Campaign Goals & Results

Punch was commissioned by Qype to raise the brand's profile in the consumer space, whilst also ensuring that local business customers around the UK are aware of it's premium listings offering and the brand is also positioned positively within the new media trade press.

Within days of commencing the project, the Punch team achieved blanket trade media coverage regarding the arrival of Qype's new CEO, which was immediately followed by a consumer event achieving heavyweight consumer press coverage for the Qype Radar iPhone app. The Punch team has also brokered a number of potentially high value business development relationships for the Qype team.
