IAD: Avoid The Worst With IAD

Created in 2008, IAD stands out for its new decompartmentalized model, becoming a real “game changer” on the French real estate market: revolutionizing the market by digitizing physical agencies in order to offer a more efficient and competitive service to end customers.

Agents are their own bosses, with their own objectives and constraints, and on their own time, allowing them to be ultra-available to their customers.

A profitable investment, as evidenced by the 95% satisfactory rating homesellers have with the services proposed by their IAD advisors (Source: immodvisor.com).

Since IAD was created in 2008, it has helped more than 180,000 individuals and families sell their homes or find the property of their dreams.

After a first campaign together last year aimed at expanding the network of advisors, IAD and its agency Rosapark are teaming up again to address property sellers, this time by focusing on timing and the importance of having an advisor who’s actively involved, essential at this stage.

Whether selling your property alone, as a couple or as a family, it’s a significant and emotional moment.

But things aren’t always so rosy… hence the importance of having the right advisor by your side, one that’s attentive and available.

For its first TV ad, IAD and Rosapark wanted to highlight the professionalism of the network’s advisors, using a humorous and offbeat tone, specific to IAD’s DNA.

The campaign starts with a simple observation: living with your ex is hell. And if you have to live together while waiting for your house to sell, it’s better to have an agent who’s actually involved.

Directed by Victor Saint-Macary (Ami-Ami), the film features a divorced couple who are going bonkers after months of living together. It’s only when they’ve reached the point of no return, dramatized by a very cinematographic sequence, that they get a call back from their advisor, promising to handle their dossier.

There are numerous examples of couples tearing into each other in the cinematic world – think The War of the Roses, Mr. & Mrs. Smith – and this was a chance to pay homage to the genre, in an advertising context.

Internauts can also take part in the campaign, by tweeting about the worst memories with exes #LePireQuandTuVisAvecTonEx

(#TheWorstWhenYouLiveWithYourEx) and IAD will post short videos of IAD advisors answering the most commonly asked questions, highlighting their expertise and professionalism.

TV networks beware: Auto ad spending growth will slow to a crawl this year


Global automotive ad spending growth will slow considerably this yeara potentially ominous sign for TV networks that rely heavily on the sectoraccording to a new forecast.

Publicis Groupe-owned Zenith projects auto spending to grow by just 0.8 percent, down from 1.5 percent growth in 2018. The report, issued today, covers 14 marketsincluding the U.S., U.K., China, Brazil and Indiathat account for 76 percent of global spending for all categories. Automotive spending in those countries totaled $35.5 billion in 2018.

“Auto brands are expecting a tough year in 2019 as they face continued tension in trading relations, particularly between the U.S. and China, and the possible imposition of car import tariffs in the U.S. making it more expensive for manufacturers to source raw materials and parts, as well as to sell across borders,” Zenith stated.

River Mall: A shopping mall loved by those who hate to shop

Design
River Mall

Nobody loves shopping. Yet. River Mall is the first shopping center of its kind in the most densely populated and youngest neighborhood group of Kyiv: Poznyaki/Osokorky/Kharkivskyi. Thanks to its various unique boutiques, flagship Silpo supermarket, IMAX theatre, food court with a variety of cuisines from around the world and beautiful boardwalk along the Dnipro river, there’s no need to loudly invite anyone. We could just stop there and not work further. 

But no. Not everyone loves malls. Well, what could we do? Challenge accepted. Strategy. “Wasted weekends would be better spent on events that are more appropriate and useful for myself and my family.” A large number of people don’t get any particular pleasure from shopping and would rather spend their time lounging on the couch, watching movies, firing up the grill or going to the dacha. This insight, together with the physical location of River Mall, gave us its positioning— laid back shopping that allows people to get stress relief, relax, enjoy shopping, food and walks and everything that isn’t normally associated with shopping malls. Not an identity. 

An ecosystem. A river is never same as it was a few seconds ago. With every moment, there’s new water, changing directions, different waves. The flora and fauna are always in motion. We applied this principle of constant change to the River Mall identity. We didn’t just create a logo. Rather, we create a principle from which you can create a million logos. And each will be different from the previous. π?ντα ρε? κα? ο?δ?ν μ?νει* *Everything flows. Everything changes. The dynamic identity is based on typography and creates unique, unrepeated patterns. It underscores the fact that you never enter the same River Mall twice. With each new trip, something unique is waiting to greet you: new collections of clothes, movie premieres, speciality dishes, fresh products and pastries. 

We chose royal blue and coral red for the main version of the logo, which contrast with the written element. Secondary colors, which are indirectly related to the main palette, work to complement the object, and can be used to emphasize seasonality in communications or zoning in the shopping center itself. Additionally, the identity works to create a navigation system that doesn’t need a logo to remind a person they’re interacting with the River Mall ecosystem. To keep the identity comfortable for everyone, we avoided creating any strict rules for using the logo. Instead, we developed a set of branded brushes for graphic editors to use as they please. And that’s the truth. Complete freedom. Only the laws of chaos reign.
