A Romantic Date for Dog Lovers
We came up with this creative event idea and proposed it to our clients, which eventually took place in the Retail Parks at Bray, Waterford (Maxi Zoo), Drogheda (Pet Bliss), Navan (Petmania) and Sligo (Pet Stop Discount Warehouse). Our retail partners agreed to offer discounts and free dog treats while we took care of human food, the production side and the main show – portrait shots by our professional photographer. An online registration system was introduced to this retail event to better manage the crowd in stores.
What We Provided
Graphic Design, Photography, Video Production, Social Media Management, Event Planning, Event Management, Retail Communication, Retail Event
Results: An Awards Nomination
91% of the tickets were sold out. 80+ groups of dogs and family join the events. Lots of dog treats were consumed, and lots of dog urine were cleaned up. Our clients were happy with the boost of sales and positive brand recognition within local community. The Dog Date in Sligo was shortlisted for Most Effective Use of Photography at Irish Content Marketing Awards 2020 (ICMA).
