Wellington to the World

Wellington Airport

In preparation for a new phase of growth and deeper community connection, TAG The Agency partnered with Wellington Airport to develop a digital strategy that repositioned the airport as more than a point of departure and arrival. Our approach reframed the airport as the place where adventures begin – a “mini city” that reflects the personality, culture, and pride of Wellington, while connecting the region to the world. We built a content system designed to celebrate the people of the airport, the wider Wellington community, and the destinations made possible from the Capital, balancing inspiring storytelling with practical updates and service-focused communication. Promotions and campaign activity were structured to feel native and intentional, protecting the integrity of the channels by keeping the primary focus on community, experience, and culture. The strategy also established a consistent tone: informative, respectful, and human, with a light touch of humour that felt uniquely Wellington. The outcome was a clear, scalable framework that aligned content, engagement, and campaign activity into one cohesive story – proudly Wellington, and confidently connected to the world.

Growing Communities Before It Was Cool

Pepsi

TAG was an early pioneer of Facebook apps, building like-gated competition experiences back when Facebook let you like a page before you could enter, and before “engagement” became a buzzword. Led by founder Tom Reidy, who’s been around since the early days of Facebook, Twitter, and yes, even Myspace (we survived), TAG created a wide range of Facebook app campaigns that turned participation into community growth. Working with brands such as Pepsi, TAG delivered campaigns across sport and culture, from cricket to football and everything in between, using custom-built apps to drive engagement, reward fans, and build meaningful audiences at scale.
