Bank of Melbourne takes Hey You marketing message to the road with bikie barista
The Bank of Melbourne wants to convey how fast its payment app Hey You is by serving customers the world’s fastest coffee.
In a new campaign from Saatchi& Saatchi Melbourne, a professional coffee machine has been adapted to fit in the sidecar of a high-powered motorcycle to promote the launch of the order-ahead app.
The fast-moving coffee machine, built with the help of a Melbourne coffee shop Clark’s Street Coffee and a V8 Supercar mechanic named Dave, stars in a minute-long film ‘The Race To Make Long Mach – The World’s Fastest Coffee’ that will be seeded through social media.
The custom coffee-cycle will visit locations throughout Melbourne to serve coffee and raise awareness of the app.
Jac Phillips, head of brand and marketing at Bank of Melbourne, said the unique motorbike provided a perfect way to promote the bank’s support for the start-up application.
“Bank of Melbourne is proud to support innovative start-up Hey You and the team of local makers that made the dream of super-fast coffee a reality with Long Mach,” Phillips said.

I only understood what the intent of the tvc was by reading the article. But I enjoyed watching it.

So the client wants downloads of the banking app?
Why not use a mobile specialist that can clearly provide a CPI or CPE engagement model for app downloads. These models use third party tracking and costs approx $5 for an install.
I would love to see the ROI from this campaign (number of app installs for the bank) I bet there is no accountability.
