Intentional is the first agency who actively encouraged us to get a worse ad account ROAS, in order to achieve a greater Shopify revenue result. If you’re looking for a way to grow your brand cross-border, I recommend Intentional

Canon collaborated with Intentional to deliver the integrated digital strategy for the global launch of the world’s 1st commercial inkjet. Intentional were able to deliver a carefully considered, retail appropriate, integrated, digital strategy that exploited the strengths of the new technology in ‘layman’ terms. From this launch, Canon was able to see its own technology in a new light with much of the digital and creative strategy sent back to Global Head Office to use as reference for future launches.

#DoItInTen

Ten lessons from ten years

We’ve had the privilege of being trusted to advertise some of Australia’s — and the world’s — most loved brands.

In that time, we’ve seen both the highs and lows of doing business online with our clients. So here are ten lessons our team have learned from our first decade.

Dream Big, Risk in Public

Thankyou

Thankyou-logo

We’ve worked with Thankyou team from the very first crowd-sourced social media campaign in 2011 to get Thankyou Water into 7 Eleven, to getting the entire Thankyou Food & Bodycare range into Coles and Woolworths, to the recent launch of their ‘No Small Plan’ in the middle of last year’s pandemic!

There are many lessons we could share working with the team, but one stands above all …

The Thankyou lesson

Mistakes make us stronger

SMK

logo_smk_share_sq

SMK run multiple courses in multiple states, multiple times per year and each with multiple phases.

Over a single 12 month period, we guesstimated that we had handled around 3,000 pieces of content to support all of SMK’s activities online.

With this many pieces of creative, and multiple people involved in the delivery, mistakes were bound to happen…

The SMK lesson

The money is in the list

Kleenheat

3_White-1-1
kleenheat

There’s a saying in email marketing circles: “The money is in the list”.

We translated that lesson to the digital advertising space with WA disrupter brand, Kleenheat.

We spent years formulating a digital full funnel Performance Branding solution we call ACD. The key lies in investing not in impressions, CPMs or even CPAs – but in strategically building Audience lists.

The Kleenheat lesson

Invent your own Event

albumworks

aw camera

Not unlike a lot of businesses, albumworks has traffic peaks based on seasonal gifting periods.

The problem that we faced was that there was a very large gap between two particular seasonal periods that was proving challenging to bridge with regular promotions.

Solving this problem meant we had to think outside the box…

The albumworks lesson

Principles Cost

Patagonia

Patagonia-Logo-Square

When Patagonia approached us to help them with their digital ad strategy, we had questions.

Patagonia are famous for running a business whose objective is to Save the Planet.

Before even thinking about ads, we had to understand how to use advertising to meet both their sales and environmental goals – all the while, not alienating audiences with what could be perceived to be conflicting messaging.

The Patagonia Lesson

Compounding Community

Orbitkey

orbitkey

The Orbitkey brand launched from the crowd-funding community back in 2013.

Rather than moving on from this original backing of the brand, for every key product launch Orbitkey has returned to crowd-funding to kickstart their new projects.

This is not just about clever marketing, but from a focus on community first. Often making design and colour way changes on feedback. Each new launch seems to be breaking new records!

The Orbitkey lesson

Run your 
own race

Sitting Pretty

Taryn & Logan are that rare breed of human who know how to stay in their own lane.

They measure their success against their own metrics.

This includes the instruction to not compete against competitors on branded search terms. For an agency who think in systems, this constraint presented a unique challenge and a series of fresh learnings on how to grow a brand.

The Sitting Pretty lesson

Mix Business with Friendship

Le Rose

3_White-1-3 (2)
Le Rose 2

Breaking all the rules on family & friends in business.

Helen & Kristy have harnessed the power of their friendship to be the heart of their brand. This connection behind the scenes flows through into their product design and marketing.

Full of generosity and love, it’s no surprise that Brides make Le Rose a special part of their big day.

The Le Rose lesson

Go far together

Google & Facebook

logos-fbgoogle

There’s a famous African proverb that says: “If you want to go fast, go alone. But if you want to go far, go together”.

We’ve been a Google Partner agency since inception, but everything changed in 2016 when Google invested in us through their new Premier Partners program and Facebook followed suit a few years later with their Marketing Partners PRO program.

The Google & Facebook lesson

Give back

Data Runs Deep

DRD

For a specialist Analytics agency, Data Runs Deep are surprisingly ‘human’ in all their dealings.

We’ve been fortunate to have journeyed with Data Runs Deep over the years and if there’s one thing we notice (outside of their Analytics expertise), its that they regularly give back to industry.

Since meeting Intentional in 2013, we didn’t recommend any other advertising consultancy to our clients. They care about the technology, they care about their people, they care about the community… but most of all they care about performance. Thank you to Intentional for all the great work down the years!

We overestimate what we can do in one year
but underestimate what we can do in ten.

First, ten.

https://www.high-endrolex.com/30

This, in two words, is the secret of new marketing.

Find ten people.

Ten people who trust you/respect you/need you/listen to you.

Those ten people need what you have to sell, or want it.

And if they love it, you win. If they love it, they’ll each find you ten more people (or a hundred or a thousand or, perhaps, just three). Repeat.

If they don’t love it, you need a new product. Start over.

Your idea spreads. Your business grows. Not as fast as you want, but faster than you could ever imagine.

You can no longer market to the anonymous masses. They’re not anonymous and they’re not masses. You can only market to people who are willing participants. Like this group of ten.

3 years from now, this advice will be so common as to be boring. Today, it’s almost certainly the opposite of what you’re doing.

Maria has been a friend of Intentional’s 
for almost our entire ten years.

She is one of a handful of typographers & letterers in Melbourne, collaborating on brand identity with Nike, McCann, Charlie’s Cookies & The University of Melbourne amongst others.

Working across Melbourne & Barcelona for over 19 years, she has been a keynote speaker at design events in Australia and overseas for Adobe, Type Paris, Typism and The Design Conference.

She is perhaps most well known for her ‘Shit series’ but most proud of her work on her own custom typeface called ‘Green Fairy’.
