Advertising Agency Brisbane, Interactive Media, Creative Marketing and Digital Branding - BCM: Two Cents

What started out as boardroom banter a few weeks earlier, this morning ended up being showcased on Channel 9’s Today Show and Reuter’s international news service as a cut-through April Fool’s Day joke.

BCM, together with client Pelikan Artline, brought the Artline brand positioning of ‘The pens more people pinch’ to life by introducing a groundbreaking, new technology - trackable microchiped Artline pens that allow people to track the whereabouts of their missing pen to within a metre, anywhere on earth.

Press ads promoting this new whiz-bang technology appeared today in The Australian, Sydney Morning Herald, The Age and Perth’s Western Australian, slipping under the ‘hoax-radar’ of countless readers.

A happy client. A thrilled agency. And a keen public who once again appreciated the quirky, topical thinking that is becoming a hallmark of Artline marketing.

Check out the coverage on the Today Show.
