04/29/2009 - Effie Awards, David vs. Goliath
Erbert & Gerbert's has been awarded, on behalf of the The Effie Awards and the New York American Marketing Association, a winning entry in the 2009 North American Effie Awards competition: Erbert & Gerbert's Subs & Clubs in the David vs. Goliath category.
The case study provided for the Effies highlights all Erbert & Gerbert's marketing communications activities during the last 24 months, including store redesign, icon redesign, print advertising, radio advertising, guerilla marketing, public relations activities, Humanflipbook.com, and Candle Cannon campaigns.
It explained how Erbert & Gerbert's focused limited marketing dollars on a fresh brand experience to differentiate itself from the sub giants, creating an excitement and buzz online and offline - all while maintaining price point integrity.
The David vs. Goliath category is one of the most coveted categories in the competition as there are no specific industry restrictions for entrants. Erbert & Gerbert's will appear alongside brands such as McDonalds and Nokia at the Effie Gala on the evening of June 3, 2009, to receive either a gold, silver or bronze trophy in the category. Being included as a finalist is an honor in itself, as less than one-eighth of entering case studies emerge as winners.
The Effie Awards honor the most significant achievement in marketing communications: ideas that work. Known by advertisers and marketers globally as the pre-eminent award in the industry, the Effies recognize any and all forms of marketing communication that contribute to a brand's success. Any marketing medium is eligible for an Effie, as long as results are proven, including Print, TV, Radio, Outdoor, Internet, Guerrilla, Digital, Package Design, Events, Street Teams, PR, Paid or Unpaid Media.
Being chosen as creators of one of the year's most effective marketing case studies is an honor and a testament to the strength of the Erbert & Gerbert's brand supported by the strength of our franchise system.
