Partnering with austereo for the ubet jet promotion enabled us to amplify the ubet brand in the highly competitive brisbane market during the 2016 state of origin series.

Insights and Solution

On air: To secure a seat on the Ubet Jet listeners registered at triplem.com.au and then listen out across the workday for Marto and Ed’s Ubet Jet boarding call announcing a name and suburb. Passengers were given a nominated time-frame to call the station in order to claim their seat on the Ubet Jet. Ubet Jet flooded Triple M across the 2.5 weeks leading in to Origin Game 1. By including Ubet in the title of the Promotion along with substantial Ubet exposure on air, online, across Triple M social media platforms, and on the ground we solidified Ubet’s alignment to Triple M and our audience. This promotion also received TV exposure on Channel 7 during their News broadcast in Brisbane.

On Ground: On game day winners were greeted at Brisbane airport with an exclusive Ubet Jet checking desk, Former Origin Great Shane Webcke in the Boarding Lounge, along with a Ubet Jet media wall and Triple M cheerleaders for photo and social media opportunities. Once in Sydney, the Ubet Jet-load of Maroons fans were bussed to ANZ Stadium to watch the Maroons take the win over
NSW.
