MPV Advertising in QLD & Other Australian Regions in Progress



What started out as a mere project to succour community groups in the local area to raise money, gave birth to a platform of fundraising for these lot while bargaining exceptional value to resident businesses and generating a non-printable product . This has been and is the journey of My Phone Vouchers. Yet, MPV have only touched the icing of the cake of their upright venture. They set on further in their goal through several forms of advertisements specifically coupon advertising in Cairns, voucher advertising in Brisbane, advertising in QLD, docket advertising in Sunshine Coast, and discount vouchers in Toowoomba.

In Cairns Coupons, an accessible savings directory for shopping, services and entertainment, MPV advertises its campaign of fundraising. MPV uses the edge of the directory to contact its subscribers and visitors. Also, it provides a full profile page with photos and information for its customers. The concept of coupon advertising envisions market exposure of businesses (from neophytes to top dogs), and products and services disclosure as a means of promotion and fund increase.
 
In Brisbane, 20, 000 kaleidoscopic lustrous brochures of businesses with discount proposals like MPV are dispatched to 20,000 locals in its 10 suburbs for three months. The catch here is that a lone business is introduced per environ, therefore, the venture can capitalize on that place.  Statistics discerned a 1% response is equivalent to 200 extra customers as 5% is to 500 extra customers.

Queensland Advertising, a full service national advertising agency, guides MPV along with its media strategy and buying, marketing and PR specialization.  They have clients in Brisbane, Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth as well.  Another organization, Shop a Docket, poses great coupons and vouchers for hundreds of restaurants, pizza discounts, movies, accommodation, cars, retail stores, child minding, tradesman hiring, driving lessons, and student tutoring.

MPV also has discount vouchers in Toowoomba alongside travel coupons for the likes of New Zealand Cruise, 11-Day Tour Flight around China, Jenolan Caves: Lodge Stay, Great Ocean Road: Coach Tour, 16 day luxury package in Vietnam, and Currumbin Beach for four. There are also tickets for spa packages and body massages as well as wellness vouchers such as Shellac Manicure, Shiseido Hair Straightening, Keratin Hair Smoothing Treatment, Full Set Eyelash Extensions, and Hair Removal sessions.

These facets, however, have not been sufficient to impede the fluctuation in the ad spend forecast of ZenithOptimedia Ad spend Forecasts to only 1.5% growth. According to the source, the Australian dollar has been compressing commodity prices and weakening the conditions in international markets dampening the demand from global advertisers. Retail is belligerent and is holding firm as Australia’s largest advertising category – with finance, real estate, food, government and cosmetics which are the other key sectors dwindling.

Consequently, ad groups like MPV are doubling their efforts in promotion and advertisements. This simple scheme’s excursion has a long way to go from fundraising advertisements (coupons and vouchers) to changing people’s lives.
