Why is this work relevant for Direct?
We found an innovative way to channel a completely new audience to try a new pizza.
Background
With thousands of restaurants in Dubai, and almost all of them on delivery apps, it's a tough place to launch and establish a new concept. PINZA, a pizza newcomer to the market came to Deliveroo wanted a bigger slice of the action. Knowing the saturated market, it was clear from the get-go PINZA needed something more than a regular restaurant promotion if the new brand was going to get noticed.
Describe the creative idea (30% of vote)
We bought a luxury apartment. And put it up for sale for the price of ONE PINZA - a lottery promo where you can win our apartment by buying a PINZA on Deliveroo. This allowed us to list our apartment across Dubai's many real estate agency sites.
Describe the strategy (20% of vote)
We needed a new audience to give our new pizza an edge. So we looked beyond the cluttered landscape of the food delivery world to promote PINZA, and instead towards one particular place in Dubai that has a lot of eyeballs - its bustling Real Estate market. This is one of the busiest markets in the world - a place full of prospective buyers and renters all on the lookout for the next hot property. So instead of trying to sell pizzas through the food delivery marketing world, we decided to sell pizzas through selling real estate!
Describe the execution (20% of vote)
By owning an apartment we were able to list it everywhere across Dubai's many real estate agency sites, getting PINZA front and centre to the biggest audience in town. And with our PINZA promo clearly visible within the property profile, those in the market for a new property, soon found themselves in the market for a new pizza.
Our apartment became a novel media space, allowing us to take full advantage of the real estate marketing world. We produced our own "Dubai style" real estate ads re-targeting anyone who had made a recent property search. We also got agents to show our apartment amongst their viewings in the 8 week campaign period.
