Nomad invests in major processing upgrade
Prepaid card processor Nomad has announced a major upgrade to its IBM managed infrastructure.
The central theme is 'What's your v?', a strapline designed to engage the youth market to help them match their hobbies and passions to the diverse collection of volunteering opportunities available.
The thrust of the activity is that whatever your interest there is a volunteering job, or 'v', to suit you.
The campaign messaging evolves over time to lead prospects from initial engagement through to advocacy.
The targeting and channel selection were developed in conjunction with i-rise, the new communications planning venture launched by iris and Rise.
The initial phase of the campaign will launch this September and run until March 2008.
Alistair Bryan at iris said: "It's a challenging objective - inspiring young people to realise that they can act on their concerns and beliefs to make a difference in their community, but v has a unique proposition and a fresh new approach to volunteering.
"The work reflects a great collaboration between iris, v and i-rise to discover the optimum audience and messaging".
Mel Foster at v added: "The creative for this campaign looks to connect with the enthusiasm and energy young people have for their personal passions; through the combination of media channels and a strong call to action, we feel confident that this campaign will change the perception of volunteering, allowing young people to realise they can combine their interests with volunteering, having fun while benefiting the community and themselves".
