Aviva also received 5” sponsor bumpers around all Drama Premiere video content

  6. ITV1 Drama Premieres with Aviva: Phase 1 Activation Online sponsorship: After the re-brand from Norwich Union, Aviva used the unique sponsorship platform to communicate with their audience and raise awareness of both the brand and the breadth of products available. They also established a link with Drama Premieres by including information about Monday Monday, the first Drama Premiere in the package. Users were given the opportunity to play a personality quiz.

ITV1 Drama Premieres with Aviva: Phase 1 Activation Interactive Sponsorship: • Aviva brand prominence on ITV Drama Premieres hub within the ITV 24/7 menu and behind the red button • To tie in with Monday Monday ITV re-created the online personality quiz. Viewers were incentivised to interact by promoting a programme-linked competition, with spa vouchers as prizes. As this activation tied in with the corporate re-brand, Aviva also used the opportunity to communicate with users about the brand and the breadth of the product solutions available

  8. ITV1 Drama Premieres with Aviva: Phase 2 Activation Online sponsorship: Taking on board learnings from Phase 1, ITV and Aviva redeveloped the Aviva online microsite to create a site that provided even more user engagement than the previous incarnation. As a result of the rebuild the new site had a cleaner, fresher look and revolved around Aviva’s ‘Financial Wellbeing’ campaign and a new competition that offered users the opportunity to win weekly high street vouchers The rebuild also saw the launch of the ‘Aviva Challenge – in association with Batak’. This game was designed to offer a deeper level of engagement for users, allowing Aviva to connect with possible customers in a new and exciting way. The Batak game itself linked directly into existing activity already being used by Aviva at their national consumer roadshows Results: • 18,018 people visited the site • 20,778 page views • 50 sec avg. time on site • 5,110 game plays • 354 prize draw entries

The game achieved almost 70,000 downloads across the four phases

  10. ITV1 Drama Premieres with Aviva: Phase 3 Activation Online Sponsorship: For Phase 3 of the sponsorship we refreshed the online microsite once again bringing it in line with Aviva’s latest marketing campaign activity. This included information about ‘planning your future’ and also cross-promotional information about their involvement with UK Athletics. Having seen a significant increase in traffic in Phase 2, the Batak game also remained on the site Having previously tried more frequent, perceptually lower value prizes for the previous two phases it was decided to offer a ‘chance of a lifetime’ prize, designed to increase awareness and traffic. Aviva chose to again link in to programme content using a holiday voucher and images of a safari trip, thus linking the competition to ‘Wild at Heart’, the Drama Premiere on air at the time of launch Results • 6,728 people visited the site • 9,649 page views • 3 min 15 sec avg. time on site • 174 game plays • 19,038 competition entries
