TvLowCost New Zealand Blog – Where the grass is greener for NZ Brands


Recession-Proof Advertising
Is your ad budget feeling the heat?

A TVLowCost pack buy may well provide the insulation you need in times of lower budgets and same performance expectations.

Traditional ‘high cost’ agencies are unable to reduce their costs significantly at a time when brands more than ever need to promote themselves smarter and at the lowest possible cost.

A Proven International Formula, without compromising production quality.

- 340* TARPS
- 3 Months on air
- All agency fees and creative
- Multiple TVC production and all on-air costs
- Research: concept pre-test + Omnibus awareness

- 180* national TV advertising spots

Do infobrand style ads work?
  • 75% of consumers aged 44-62 said they didn’t like infobrand commercials because they were using a TV programme style to sell a product, and they found them patronising*.
  • 72% of consumers switch off, as all ads look the same*.
  • Any credibility is lost when infobrand commercials promote dogfood one minute and over the counter products the next.
  • It’s not all about you. Why pay 20% of your production budget to develop someone else’s brand?

TVLowCost has developed a proprietory, radically simpler and less expensive methodology, which has been fine-tuned in each of the 11 countries we now operate. On average, our clients experience a 25% increase in sales. And with each project, ads are crafted from scratch to create effective and strong communications with high production values.
