M&S Travel Money Hits the Beach in New Advertising Campaign
(PRWEB) July 13, 2008 -- M&S Travel Money gets under the spotlight this summer, with a major advertising campaign, starring Myleene Klass.
Set to 'Bamboleo' by the Gypsy Kings, with Mariella Frostrup providing the voiceover, the ad shows Myleene on the busy journey of preparation for her holiday. Viewers see her frantically packing, (including those much-admired bikinis) and visiting the beauty salon for essential last-minute holiday treatments. By contrast, she calmly picks up her foreign currency at her local M&S Bureau de Change (http://www6.marksandspencer.com/pages/default.asp?PageID=Home&Product=TM ) and finally relaxes on the beach with a cocktail.
The 30-second ad created by RKCR/Y&R, shows that buying travel money (http://www6.marksandspencer.com/pages/default.asp?PageID=Home&Product=TM ) at M&S is one holiday preparation that's stress-free, as it can be picked up with other last-minute holiday essentials at M&S.
Steve Sharp, Executive Director of Marketing at M&S, said: "Myleene is the perfect choice for this ad. Not only is she financially savvy, she is also a busy young mum, who simply doesn't have enough hours in her day, so appreciates the convenience of being able to pick up her currency at M&S. She also looks fantastic in her M&S bikini of course."
The campaign will air until 20th July. The ad and a 'behind the scenes' film, including an interview with Myleene, can be viewed on the M&S Money website at www.marksandspencer.com/money
The ad is supported by a fully integrated marketing campaign including instore promotion and posters on M&S lorries. Digital advertising includes banners on a range of travel websites such as tripadviser.com and lastminute.com where visitors can get a 'live' currency conversion. M&S Travel Money (http://www6.marksandspencer.com/pages/default.asp?PageID=Home&Product=TM ) website also features a travel money bureau locator and a 'live' currency converter (http://www6.marksandspencer.com/pages/default.asp?PageID=Home&Product=TM ).
M&S Travel Money offers a wide range of currencies at competitive exchange rates, commission-free at in-store Bureaux de Change, online and by telephone. Now M&S is making it even easier for holidaymakers to get their travel money with the launch of cash machines which dispense both euros and dollars in selected M&S stores.
M&S Travel Money can be ordered and purchased from bureaux de change in over 100 M&S stores and by telephone.
