AGS to Launch Consumer Ad Campaign
The aim of the campaign is not only to raise awareness about the American Gem Society but also to drive consumers to its “Find a Jeweler” website feature.
Las Vegas--The American Gem Society is launching a new consumer-facing advertising campaign that aims to increase awareness of the organization and its membership.
Print and digital campaign ads also will run in and on The Knot throughout 2016.
The aim of the ads, the AGS said, is not only to increase awareness of the organization but to drive consumers to the “Find a Jeweler” feature on the AGS website.
To achieve this, the AGS is releasing two different ads: “Buy it with Confidence,” aimed at male consumers, and “Love What You See. And What You Can’t,” targeting females.
To increase the campaign’s reach, the AGS will promote its messaging on social media outlets, the AGS blog and websites, and in targeted member email blasts, among other outlets. A custom hashtag--#BuyWithConfidenceAGS--also is associated with the initiative, and counter cards of the ads will be made available for member retailers to display in-store.
In addition, the ads also will promote AGS Laboratories.
“With the support of our retail members in-store and in their social media outlets, this fully integrated campaign is designed to make a powerful impact,” said AGS and AGS Laboratories CEO Ruth Batson. “Promoting consumer confidence and the ethics of the reputable jewelers that make up the AGS membership is critical to attracting younger consumers and ensuring the future strength of our industry.”
