Aussie Invader appoints Bam Creative to launch new interactive platform and digital campaign
Aussie Invader 5R appointed Perth-based creative digital marketing agency Bam Creative to create an interactive platform and campaign for their crowdfunding initiative, Supersonic Selfie. The Aussie Invader land speed record project led by Rosco McGlashan, launched the campaign as a way for enthusiasts around the world to support the team’s attempt to break the World Land Speed Record in 2016.
The Supersonic Selfie crowdfunding website will allow supporters to upload a selfie from their phone, tablet or device for as little as AU$20, in exchange for their photo to be vinyl wrapped on to the car. Bam Creative launched the website this week.
"We are honoured to help Rosco and the Aussie Invader team raise the funds they need to create history,” said Bam Creative's digital account manager, Urvin Seeburuth. “There have been more people to walk on the moon than have driven a car at 650mph. The success of this project will mark one of the greatest engineering achievements of our generation and those to come.”
Bam Creative's studio manager and director, Patima Tantiprasut, said the project is an exciting opportunity to embrace the intersection of technology, social media and community.
“In an age where 53% of Australians access the Internet more than five times a day, it’s the perfect landscape for an online campaign,” Tantiprasut said. “Also, who doesn’t love a good selfie?"
After the launch of the Supersonic Selfie website, Seeburuth and the Bam Creative team will continue to implement their digital strategy through a strategic multi-platform campaign, helping the Aussie Invader team achieve their goal of raising significant funds to get to the start line in late 2016 and hopefully bring the World Land Speed Record to Australia for the first time in history.

While approaching a customer in a shop and asking what you can help them with is Retail 101, how many of us actually enjoy being approached? Generally, you have to give the forced, fake smile and say, “Just browsing, thanks,” while screaming on the inside, “just leave me alone!” Maybe it’s just me?
Not a day passes by in the life of business executives where digital innovation or the prospect of disruption is not front of mind. This in turn, drives an unrelenting flow of questioning, discussion and strategy papers.
Unless you’ve been marketing under a rock, you’ll probably have questioned whether your media agencies are offering you transparency.
In Episode 11 of this new podcast series, BrandHook MD, Pip Stocks, talks with Australia Post chief innovation officer and former CMO, Greg Sutherland, about how brand reputation today is built on what customers say, why that’s reflective of experience, and what AusPost is doing to tackle that.
