Spelling mostakes ruin your story
Therefore De Standaard launches the "Taalbijlagen", 5 inserts enclosed in De Standaard which should keep you safe from embarrassing spelling mistakes.
To promote the inserts we illustrated the impact of bad use of language in a radio commercial and two print ads.

The first DIY ad for De Standaard
We created the first do-it-yourself ad to announce a unique sticker album with the complete oeuvre of Wim Delvoye.
The sticker album was designed by Wim Delvoye and freely enclosed with De Standaard. Readers could collect the free stickers in the weekly edition of their newspaper and complete their album.

The Fine Art of Writing Copy
Our copywriter and direct mailing specialist Johan-Lou Verwimp came in second during “De Gouden Veer” ceremony 2010.
“De Gouden Veer” is a prestigious prize awarded to sublime writing. Johan-Lou received an honourable mention for ‘Black Music’, a direct mailing he created for De Standaard. The letter mixed the features of the newspaper with song titles of the free cd-box ‘Black Music’ the prospect received when he subscribed to the paper.

Advertising on bank statements
A scoop for De Standaard: advertising on bank statements.
To communicate the new editorial series “Geld maakt gelukkig” (Money makes people happy), De Standaard transferred 1 Euro to the bank account of a selection of 3000 loyal subscribers, with the cryptic message: “Money makes you happy, now in De Standaard”.
A direct mailing for 1 Euro, how interesting is that?

De Standaard Congokrant
On 24 April De Standaard publishes the Congokrant, a unique theme newspaper on the relationship between Belgium and Congo. With each Congokrant you'll receive a free entrance ticket for the Africa Museum in Tervuren.
Several Belgian and Congolese public figures, such as Marc Reynebeau, Zap Mama and Ronny Mosuse, talk about the connection between both countries, after 50 years of Congolese independence.

Gold Effie for De Standaard
"After 2 minutes I knew that onverantwoord interessant would do a great job for De Standaard", says Peter Vandermeersch, editor in chief.
Finally, 5 years later, we convinced the Effie jury. But even more important: "Onverantwoord interessant became much more than a baseline, it is now an attitude for the editorial and the commercial staff."
Oh, and for those who missed the award ceremony, we also made a little movie to explain why the Belgian Effie champion VVL/BBDO did not win an Effie award this year.

De Standaard spoils summer camps
It will probably ruin their summer camp, given the fact that it is an irresponsibly interesting (onverantwoord interressant) newspaper, but De Standaard is doing it anyway …
They offer all Scout, KSA, Chiro and other camp leaders a free subscription during their summer camp. And what’s more, everyone that subscribes can win 15.000 euro worth of camping equipment and supplies. No doubt they will need it.

DE STANDAARD - KNOW WHO YOU’RE VOTING FOR
Exciting times for newspapers. The elections are but a month away and politicians try to win our sympathy in every conceivable way. But LDV tries to convince you that it should take more than a pretty face or a familiar name to win your vote.
De Standaard will provide you with that ‘more’. What does De Standaard have to offer? The newspaper and its website, but also voting tests, special files, exclusive interviews and even the first ever (!) political speed dating opportunity. So nobody will have to rely on coincidence to determine his vote. Everybody will know.
