Leeds agency locks in 12-month creative brief with smart security giant

Brand and communications agency, Ponderosa, has won a competitive pitch to deliver a 12-month marketing campaign with an EMEIA roll out, for leading smart home security manufacturer, Yale.

With a spike in demand for home security devices, Ponderosa has been tasked to raise awareness of Yale’s state-of-the-art, Smart Security Ecosystem during key consumer moments, including Summer, Back to School, Black Friday and Christmas.

Tapping into the brand’s ‘Security Made Simple’ messaging, Ponderosa will create a marketing strategy, develop creative concepts and deliver a full asset roll out.

Research from Statista suggests by 2029, the smart home security category will reach 8.1bn euros, indicating strong consumer demand and an upward growth trajectory.

Ponderosa will focus on Yale’s product range within its Smart Security Ecosystem, ensuring that messaging resonates with consumer needs, and aligns with the brand’s core promise of simplicity and reliability.
