initiatives through a non-traditional ad campaign. Barclay developed a unique “problem-solution” ad campaign that featured various scenarios showing pint-size humans being overwhelmed by large, dominating corporate bankers. The ads reflected that dealing with local, privately-held bankers was the “cure” for such customer phobias.
The bank experienced an increase in calls and walk-in traffic during the period of time that the campaign ran and they ran out of the incentive gifts that were offered to new customers. Recognition was garnered in “The Arizona Republic” for excellence in an ad campaign and Barclay was awarded a Copper Quill Award for outstanding communications programming.
