Clems Unveils New Brand Platfrom For HCF

HCF has launched a new brand platform, “We Put Our Money Where Our Members Are”, in new work from Clemenger BBDO that highlights the values and unique benefits HCF offers as Australia’s largest not-for-profit health fund.

As households face increasing cost of living pressures, the campaign shows Australians that HCF is not their typical health fund—choosing to provide great value health cover and support to members over profits to shareholders.

At the centre of the campaign is a not-so-fancy promotion–instead of running a big, expensive giveaway to woo new customers, HCF is offering new members free things from around their office – from pet rocks to odd socks and everything in between.

A documentary-style hero film follows HCF employees as they scour their desks for things they can give away to entice new customers, while 18 other films extend the promotion across television and social, alongside a national outdoor buy.

The tongue-in-cheek campaign continues to point-of-sale, with HCF giving away their not-so-fancy ‘gifts’ to new customers in branches across Australia as well as ‘PDF gifts’ for those who sign up online.

Tristan Graham, Executive Creative Director at Clemenger BBDO, “The idea for this campaign was born during a casual call we were having with a few of our clients. It’s proof that collaboration really is key to creating brave, category-challenging work.”

HCF is putting the money saved back into further member benefits, including the creation of a new HCF Women’s Health Hub and Victor Chang heart screening activations–underscoring their commitment to providing quality preventative health services to their members.

Says Tatiana Papavero, Head of Advertising and Operations at HCF, “The new platform is a true reflection of the unique value HCF offers our customers. The campaign itself allows us to connect with people in a humorous way, and poke fun at ourselves and our industry.”

The campaign will run across TV, radio, OLV, OOH, social, digital, and native placements.
