NRMA Insurance heroes its workers in latest campaign via The Monkeys
IAG’s NRMA Insurance has released its latest campaign with The Monkeys, part of Accenture Interactive.
The ‘Help Like No One Else’ campaign film follows Judi, who has been an NRMA Insurance assessor for 32 years.
The 60 second spot follows Judi as she travels to NRMA Insurance customers to assist with their insurance claims. The spot begins with Judi picking up the phone and driving, on phone calls, before arriving at a house half destroyed. Intercut are references to natural disasters such as storms and bushfires.
Brent Smart, NRMA Insurance chief marketing officer, said: “Since I joined the company, I’ve heard incredible stories of how our people help. The challenge is how to tell those incredible stories in a way that doesn’t feel like just another testimonial employee ad. We found a way creatively to honour our incredible people and the way they help our customers.”
Barbara Humphries, creative director at The Monkeys, said: “While you can never prepare for how you’ll react when the unexpected happens, NRMA Insurance assessors spend their whole lives preparing to help you in that moment.
“Hearing Judi talk about many years on the job, experiencing some of Australia’s worst moments, we were moved by the courage, empathy and dedication that sets her and her team apart. We were determined to tell that story.”
The campaign will be on broadcast, cinema, out-of-home, press and radio.
IAG, NRMA Insurance’s parent company, recently announced it was moving its media account from WPP to IPG Mediabrands agency Initiative from 1 August.
