Tourism NT pitches for creative and media for fourth time in four years
Tourism Northern Territory is reviewing all its marketing agencies, with the Publicis Groupe of agencies on alert.
The pitch is Tourism NT’s fourth in four years, after a consortium of Publicis Groupe agencies picked up the account, with Publicis Mojo on creative, Zenith Optimedia on media and Razorfish on digital.
When the account was awarded last March the contract was set for a two year period, with a minimum of $1m to be spent on creative and $6m on media per year.
According to the tender website submissions are set to close on October 22, with 303Lowe, Cummins & Partners, LOUD Communications, M&C Saatchi Melbourne, Moon Communications, Naked Communications, JWT, Y&R Group and Whybin\TBWA Melbourne all listed as “prospective tenderers”.

That is not people who have tendered, just the parties who have signed up to take a look at the tender documents.
OMG! Is this true? Couldn’t see any agency names that start with E, K, U or X, c’mon guys, join the free for all … Look forward to an update of the long list of agencies which withdraw from the A-Z list!
Whybin TBWA in New Zealand and Whybin TBWA in Sydney both look after Tourism New Zealand?
Is that not a bit of kick in the you know whats?
They hold both the Tourism New Zealand Accounts and the Tourism NT accounts?
hmm I wonder what QBE Insurance Group Limited are going to offer them in regards to marketing related services. Thought their game was insurance, though could be wrong.
“Disclaimer: Tourism NT is currently advertising on Mumbrella”
4 pitches in 4 years.
Speaks volumes.
The bottom line is that overall NT visitor nights in the FY14 fell -4.2% driven by a dramatic fall in domestic night of -12%.
