activpayroll: Improving ROI by 45%

 


Crafting a new global brand

activpayroll needed a brand overhaul to transform it into a global market leader in a category experiencing a tide of aggressive competitor activity. Through global in-person and virtual Co-Create by SHARP workshops with stakeholders, customers and in-country partners, ‘We Partner to Navigate Global Complexity’ emerged as their new proposition. We then created their powerful, new tagline and brand promise, ‘We’ve Got You’. A fresh logo and visual identity featuring the ownable ‘activ-line’ captured the momentum they bring to their customers’ businesses.

 


2 million customers and counting

The new brand was exploded across all collateral, events, internal branding, paid, earned and owned media. A dynamic website featuring flowing pathways between sections, and the new activBlue and activMint colour palette delivered a behaviour-changing digital experience on a vital platform that helps process over 2 million payslips annually across more than 150 countries. Working shoulder to shoulder with their sales team, we also helped map out the sales journey to aid conversion. Now activpayroll has a brand that will grow with them as they expand into new markets and acquire new businesses along the way.
