WW appoints Connecting Plots as lead creative partner.

WW, the new Weight Watchers, has appointed Connecting Plots as their new lead creative partner.

The relationship coincides with the exciting announcement that one of Australia’s much-loved broadcast journalists, Samantha Armytage, has joined the WW family as its newest ambassador and whose weight loss and wellness journey is celebrated in their latest “It Works” campaign.

“We’re extremely proud and excited to announce our newest ambassador, Sam Armytage” says Managing Director of WW in Australia and New Zealand, Mathieu Le Renard. “Working with a digitally led creative partner in Connecting Plots has opened up our potential for sharing our inspiring stories at scale.”

With her demanding travel schedule and 3am wake up calls, Armytage found healthy habits slipping down in her list of priorities. Sam joined WW in January not only for support in reaching her weight loss goal, but also to develop healthy habits that could be sustained within her busy lifestyle. The campaign focuses on how WW has worked for Sam, having lost 10kg in 4 months she’s feeling stronger, healthier and more in control than ever.

“We’re thrilled to be working with WW, a prestigious brand with a strong purpose in helping create healthy habits that last. ” Says MD of Connecting Plots, Tom Phillips, who continues “we look forward to helping WW bring to life this purpose with the work we create together.”

The campaign is rolling out across digital, social and PR.

NESCAFE Blend 43 celebrates unlikely neighbours in new work via Connecting Plots.

To champion a progressive and modern Australian and build upon the newly launched brand platform “Raise a Cuppa”,  NESCAFE Blend 43 in partnership with Connecting Plots has launched a new social campaign, “#MeetMyNeighbour”.

#MeetMyNeighbour is the brand’s opportunity to convey its true authenticity, and goodwill for the community, by sharing the real life friendships and relationships created from being someone’s neighbour and the role ‘a cuppa’ plays in those relationships.

A series of films and supporting teasers, each telling the story of unlikely friends brought together by a shared fence, but whose relationships are of great value to each other.

One film tells the story of Bryce, a plumber in his 20’s and Robin, an immigrant in his 60’s who both became friends after an epic house party and another telling the story of Marty a private school boy from the city who moved his family to the country and ended up forging a bond with Bob, a neighbour who acts as a father figure in Marty’s life.

#meetmyneighbour is a collaboration between Connecting Plots and Facebook to generate fit-for-channel assets
