Surrey, B.C: Coast Capital Savings has won a 2018 Achievement in Marketing Excellence (AIME) Award for its fall 2017 What does financial well-being mean to you campaign.
The campaign, infused with Coast Capital’s infamous irreverent personality, ran across both traditional and digital platforms over the course of 12 weeks. Featuring Canadians from all walks of life, the campaign inspired audiences to think about their personal definition of financial well-being and offered a few giggles to boot.
