3. Video Marketing – some points to shape thinking • How can Discovery use video advertising to create awareness, increase engagement, or educate clients on products and generate leads for financial services, especially car/life insurance? • Should we have specific tactics for paid advertising – or can we just re-use videos produced for our website pages/content? • How do repurpose television ads to reuse on digital? What should be consider in a digital–specific execution? Consider software that we, as marketers, could use to edit our own videos? • How can do we personalise videos in bulk and scale this? • Show us the full client journey, during which a client will interact with a video? • There are standard metrics for measuring video, tell us if we should be doing anything differently. • Shows us brands that have excellent video marketing strategies.

Rugby World Cup tactical marketing – some points to shape thinking • Consider tactics before, during and after the tournament. • How would you leverage off the Springboks participation in evoking a sense of nation building and positivity even though we do not sponsor the team. • What would be your strategy should the Springboks not perform or make it past the pool stages? • During live events: how should we manage the unpredictability of the outcome as well as for events during each match. • How would you differentiate our tactics for Facebook vs Twitter vs Instagram vs Snapchat (include all social media platforms you think are relevant here). • How do we leverage Twitter TV targeting, Instagram TV and Snap Lifestyle categories most effectively . • Consider how we should approach specific ad formats such as Instagram carousels. • Show us other brands who’ve done a remarkable job of garnering awareness for their own brand by leveraging the attention focused on big sporting events.
