The insight ws that people who drink zero alcohol products are interested in being seen as one of the crowd, drinking beer, but to also maintain judgement when it counts. Our campaign focussed on the unimpaired judgement that goes with an ultra light beer compared with a night out on full strength beer. Sales improved strongly during and after the campaign and the agency received a “Could be a Caxton” nomination for excellence in newspaper advertising. --- ###### [WHITE RIBBON ACCREDITATION](https://www.showpony.com.au/news/white-ribbon-accreditation) [![](https://www.showpony.com.au/hubfs/images13.jpg) WHITE RIBBON ACCREDITATION October 27, 2024](https://www.showpony.com.au/news/white-ribbon-accreditation) [Showpony has gained White Ribbon accreditation.](https://www.showpony.com.au/news/white-ribbon-accreditation)[Read More](https://www.showpony.com.au/news/white-ribbon-accreditation) ###### [AADC AWARDS](https://www.showpony.com.au/news/aadc-awards) [![](https://www.showpony.com.au/hubfs/aadc-awards-2x.jpg) AADC AWARDS October 27, 2024](https://www.showpony.com.au/news/aadc-awards) [South Australian creative community rallies for sold-out 47th Annual AADC Awards, honouring local excellence and emerging talent.](https://www.showpony.com.au/news/aadc-awards)[Read More](https://www.showpony.com.au/news/aadc-awards) ###### [A Year in Tasmania](https://www.showpony.com.au/news/a-year-in-tasmania) [![](https://www.showpony.com.au/hubfs/SP_BRAND_TEMPLATE_EDM_AUG24_V1.jpg) A Year in Tasmania August 28, 2024](https://www.showpony.com.au/news/a-year-in-tasmania) [WE CAME DOWN FOR ADVERTISING…AND FOOD…AND WHISKY…](https://www.showpony.com.au/news/a-year-in-tasmania)[Read More](https://www.showpony.com.au/news/a-year-in-tasmania) ###### [National campaign to prevent vet suicide via Showpony](https://www.showpony.com.au/news/national-campaign-to-prevent-vet-suicide-via-showpony) [![](https://www.showpony.com.au/hubfs/sophies-legacy.jpeg) National campaign to prevent vet suicide via Showpony August 8, 2024](https://www.showpony.com.au/news/national-campaign-to-prevent-vet-suicide-via-showpony) [Veterinarians are four times more likely to die by suicide than the average person.
