Frontier's Favorite Animals Receive Honor Two Years in a Row

DENVER, June 9 /PRNewswire/ -- As if their heads aren't big enough already, Frontier today announced its favorite "spokesanimals" are preparing to add a 2008 Silver Effie Award to their already overflowing trophy case. Frontier's "spokesanimals" were recognized for the popular 2007 'Denver's Favorite Animal' advertising campaign featuring seven of Frontier's animals competing for the distinct honor. This is the second year in a row the animals have nabbed an Effie for the Company.

The prestigious Effie Awards recognize leaders in the advertising industry not only for the creativity of their campaigns, but also the effectiveness. Frontier Airlines was the only company in the competitive transportation industry category to even be considered for an award this year.

"It is such a great honor to receive this recognition for our 'Denver's Favorite Animal' campaign," said Frontier Airlines Director of Advertising, Diane Willmann. "This campaign was special in that it engaged the viewer to actively participate in the voting process. Leading up to the announcement we received more than one million online votes and the promotion contributed to a nearly 50% increase in traffic to our Web site over the year before."

'Denver's Favorite Animal' campaign combined 13 different television spots airing in the Denver market, plus additional commercials posted on the popular YouTube video sharing Web site; an online campaign headquarters, including a campaign blog; a 14-minute podcast featuring a candidates' debate; and an online campaign merchandise store that sold more than 800 "press kits," featuring T-shirts, buttons and stickers for each candidate.

The campaign, created by Grey New York featured seven popular Frontier animals competing for the honor of being 'Denver's Favorite Animal'. Larry the lynx announced the penguins, Jim, Joe, Jay and Gary, as the winners during the 79th Annual Academy Awards.
