Integrated marketing ensures that your strategy is faithfully and consistently applied in-market, and it focuses on more than just your messaging across communication channels. This award is offered to those companies that can demonstrate the application of the marketing strategy through every activity undertaken by the brand. While communications are of course important, the judges will also look at other components of the marketing mix and how they have been developed to successfully deliver your strategic consistency. The increased scope and complexity of today’s marketing environment makes the mastery of this discipline all the more vital. This award is aimed at businesses that have deployed comprehensive and holistic approaches, whereby multiple marketing tools and channels are leveraged strategically and in unison to deliver exceptional business growth.

Square

Marshall Kingston

Winner

Following a successful launch in Ireland, Square set out to expand its services, promoting economic empowerment to the 2.65 million SME’s in Spain. However, the landscape in Spain was vastly different to Square’s other markets, with 87% of in-person transactions being cash based. To penetrate this market, Square not only needed to build awareness of the ecosystem of products on offer, but also educate Spanish businesses on the benefits of utilising these products over their existing systems. Square tackled this with a combination of highimpact advertising, online campaigns, and putting existing Square Sellers front and centre of the marketing efforts.

Brian Curtin

Finalist

WHOOP is a wearable fitness and health coach that provides personalised, actionable insights via a wrist wearable and companion app. Created in Boston in 2012 the brand’s marketing had traditionally skewed towards the US, and because of this, WHOOP wasn’t resonating with global consumers.

WHOOP International was set up in Dublin in 2021, tasked with expanding the brand internationally. In 2022 the team executed a unique campaign around the Giro d’Italia cycling tour, and results exceeded expectations. Not only did WHOOP unlock international markets, but from a team perspective it was successful, as Global Marketing is now led from Ireland.
