Location-based media firm JiWire is running its first UK-based campaign from Hiscox, which will see the insurer advertising to people via wi-fi networks on both mobile and laptop devices.
Designed to promote the insurer’s home and small business insurance offerings, customers will view the advertising before logging on to Wi-Fi in selected hotels, network rail stations, cafes, corporate locations and business hubs across the UK.
Planned and bought by Hiscox’s retained agency, Crayon Ci, the ‘captive portal’ advertising which is unique to JiWire, is displayed on the Wi-Fi login pages in BT Openzone venues within close proximity to Hiscox’s outdoor advertising.
The creative was designed by Flourish and facilitates a direct response channel by encouraging visitors to click through for an insurance quote.
US-based JiWire announced its expansion into Europe last month with the news that it has opened an office in London and is partnering with BT Openzone initially, to deliver targeted third-party advertising across more than 4,000 of its premium venue Wi-Fi hotspots located throughout the UK, including cafes, airports, leading hotels and wireless cities.
Commenting on the new campaign, Annabel Venner, Head of UK Marketing at Hiscox explains: “During the last year we have accelerated our online presence with targeted advertising campaigns such as this placement with JiWire. The advertising is innovative and gives Hiscox excellent share of voice, at a critical point, without interrupting the user experience.”
Peter Jones, Joint Managing Director of JiWire Europe, adds, “Hiscox is innovating within financial services advertising with the use of emerging technologies such as location-based advertising. JiWire will reach their On-The-Go customers after they pass posters, by enabling them to interact with the brand before they logon to Wi-Fi at the railway station or hotel. It’s a great medium to reach their target market and the channels combine to offer online fulfilment for their outdoor campaign.”
Robin Trust, Head of Media Planning at Crayon Ci, continues, “We have booked specific Wi-Fi locations with JiWire to ensure we are targeting the premium and small business audience, many of which are ‘On-The-Go’ travelling to and from meetings and accessing the internet via their laptop, mobile phones, iPads and other devices during the course of their day. We have booked a two month campaign period which will provide us with quality data for further campaign planning.”
JiWire has monetised Wi-Fi audiences in the US since 2003, serving approximately 20m unique users per month across 30,000 venue locations in the US.
The launch of JiWire Europe increases the available inventory that JiWire can offer its advertisers, which range from automotive and B2B companies to consumer electronics, finance, entertainment, and travel brands.

Most big time “successful” long term serial killres are very intelligent sociopaths – think of Ted Bundy, Gacy, the Green River Dude and hell even the despised and recently departed Clifford Olson exhibits a superior, if feral, intelligence compared to fall guy Robert Pickton. There is no way an organism of Robert’s limited mental skills could kill so many people over such an extended period of time without any of the others, relatives or associates, around the farm knowing something about what was going on, if not being actively involved, though clever enough to set Robert up as the patsy. Pickton as the “lone” killer in this fairytale is equivalent to the “lone crazed assassin” that is always INVENTED to explain the killling of Presidents and other leaders done by shadowy groups of conspirators who carefully set up a fall guy like Oswald or John Wilkes Booth. Heck, maybe Brutus too was merely a fall guy for a lot of other Roman “statesmen” with an axe to grind with Julius.BTW the “crazed lone assasin” that attempted to shoot Ronnie Raygun just happened to be a mentally unstable scion of another Kennebunkport (home of the Bu$h Outlaw clan) elite family. There was no love lost between the Raygunster and H.W. and it certainly would have hastened the dawn of the Bu$h Dynasty. The Bu$h family has the distinction of being one of the most criminal dynasties in American history from Walker and Nazis, to Dubya’s brother’s ripping off Savings and Loans to the ongoing business and almost family ties between the bin Ladens and other Arab potentates with no regard for anything but greed.

Is it possible that this Pickton Inquiry is notnihg more than a staged event at the taxpayers’ expense.The newsmedia carries reports from the inquiry everyday that it sits which not only takes time away from reporting on the goings on in provincial politics but is usually presented in such a fashion that is designed to dwarf the rest of the news. What better distraction than one that will most likely not implicate any current elected officials.My other thought is that the government would want this inquiry to be as expensive as possible. What better way to argue against a BC Rail inquiry than point out how expensive an inquiry of such magnitude would be considering what was spent on this one?Cam
