Grand Hyatt Melbourne metamorphosis well underway

The scaffolding is slowly disappearing from Grand Hyatt Melbourne and new stand out hoardings designed and produced by Twenty20 are brightening up the Russell St. streetscape. The design and production of these hoardings have been a challenge for Andrew and Glenda – an interchangeable solution which needed to fit the builders demand for flexibility and a surface which could deal with the inevitable attention of the graffiti terrorists.

Finally, after twelve months into the $45M redevelopment, GHM has entered the final phase of the hotel's metamorphosis, the interior fit out. 85% of hotel operations will be back on-line before this year's Spring Carnival. At this stage they are aiming to reopen the hotels upper lobby, restaurant and bar in early October with small areas of works continuing in the Russell Street porte cochere until early December. “The Residence”, an exciting new concept, will be complete by the end of December and the hotel is currently taking inquiries for this new exclusive events venue from March 2009.

Returning true “Grand Hyatt” luxury to Melbourne has been at the heart of the re-launch strategy – our new advertising campaign will be start appearing in the next couple of months. More...

Salmat & Twenty20 successfully launches Australia's first retail search engine - Lasoo

Lasoo.com.au is one of three new products to originate from Salmat DigitalForce in the latter half of 2007, and the first new product to market under the new look Salmat Limited brand.

Lasoo.com.au is an aggregated retail advertising website, gathering traditional retail advertisements such as catalogues, press, TV and radio and converting them into retail offers completely browsable and searchable by product, price, retailer, suburb, brand or category. Put simply, Lasoo.com.au is a search engine for retail offers.

The communication strategy, brand identity and creative campaign was created, developed, and executed by Twenty20. The creative idea focussed around introducing a new phrase to the shopping process – pre-shop – and alluding to the power it gave to consumers through a series of intriguing ads that directed people to the website.

OMD developed the media plan, strategy, and executed one of the more impressive premium outdoor buys of 2007.

Within weeks of its November launch, Lasoo.com.au has been a huge success with Hitwise data placing it as a market leader. The number of Unique Visitors continues to grow with daily peaks of just under 20,000 late in November and over 44,000 in December, as people were ‘pre-shopping’ for Christmas. To date, Lasoo.com.au has served more than 700,000 daily unique visitors, 64 million product offer impressions and 7 million page views on behalf of participating retailers.

“New shopping search engine, Lasoo featured as the fastest moving search term to the Shopping & Classifieds industry for the 4 weeks ending 1 December 2007, indicating a successful launch campaign.”

Sandra Hanchard, Hitwise, 11 December 2007

Along with the consumer success of the website, the response from retailers to the product has been over-whelming with over major 50 retailers participating.

The campaign rolled out Australia-wide with a mix of direct mail, premium outdoor, transit media, radio and digital.
