Austria's best makers as part of the Hornbach community

As the leading project market in Austria, Hornbach has a large community. How can we consolidate, inspire and further expand the strong Hornbach community? How do we combine national campaign radiance with regional advertising? 

Solution

Austria's first project championship

Austrian tradespeople are getting their own event for the first time: the Hornbach Project Championship. There, they can put their expertise and craftsmanship to the test. A content-centered and regionally adapted media strategy draws attention to the event in the DIY community and encourages participation. Regional addressable TV & display ads, exclusive radio inserts and regional print cooperations call on makers to measure their DIY talent against the best in the country. With short stories and an exclusively created TV format around the final, we also bring Hornbach into the Austrian TV program.
