Dr. Oetker and Picstars create a romantic mood

In a recent Picstars campaign for Dr. Oetker, four Instagram influencers share their personal #Ristorant moments.

Since the market launch of Pizza Ristorante in Switzerland in 1986, Dr. Oetker has focused on the theme of romance in its communications. The campaigns have always featured moments of enjoyment for two. Dr. Oetker is now taking this recognizable element of Ristorante communication to social media and implementing an influencer campaign in cooperation with Picstars.

Four Influencer*innen show together with their partner the perfect #Ristorantemoment and provide a personal insight into an uncomplicated, romantic evening for two, where the pizza Ristorante may not be missing. In addition, the influencers will raffle off a Ristorante Romantic Box in their communities.

Part of the campaign are Sara Leutenegger with her partner Lorenzo, Steven Epprecht with his partner Marcos, Céline Perret with her partner Olivier and Jasmine Kopp with her partner Jan.

"Influencer marketing has already been an integral part of our communication strategy for several years - both for the pizza range and in the baking area. We recently received confirmation again with the launch of our new pizza brand 'The Good Baker' that influencer marketing can be a useful addition to the media mix and would now like to use it to enrich ristorante communications as well," explains Walentina Mejenina, Media & Communications Manager at Dr. Oetker Switzerland.

The influencer campaign started on Friday. The content is posted organically on the respective channels of the influencers and on Dr. Oetker's pizza channel. To increase the reach beyond the existing communities, the content is also played out via branded content ads.


Responsible at Dr. Oetker: Walentina Mejenina (Media & Communications Manager), Sarah Siegrist (Digital Manager), Helen Yildirim (Product Manager Pizza). Responsible at Picstars: Natalie Lola Akinola (Campaign Manager), Salim Mzee (Senior Campaign Manager), Luca Graf (Key Account Manager).

 

Farner Branding refreshes the Oneconsult brand

Farner Branding is helping Oneconsult launch a new, modern website and revamp its entire brand identity.

OneconsultThe Oneconsult group of companies has been a product and vendor independent Swiss Cybersecurity Services Partner since 2003 with offices in Thalwil, Bern and Munich. They have been consulting in various areas of cybersecurity since 2003.

Increasingly, Oneconsult felt the need for a more modern web presence. With this in mind, the company turned to Farner Branding. Based on a positioning workshop in which values and tonality were redefined, the agency revised the entire brand presence. The logo, color scheme, typography, pictograms, infographics and imagery were designed and implemented.

Just in time for the CEO change at the beginning of the year, the redesign was launched with the new website as the key application.
Farner Branding also documented the refreshed brand elements and key applications in a digital brand manual with an integrated image database. In line with these new guidelines, the social media presence was also modernized.

In addition to freshing up the brand presence, Farner assists with social media content design, editorial planning and PR/media relations.

ERF Medien launches promotional award for Swiss music

Following the relaunch of the Music Loft in May 2021, ERF Medien's music promotion project is entering the next round. The sponsorship award is intended to invest a total of 5,000 Swiss francs annually in new Swiss music.

Schweizer Musik"I wish for a next year that is easier for us musicians," said Joel Goldenberger recently in the Christmas Music Loft. The Aargau native's personal Christmas wish accidentally sums up for ERF Medien what is currently on the minds of Swiss artists.

Because with the current pandemic situation, the related uncertainties for live concerts and the changes in recent years towards the streaming market, it seems that things are getting tighter in the music business.

Music Loft has set itself the goal of promoting new Swiss music: with the video format, the platform and the new sponsorship award. Because right now, music needs support.

Hopeful projects sought

The Music Loft sponsorship prize worth 4000 Swiss francs will be awarded at the end of August - to a pop music project that looks hopeful in the eyes of the jury. There is no age restriction.

However, the sponsorship prize is only awarded to Swiss women and men musicians and musicians residing in Switzerland. In addition, artists who personally or with their art deal with Christian spiritual content will be considered.

From the registered projects, five other contenders have the chance to win the "Community Liebling". The Music Loft community will be able to choose their favorite, who will receive 1000 Swiss francs in funding.

Registration for the new grant has been open since Monday.

Goldbach Audience wins pitch for marketing Oneplus

CH Media's new streaming service will now be marketed exclusively by Goldbach Audience. The media company prevailed over other contenders in a pitch.

Oneplus

The new Swiss streaming service Oneplus has recently launched (Werbewoche.ch reported). CH Media's national TV stations, which previously had their own online offerings, will now be combined and offered centrally on Oneplus. The broadcast offering is to be consistently expanded in the process. The streaming service was launched as a so-called "freemium model," which means that both a paid subscription version and a free ad-financed version are available.

CH Media has chosen Goldbach Audience in a pitch for advertising sales of Oneplus. The streaming service is an optimal brand-safe premium environment for display or video placements, Goldbach Audience writes in a statement. The advertising formats would be selected in such a way that they would be perceived positively.

"With Oneplus, we offer advertisers the ideal opportunity to place their advertising message in high-quality environments with high advertising impact," explains Roger Elsener, Managing Director CH Media Entertainment and member of the company's Executive Board. "With Goldbach Audience, we have the perfect partner to successfully market Oneplus."

AWA media officer moves to Thalwil

Irene Tschopp, long-time head of media and deputy head of communications at the Office of Economic Affairs and Labor (AWA) of the Canton of Zurich, becomes communications officer for the municipality of Thalwil.

AWA-MedienverantwortlicheThere probably won't be any journalists who haven't had dealings with her in recent years: Irene Tschopp was the first point of contact for media inquiries at the Office of Economic and Labor Affairs for a total of 19 years. As of March, she will be steering the communications fortunes of the municipality of Thalwil. As communications officer, the linguist, historian and political scientist will then be responsible for the Lake Zurich municipality's internal and external communications.

"It's time for a change and I felt like making a change," Tschopp told Advertisingweek.ch. She finds it exciting to be involved in a more local, but thematically much broader way in the future. "At the community level, the tasks and topics are much more concrete than at the higher, cantonal level. That appeals to me."

In her almost 20 years at the Office of Economic Affairs and Labor, where Tschopp communicated on various topics such as unemployment, location competition, employee protection and housing subsidies, she must have handled thousands of media inquiries. But because the AWA's topics related to the economy and labor were always very much in focus, there had been more and more inquiries over the years.

Exciting time despite occasional "authority bashing

"I always found it exciting when there were crisis-like situations where rapid and proactive action was required - that's when communications work is particularly important and valuable." The dynamics at the beginning of the pandemic were also a new and exciting experience, he says, with the unbelievable flood of requests for short-time work and many media inquiries, constant new requirements, and ongoing internal personnel information.

In the course of almost two decades, there have also been occasional challenging inquiries in which the rules of journalism were not applied, Tschopp reveals. "But you can definitely defend yourself there, even if you are subject to data protection in the public service and the media also do 'authority bashing' now and then because of that."

In Thalwil, Irene Tschopp will be responsible for the whole range of communicative tasks of the political business and projects of the municipality. The mother of a daughter, who herself has lived in Thalwil for many years, is looking forward to being even closer to political events and to working for the entire range of tasks of a municipality.

Irene Tschopp replaces Joana Büchler in the municipality of Thalwil, who has held the position of communications officer for the town on the left bank of Lake Zurich since 2017.

In 2002, Tschopp joined the AWA as Head of Communications. She relinquished this position at her own request after ten years in order to have more time for her family with a smaller workload. For the past nine years, she has been the canton's media officer and deputy head of communications.

Before Tschopp specialized in government communications, she worked as a business journalist at Swisscontent, editor-in-chief of the magazine The labor market and in Geneva for the UN Press Service of the Economic Commission for Europe.

Polyconsult for Domicil: Motivated care professionals seek colleagues

Through a broad-based recruitment marketing campaign, Domicil is drawing attention to itself with compelling arguments about why it is a great place to work. Polyconsult designed and implemented the employer branding campaign.

Polyconsult für DomicilThe shortage of skilled nursing staff is a reality, and the work situation of dissatisfied nursing staff is a constant topic of public debate. Domicil now wants to show that things can be different. The company has been named Switzerland's best employer in the health and social care sector twice in a row by the independent "Great Place to Work" institute. The vast majority of Domicil employees are aware of the special importance of their work and feel valued by their employer.

Domicil wants to position itself as number 1 in the highly competitive employee market. And to do so, it is bringing the most credible ambassadors - its own employees - on board. The employer branding campaign aims to attract attention as an attractive employer with qualified employees, professional structures and processes, modern working methods, good working conditions, and values that are lived out. And, of course, to win over new nursing professionals.

15 different video and photo testimonials are used for the digital and analog out-of-home presence, the social media presence and the Domicil website.
