Art-Acquire has an interesting proposition. If you wish to buy modern and contemporary art works, but are too time-poor to visit the exhibitions and workshops a serious art habit entails, the Dutch firm's consultants will quiz you on your tastes and inclinations, then produce a narrowed-down range of works to choose from — a personalised catalogue.

When Art-Acquire decided to ramp up its business with a break into the Mid-East market, they chose publiceye media to devise a three-month publicity campaign for an exhibition in Dubai in May 2007. The media project was a stunning success, with print, internet, TV and radio exposure beyond all expectation. We calculate that the print space alone devoted to the Art-Acquire show would have cost almost €70,000 to buy as ad space. Some achievement!

South Coast Community Television applied for a digital broadcast licence in 2000. Concerned at delays by the regulator, SCTV brought us in to create a short-term press campaign late in 2001 and to oversee all communications.

The campaign was very successful, achieving important coverage both in print and broadcast media, and on significant discussion boards monitored by ComReg, such as boards.ie. RTE radio and TV, Irish Independent, Irish Times, Irish Examiner, Business & Finance and Sunday Tribune gave the story its fullest coverage. SCTV was finally awarded a licence to broadcast digital terrestrial TV in the Munster region, covering over 300,000 households, in 2004.
