Role

Retained Communications Consultant

AIA

The Challenge

Many markets, many spokespeople, one message

AIA needed help forming and delivering professional-grade marketing communications that held to their brand positioning. They needed an adviser who could devise key messages and get them in front of the public and the media. The work ran from digital assets to creative and media releases, and later extended to speech-writing for in-country and regional CEOs - keeping everything professional and on-brand.

The Solution

One aim running through everything

Worked as a retained consultant, with one aim running through everything: position AIA as a leader in promoting healthy lifestyles.

Pillar 1

Core Messaging

Ensured all messaging communicated and sat underneath AIA's brand promise of healthier, longer, better lives. That meant defining how each media release or message was articulated to the public and ensured a professional, engaging tone.

Pillar 2

Media and Partnerships

Put the messaging to work through media releases and communicated partner activity, including Tottenham Hotspur Football Club and AIA Global Ambassador David Beckham. The 100 Football Playing Fields Initiative built sports facilities in 100 schools across Cambodia. The Centennial Baton run marked AIA’s hundred years. Both gave the health message something concrete to attach to.

Pillar 3

Executive Communications

Assigned speech-writing for in-country and regional CEOs, writing for public events and keeping senior leaders on-message regardless of market or audience.

AIA Centennial 100 Years activation in Cambodia

The AIA Centennial activation in Cambodia - one of the live events the messaging had to carry.

The work reached thousands across digital, media, and live events, and covered health screenings, awareness booths, and lifestyle activities on the ground in Cambodia.
