TSB Banking : new TV ad shows the more you put in, the more you get out of it

TV viewers can now see TSB's brand new TV advert, which demonstrates the power of partnerships.

This builds on its recent 'Partnership' marketing campaign , launched in March 2016.

The new TV ad reflects on the Bank's unique focus on partnerships and how, like every great partnership, the more you put into it, the more you get out of it. TSB calls this Plusness.

Watch the new 30-second TV spot, 'Plusness', here .

The animated ad opens with 'TSB believes that the more you put into a partnership, the more you should get back. And that's what they call Plusness.' This is followed with an explanation of TSB's latest offer for its Plus account - more details here .

The animation - created by multi-BAFTA winning and Oscar-nominated studio AKA - shows a man playing with his dog, Henry, in a park. The man throws a stick to the dog and returns with a slightly bigger stick. The man looks surprised and throws the new stick for the dog to catch. The dog returns and again comes back with an even bigger stick. The new stick is thrown again and this time the dog drags a huge tree stump. It is explained that TSB's Plus account 'gives you more Plusness the more you use it'. The TV spot ends with the line, 'The Plus account. Gives you more plusness the more you use it'.

Nigel Gilbert, Chief Marketing & Communications Officer at TSB, said: 'Our Partnership marketing campaign is about partnership with local communities, with our customers and with everyone who works within TSB.

'We're living proof that a relationship with a bank can be so much more than just a transaction. We believe that the more you put into a partnership, the more you should get out of it, and this is really resonating with people.'

Damon Collins, founder of Joint, TSB's creative agency, said: 'Once again TSB has come up with an appealing proposition that delivers on its brand promise. The campaign has been very successful so far and this latest iteration will continue the good work.'
