Advertising Campaign
CANTERRA SEEDS launched a company-wide initiative to improve farmer perception of the company in every interaction, from advertising to invoicing. Our firm was tasked with communicating the company’s values and building a positive brand experience while driving sales across all products lines and increasing market share in Western Canada.

The Strategy
The goal of the campaign was to drive sales across all product lines by communicating the key selling propositions of seed, while establishing an emotional connection and empathetic relationship with our farmer customers.
Farming is a hands-on profession and the campaigns creative approach focused on hands at work, a highly relatable image that invited the audience into the scene. Background images were black and white to evoke a little nostalgia, overlayed by a yellow mask to bring the company brand and message into focus.
Creative was executed through a variety of media, with print publications in Western Canada being the primary focus of this strategy. Radio advertisements and YouTube commercials complemented and built on the storyline.
