Marketing and Media work
Marketing
The marketing of the 26th International Hansa Convention 2006 was developed in far pre-position of this event by a widely developed media-concept. The marketing was accompanied by numerous announcements and a broad media-concept (press, advertisements, stoppers...) at various media in the town of Osnabrück and its region.

Oct. 2005 Hansa-Countdown
The Hansa-Countdown starts: On an illuminated tablet the remaining days to the opening of the Hansa Convention will be counted backwards. The tablet is presented at different places in the city centre. The tablet is provided with the theme poster of the Hansa Convention and labelled with the inscription “From today there will be only xxx days to the Hansa Convention from June 15th – 18th in Osnabrück”.
March 2006 Media partners/Sponsoring
Various media partners/sponsors (NordLB, NOZ, Sparkasse, Stadtblatt) advertised the Hansa Convention in print, trailers and features. The coverage of the print media is available at the Department of Press of the city of Osnabrück.
May 2006 Hansa-cog-model
The central motive of the Hansa poster – a cog – was rebuilt in a smaller scale (2x6 m). This model was used for an advertisement “road tour” through the greater Osnabrück and several cities in Lower Saxony and Westfalia of several days’ duration. The cog was presented during the Hansa Convention at the Hansa Market.
After the Hansa Convention the cog underwent reconstruction and is now used as a plaything at Adolf-Reichwein-Platz in the centre of the city. Since September the cog has been placed there at a newly beachlike designed surrounding and is since then a popular venue for children and their parents.
