Outcome: Aer Lingus achieved a 14% uplift in brand consideration and a 10% increase in purchase intent by leveraging TAM Ireland’s strategy and Amplified Intelligence’s attention metrics for emotionally resonant advertising.

The Challenge: Building Emotional Resonance in a Crowded Market

Aer Lingus sought to create a campaign that didn’t just raise awareness but truly resonate with audiences on an emotional level. In a competitive market, the brand needed to ensure their creative cut through the noise, building brand love while delivering measurable outcomes.

TAM Ireland, known for their expertise in television advertising, identified an opportunity to help Aer Lingus optimise their campaign by incorporating advanced attention metrics. Recognising the importance of actionable insights, TAM Ireland introduced Amplified Intelligence to the project, bringing a new layer of measurement and strategic value to the campaign.

 

The Approach: Attention and Emotion Driving Campaign Success

With TAM Ireland’s guidance, Aer Lingus partnered with Amplified Intelligence to elevate their television campaign by focusing on both active attention and emotional resonance. The goal was to align the creative with what mattered most – capturing audience attention and driving a meaningful connection to the brand.

Television was selected as the primary channel for its unparalleled ability to deliver attention at scale. Amplified’s world-leading attention data capture tool recorded precise human engagement from live TV, providing actionable insights that were seamlessly integrated into the campaign execution to optimise performance and drive stronger outcomes.
