SCAN TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE YYC CAMPAIGN with Edges Salon&Spa
Calgary's Edges Salon&Spa
is using an innovative technology to spread the message of hope and raise funds for children in need this holiday season. Edges Salon, Redken Canada, and Calgary’s leading Mobile & Social Media Agencies, Hollow Earth Media and ENGAGEIA, have put together a unique QR Code campaign (Quick Response) with the QR code shaved onto the back of heads and on t-shirts worn by a brigade of “hope” agents – local high school and college students –
all in support of
ONEXONE’s, “Help Feed A Child” fund.
QR Codes are specific two-dimensional codes that are readable by dedicated QR barcode readers. They bridge online information accessed from the offline world through the use of smartphones.“Edges is the first salon to use the QR technology shaved onto heads and working with Hollow Earth Media and ENGAGEIA we have raised the bar for creative fund raising campaigns this holiday season,” says
Lina Chammoury, Director of Marketing at Edges Salon & Spa.
“The QR technology is immediate, so people can give and go, and their donations are instantly recognized allowing the money to be collected and distributed nearly instantly. We want to raise as much money as we can to support ONEXONE’s fight against child poverty and hunger.”For three years Edges Salon has been a major fundraiser for ONEXONE with their annual cut-a-thon raising more than $25,000.
How it works:
When the QR haircut has been scanned, audiences will be prompted to make a $5 donation by text message or credit card. In return for their support, participants will receive free REDKEN products, exclusive mobile coupons at Edges Salon & Spa locations and be entered into a mobile contest with further Edges Salon Gifts. To show support & donate: ensure mobile device is equipped with a QR code scanner. To download a QR scanner, text the word ‘SCAN’ to the 5-digit number 70734. “This past year ushered in a host of changes in the world of marketing, effective brand promotion, and nurturing customer relationships. When envisioning this campaign, we knew we had to bring on a team that both understood the recent shift in consumer behavior and how to optimize the campaign based on that”, says
Jaime Iredale, CEO & Co-Founder of Hollow Earth Media. Hollow Earth will be managing the mobile components of the campaign & ENGAGEIA the strategic online positioning.“The ‘Scan To Make A Difference’ initiative may very well be the head-tuner needed to grasp people’s attention to inform them of what a great cause this is, and provide an innovative way to show their support” says
Kent Speakman, President of Engageia & one of iMedia’s Top 10 Digital Marketers of 2011.

ARTwear 2011
It's this time of the year when great events happening in Calgary and one of them is definitely the ARTwear - The Art Gallery of Calgary's annual Fall Fashion Fundraiser.
It was the 9th year when the event featured a runway show highlighting the season's must-have fashions both for women and men from Calgary's hottest boutiques ( Apt22, Mealan, Primitive, ChiChi Couture & Holly Allen Jewelry, She Lingerie, Supreme Men'sWear, Thomas Jeffery & Shoe Muse/Checkm8 Shoes) including featured designer,
who this year was Zenobia ( www.zenobia.ca).
The theme for designing the beautiful space at Hotel Arts was Paris and it looked spectacular thanks to the Basic Black Designs Inc.
Also, huge applause to DCV Events for help putting the event together and coordinate everything!!
But this event is not only about fashion show - before heading to Hotel Arts, VIP and invited guests had a chance to attend reception at The Art Gallery of Calgary where they enjoyed cocktails while watching Wearable Art Fashion Show featuring students' work from the Alberta College of Art&Design.
The fun continued after the show as all guests had a chance to bid on Silent Auction and Fashion Trunk Show packages donated by local businesses. I cannot forget to mention that all party-lovers danced to the great beats of one of local DJ and the rest of people could continue socializing :-)
