Fast Track Reads

Client

Blinkist

Brief

To create a campaign that will drive conversion and awareness for Blinkist, using only Moove Media’s OOH platforms.

Problem

Based on the global average, Singaporeans aren’t reading enough.

Insight

Despite Singaporeans not reading enough, recent studies have shown a significant increase in e-loans at public libraries. This shows that Singaporeans are willing to read but do not have enough time, and e-loans allow them to read on-the-go.

 

 

The Client

Blinkist is looking to penetrate the south-east asian market. Blinkist is an app that condenses nonfiction books into bitesized 15 minute packages. A team of expert analysts and editors summarise these books into key-takeaways and insights.

 

The Idea

To address Singaporeans’ issue that they have no time to read, this campaign targets users when they have time on their hands — whilst travelling on public transport. Site-specific ads will showcase how users can make better use of their time spent commuting to get smarter, faster with Blinkist.

 

 

Mechanics

The ads will allow users to experience what Blinkist offers. Simply by scanning the QR code, they will be:

  • Directed to a microsite, where they can listen to or read the promoted title.

  • Be able to start a 1-week free trial (Blinkist’s current promotion) with just one click.
