Plymouth Rock | July 20, 2022 | Read time : 08:00 min

Plymouth Rock Assurance today announced the official launch of its latest multi-channel ad campaign titled, “The Bostonians.” Assembling a cast of characters from across the Boston sports world, the new creative positions Plymouth Rock as the go-to insurance provider for Boston sports fans.

“Plymouth Rock was founded with the idea to offer more than just insurance to our policyholders,” said Ethan Tarby, Chief Marketing Officer, Plymouth Rock Assurance Corporation.

“Plymouth Rock was founded with the idea to offer more than just insurance to our policyholders,” said Ethan Tarby, Chief Marketing Officer, Plymouth Rock Assurance Corporation. “Today that includes a number of innovative product offerings, including our sports programs, which provide insurance benefits and unique access to our favorite sports teams. We think ‘The Bostonians’ campaign is a fun way to bring together the sports and insurance worlds – hopefully with a few laughs along the way.”

“The Bostonians” campaign was created in partnership with Plymouth Rock’s lead creative agency, HeyLetsGo. Ads feature a fun cast of characters living together under one roof, all with two things in common — a relentless love for the Patriots, Red Sox and Bruins and an appreciation for Plymouth Rock insurance and their unique fan perks.

This big, happy Boston sports family includes mascots Wally, Pat Patriot and Blades, Bruins announcer Jack Edwards, the Red Sox groundskeeper, the Bruins ice cleaner, a Patriots end zone Militia Man, a Patriots cheerleader, the beloved sister from Lawrence and their nosy next-door neighbor.

The new work features seven 30-second spots styled after 80s and 90s sitcoms and even includes its own theme song. Ads will air across cable, digital and social channels. Videos can be viewed on plymouthrock.com/TheBostonians and on Plymouth Rock’s YouTube channel.

“Our goal for this campaign was to show how Plymouth Rock offers insurance solutions that are tailor-made for Boston sports fans,” said Tim Cawley, Chief Creative Officer at HeyLetsGo. “We want ‘The Bostonians’ to be more than just ads about Plymouth Rock’s great sports perks.”

AppLovin Corporation (NASDAQ: APP) (“AppLovin”), a leading marketing platform, is bringing performance-based buying to connected TV (CTV) within its powerful mobile user acquisition platform, AppDiscovery. App marketers can now tap into massive CTV supply across hundreds of free ad-supported streaming TV (FAST) apps and 3,000+ channels from a single source of access and only pay for installs. CTV will be the fastest-growing medium this year, with ad spending surging 21% to reach more than $25 billion. With 93% of U.S. internet users today reachable by CTV, it’s a prime time for app marketers to add this channel to their marketing mix to reach audiences at scale and achieve their ROI goals. “We're excited to successfully bridge the gap between mobile marketing and CTV through a performance buying model,” said Idil Canal, General Manager of AdTech, AppLovin. “With AppLovin, marketers can easily test and rapidly scale CTV campaigns to acquire high-quality users by accessing a vast audience with targeted, relevant ads — all while prioritizing installs over impressions.” CTV advertising on AppDiscovery is seamless. Advertisers can run mobile and CTV ad campaigns, and even leverage AppLovin’s industry-leading in-house creative team for custom, high-performing CTV ads — all on the same platform.

We’re excited about the continued partnership and growth potential,” said Max Wang, Growth Marketing Manager at Kikoff.
