AM+A were contracted to help Camplify, an Australian based campervan and motorhome sharing platform, expand into the UK market and tap into the domestic tourism surge. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many Brits were unable to travel abroad for much of 2021, leading to a ‘summer of staycations’ and a big opportunity for Camplify to establish themselves in this market.
- Generate publicity in national newspapers and major online travel publications, in addition to personal finance magazines
- Focus on the story of Camplify’s rapid growth, owners turning their passion into a new form of income, in addition to the ease of use for consumers
- Profile current Camplify owners and their success, which in turn would encourage other owners to list their van on the platform
- Centre messaging on the freedom Camplify and campervanning offers, striking a chord with people’s desire to explore after nearly two years in and out of lockdowns
- Create pitches that tapped into current events and trends, positioning Camplify as the perfect way to experience them (e.g. the best way to watch the EUROs on holiday, best places in the UK to watch the Super Moon)
- Organise press trips for media to experience Camplify for themselves

- AM+A organised multiple press trips including for the Mail on Sunday and the Sunday Telegraph
