Northern Rail Brand Activation

Brand experience agency design, build and installation.

Brand activation for Northern Rail.

We designed, built, installed and ran an experiential brand activation for Northern Rail’s Traincation campaign. The campaign was targeted at shoppers on a busy Saturday in Leeds city centre.

Brand activation design & build

Working from a sketch and scamp by Northern Rail’s creative agency, we designed and built a mock ticket office. Using a lightweight frame clad in hi-resolution printed foamex we created a simple but effective branded asset. Easy to transport, easy to store and easy to set up this modular installation was positioned at the top of the escalators in Trinity Leeds.

Brand experience agency

As a brand experience agency we manage most elements of a brand activation. From advising on the initial concept to developing the idea into a practical, workable solution. With a small in-house team of creative and experienced people we’r bale to turn things around pretty quickly. From small installations to mid-size brand experiences we’re used to working with all kinds of budgets.

Booking event spaces

For this particular activation, Northern Rail wanted to deliver the activation at a busy Leeds city centre shopping mall. Knowing that Trinity Centre has a high weekend footfall we booked one of the most visible event spaces in the building. Situated at the top of the main escalators to the second floor, we carried out an overnight install to ensure the experience was ready to go when Trinity opened the next morning.

Testimonials

We partnered with iMP Sampling & Experiential for a summer campaign with one of our clients, and we couldn't be happier with the results. They executed a total of 42 in-store events nationwide, and their team's expertise in sampling and experiential marketing truly shone through. The staff were great at engaging with customers and helping us to achieve our goal of increasing footfall and participation at each event.

Account Director, CreativeRace

We worked with iMP for our event stand and staffing of the Ideal Home Show. David and the team were fantastic, our stand was incredible and we had so many compliments on it. The staff were great, they are really high energy and engaged our consumers at the stand. I would highly recommend if you are looking to run any sampling or experiential events for your brand.

Brand Manager, Snuggledown

We worked with iMP on stands for two different events and were thrilled with the quality of the items we received. The team executed our brief to a fantastic standard, working to a tight turnaround to deliver all materials required for both events, and were extremely supportive and quick to respond to any questions we had throughout the process. Thank you iMP for your work on this project to ensure we had incredible activations at both of our events!

Brand Manager, BOL Foods

David and team at iMP are the real deal - kind, personable, dependable, professional, and offer a craftsmanship that rivals any agency I've encountered in my career. We will absolutely be using iMP again for any future UK activations (if they will have us) and highly recommend for any companies seeking an incredible experience - ESPECIALLY if you're a US-based team like us, and need an expert on location.

Brand Director, Life360

Had a wonderful experience working with David and the whole iMP team for an event this summer! David went above and beyond to help wherever possible and the branded ice cream van turned out beautifully. Hope to work with iMP again soon!

Brand Manager, ETTG

Hiring iMP for an event I was leading on for a new client was a great decision. They turned around a high quality sampling event and promo vehicle with a very short turnaround time, and their staff on the day were incredibly enthusiastic and professional. They made the process easy and the client very happy, we'll definitely be working with them again.
