We know how to use the latest tools (and some that have been around a while) to create campaigns that break through and capture people’s attention. Great creative is definitely an important part of it, but to make great creative work, you need it to be aligned with great media strategy and delivery.

Hemisphere Media are experts in delivering impactful results across every media channel, and we’re great at connecting channels together to make things even more effective. We use Ambidextrous Thinking — data and intuition — to develop paid media approaches that seamlessly integrate with creative solutions to resonate with New Zealand (and offshore) audiences.

Understanding Ambidextrous Thinking

Ambidextrous thinking is the science and art of leveraging analytical and intuitive modes of thought —allowing us to craft innovative strategies while staying grounded in data-driven insights. We fuse the logical left hemisphere and the creative right hemisphere to generate powerful advertising campaigns.

Harnessing the power of data

Data has become an invaluable resource for advertisers. It provides significant insights into consumer behaviour, preferences, and market trends. We use data to identify the most effective channels, how to connect with priority audiences, and the best times and contexts to reach and engage with them. This data-driven approach ensures that our media strategies are precise, targeted, and efficient.

Embracing intuition and creativity

While data is an essential component of media planning, intuition and creativity are equally important. Ambidextrous thinking allows us to go beyond raw numbers and use behavioural cues to tap into the heartbeat of the audience. It enables us to develop creative media solutions that evoke a genuine connection, capturing the minds and hearts of consumers.

Finding the balance

The true power of ambidextrous thinking lies in striking a harmonious balance between data and creativity. It’s not a battle between left and right brain thinking but a synergistic collaboration.

At Hemisphere Media, we know that relying too heavily on one aspect can lead to ineffective campaigns. By finding the sweet spot between data-backed insights and intuitive planning, we create impactful media strategies that deliver tangible results.

Knowing Aotearoa

Understanding the unique characteristics of the people of Aotearoa is crucial for effective media planning and buying. We’re deeply rooted in New Zealand’s culture; we take pride in our ability to weave local insights into our strategies. When we need insights from the community, we tap into our internal Culture Club — representing Māori, Pacific, Asian, Tauiwi, Rainbow and other communities — as well as Te Huihui o Te Kakau.

Our team’s expertise and connection to communities enables us to craft campaigns that resonate authentically with Kiwis. We embrace cultural diversity, life experience and regional nuances.
