Belair new commercial focuses on the agent THE Belair marketing and brand awareness campaign has been building momentum, following the successful launch of "List with Us and Win campaign" earlier in the year, it now it takes another leap forward with the official launch of the "Belair - As easy as you imagine it to be" TV Com- mercial. The new commercial, produced by Pure Media following the creative concept and direction by Kevin Naudi, Active Advertising, focuses on the Belair agent, re- nowned for his dedication to his client, as dedicated as a father is to his son. The commercial features a father engrossed in playing with his son. The boy builds a house with bricks and together they use figurines to role play the agents selling the house. Throughout the game, the fa- ther teaches his son the art of be- ing of good property negotiator, pretending to receive calls and set appointments with potential clients. Scene changes when the father receives an actual phone call from a potential buyer. He promptly drops everything and rushes out to assist his client. The Belair TV Commercial made its debut on TVM during the Champions league final and 6pm news last week. The spots will air throughout the month of June during 8pm news, Britain's got talent and other TVM sched- uled programs. Belair chose TVM for its extensive reach into the home buyer and seller audiences. Heineken, Charles Grech Co. Ltd give Maltese customers a UEFA Champions League experience HEINEKEN gave Maltese cus- tomers an unprecedented UEFA Champions League experience when they hosted a number of VIP clients to a viewing of the Champions League final in Berlin between Barcelona and Juventus at their café in Valletta. Similar to what happens in VIP enclosures of Europe's stadia dur- ing UEFA Champions League finals, the distinguished guests were welcomed by hostesses, cold Heineken and canapes were served. Given the electrifying at- mosphere of the game which saw Barcelona scoring in the first four minutes and Juventus drawing just after halftime only for Barce- lona to take the lead a few minutes later and then scoring again in the final seconds and the stylish am- biance of cafe' Charles Grech in Valletta, it was a truly enjoyable night out. Apart from the Valletta event, Heineken and Charles Grech Ltd also organised two public view- ing events at the Tigullio car park and Hugo's Pub. The aim of these events is to enhance the viewing experience of UCL matches and strengthen the relation between Heineken and UCL. Consumers could enjoy Heineken on the spe- cial Champions League sofa, while they were watching the game. Right from the semi-final stag- es, Charles Grech Co. Ltd and Heineken also hosted multi pro- motional events in various out- lets, where consumers had the opportunity to win great prizes. The promotions were aimed at creating excitement and engage- ment between consumers and the brand. The Heineken brand has a long- standing sponsorship with the UEFA Champions League. The global, premier sporting event fits perfectly with the Heineken brand, being the world's most in- ternational premium beer. Heineken will continue as an of- ficial partner of the world's most prestigious club football competi- tion up to and including the 2017 / 2018 season. Heineken has been an integral partner of the UEFA Champions League since 2005. The sponsorship allows Heineken to elevate its global status as the world's favourite beer.
