Norwich Union Life this week unveils a major new advertising campaign which seeks to highlight the confusion many consumers feel when thinking about and planning for their financial future. The campaign aims to prompt people to take proper action and to seek professional financial advice.

The Ł4 million campaign makes use of TV, outdoor poster sites, and national and trade press advertising. The outdoor poster campaign will run across the UK with a focus on transport sites such as railway stations, the underground and on taxis.

The creative approach on outdoor and press advertising uses thought provoking headlines and a montage of imagery, helping to show the "confused" feelings people have, and highlighting Norwich Union as a major investment provider. National press adverts will direct customers to seek professional independent financial advice at www.unbiased.co.uk.

Mike Kirsch, commercial and marketing director at Norwich Union Life, said: “The new advertising campaign is designed to engage customers and get them to take action to plan for their financial future. Again we are showing our support for independent financial advisers by directing customers from press adverts to the IFA Promotions 'unbiased' website."
