AUCKLAND, Monday: Grey Lynn-based indie True has created a campaign for ASB GetWise, following a grad’s successful start-up business – the second chapter of the bank’s financial literacy advertising campaign.
More than 890,000 kids across the country have gone through ASB’s GetWise financial literacy programme, equipping them with savings advice to help them be more cash clever.
Armed with knowledge from ASB GetWise and learnings from her first business, Hana and her trusty wing man Clever Kash decide to branch out, launching their second business Smiles, selling oranges at local rugby clubs. On her opening weekend her first customers include a few All Blacks.
ASB marketing general manager Shane Evans says the Smiles campaign ties in the bank’s focus on financial literacy as well as celebrating its sponsorship of the All Blacks, during a big year for rugby worldwide.
“We all know what it’s like to forget oranges for our kids’ game, and Hana like any good businessperson, saw this gap in the market.”
“We wanted to draw on a real Kiwi tradition – oranges at half time,” Evans said. “We all know what it’s like to have forgotten the oranges for our kids’ rugby game, and Hana like any good business person, saw this gap in the market.”
True ECD Tim Huse said: “It’s been fun to welcome back New Zealand’s most charming little entrepreneur and her sidekick, Clever Kash.
“We’ve seen her take the lessons and confidence from ASB’s GetWise programme, and use it to corner the market in sticks at the local dog park. But now her latest venture is getting the thumbs-up, and a lot of smiles, from her customers – including the All Blacks.”
“The ASB GetWise programme has been running for more than 10 – this latest version runs through until the beginning of November.
