Telstra launches the next chapter of the ‘wherever we go’ brand platform with a distinctive new integrated campaign. This kicks off a repositioning for Telstra Business as the first choice in connectivity for Australian businesses and celebrates the unlimited potential of partnership.
The film, an unexpected story of a shoemaker and his travelling store, is set in a fable-like world, full of eccentric customers who look forward to the shoemaker rolling into town and was brought to life by Steve Rogers and Revolver.
To accompany the film a simple, illustrative world has been crafted for out-of-home, with illustrator Ben Hasler and paper artist Kyle Bean, and includes playfully painted wall murals and special builds.
More direct, tangible benefits of Telstra Business, including Business Internet and access to expert advice at Telstra Business Technology Centres, are also featured in both social and digital as well as point of sale.
“At Telstra, our ambition is to partner with all Australian businesses to provide safe and reliable connectivity solutions that meet their needs. We know how critical this is for any business and the message we want to share with this campaign is that we promise to support you, wherever your business may go,” said Amanda Hutton, Group Executive, Telstra Business.
“Every small business is a journey,’’ said Micah Walker, Chief Creative Officer of BMEOF. “This is a story about what’s possible when you have the right support and partnership behind you.”
“Business owners are inherently imaginative people; they have a vision of where they want to go. We wanted to create a campaign that reflects that ideal, without holding up a mirror to the audience,” adds Blake Crosbie, Managing Director of +61.
