PRLog (Press Release) - Sep. 5, 2012 - BrocklebankPenn has been appointed by Tech21 to mastermind a major brand launch in the UK, US, Canada and Europe. Tech21 designs, manufactures and supplies highly innovative, impact-resistant cases for mobile devices such as phones, tablets and laptops. The agency is retained to develop every aspect of the Tech21 brand including a new brand identity and value proposition. A fully integrated creative campaign has been developed, covering digital consumer advertising, point of purchase, including a new e commerce website, and product packaging.  Also included within the brief is a social media campaign that will feature videos of Impactology™ in action, demonstrating the key benefits of the product.

Based on the science of Impactology™, a concept developed by BrocklebankPenn and now trademarked to Tech21, the new product range will be available online from the Tech21 Impactology™ website and from retailers including Apple, T-Mobile, Best Buy, John Lewis and Carphone Warehouse. The new brand had its global debut on 8–10 May at CTIA International Wireless Expo, New Orleans, Louisiana, USA.

Jason Roberts, CEO and Founder of Tech21, commented, “We were looking for an agency that could help us develop a strategy to take the Tech21 brand forward into both new market segments and new geographic markets. BrocklebankPenn has helped us to research the market, identify the key elements that make our offering compelling, and provide a unique position for our products with Impactology™.”

Roberts continued, “We are passionate about our products and wanted this to shine through in our marketing, advertising and promotional campaigns. BrocklebankPenn has been instrumental in helping us to achieve this.”

Craig Penn, Founder & Director of Strategy & Planning at BrocklebankPenn commented, “We are delighted to have been able to work with Jason and the team at Tech21 on this major rebranding and market development exercise. Tech21 previously had a very technical proposition, and we have maximised this technical strength and highlighted the benefits to the consumer. In doing so, we believe that Tech21 will build its brand personality to appeal to a wider cross-section of the market, both local and global.”
