Is Poly Education For Your Child?

In 2009, I was asked to conceptualise and manage a campaign to promote Ngee Ann Polytechnic’s Parenting Seminar.

Entitled “Is Poly Education For Your Child?”, this campaign included print advertisements in local newspapers, radio spots, electronic direct mailers and online advertising on local news portals such as AsiaOne.com and StraitsTimes.com. A handbook for parents and a direct mailer to invite them to the event were also produced.

These include The Centrepoint, Waterway Point, Changi City Point, Northpoint, Bedok Point, Anchorpoint, Robertson Walk, Valley Point and more.

For these campaigns, we work with the individual marketing departments of each mall and begin with a creative concept (as seen in the slideshow above). These creative concepts are then adapted to other collaterals such as press ads, direct mailers and in-mall items. Each job also requires me to write copy  for planned activities as well as edit dining and shopping offers.
