NAB Break up wins ADMA awards

NAB has won top honours at the Australian Direct Marketing Association awards last night.

Launched on Twitter and YouTube using live stunts on Valentine’s Day, the key element of the campaign was to create a buzz around the fact NAB was ‘breaking up’ with the other major national banks – without the use of TV advertising.

Sandra De Castro, NAB’s CMO, received the award on behalf of the bank.

The campaign was conceived with the help of agency Clemenger BBDO, which also won the ADMA Awards Grand Prix for Break Up.

Young direct marketer of the year award went to Rebecca Bezzina, group account director at Mark. Bezzina leads a team of seven across clients such as Qantas, Google, Nestle, Australian Councer Research Foundation.
