Pizza delivery expert, Domino’s Pizza, is set to launch an advertising takeover on top video website – YouTube. The takeover is running on Friday [September 3, 2010] to mark the launch of Domino’s new lunch campaign.

The takeover sees Domino’s becoming the first brand in Europe to use YouTube’s new Quick Launch template. The template enables companies to cost effectively develop an ad from their existing images, videos and links and run it directly on the YouTube masthead.

Domino’s will be taking over the YouTube homepage to promote the company’s new UK-wide lunch menu, which includes six new oven-baked subs. The advertisement on the website masthead will include a 20 second lunch video, as well as an image gallery of the new menu and a Google Maps search listing to enable users to locate their nearest Domino’s store. A direct link to Domino’s Facebook page will also appear on YouTube to help generate click throughs and more fans.

The YouTube takeover will be running in the lead-up to lunchtime on Friday and appear on the website until 3pm. The takeover is taking place alongside a range of other media, including TV, radio and press advertising, to help promote Domino’s lunch campaign.

Simon Wallis, sales and marketing director for Domino’s Pizza, said: “We wanted to do something bold and a bit different to help promote our new lunch menu and we’re delighted to be the first in Europe to use YouTube’s new Quick Launch template. What better way to announce that Domino’s is not just for dinner than with our own lunchtime video on the world’s most popular video site. We hope this will liven up the lunchtimes of UK YouTube users and encourage them to get their teeth into our great new menu.”

Domino’s new lunchtime menu features six new oven-baked subs. The range features a number of Domino’s top pizza toppings, plus a host of new filling choices, in a freshly baked ciabatta. Each sub is made to order in-store using fresh ingredients.

Domino’s YouTube takeover has been arranged by Arena Quantum, the digital arm of media buying and planning agency Arena Media.

Domino’s Pizza store manager Steve Cubitt from Manchester – All Saints, has been awarded the highly prestigious title of international manager of the year at Domino’s worldwide annual awards in Las Vegas.

Beating stiff competition from thousands of Domino’s stores in over 60 countries, Steve was awarded the title for his determination, exceptional performance and for the high standards of food safety, quality and service that he achieves in his store on a daily basis.

Steve’s ambition and passion has seen him progress from a part-time driver during his studies at university to assistant manager and then manager of the Manchester Fallowfield store. In June 2008, Steve became manager of Domino’s new Manchester All Saints store and under his leadership the store has gone from strength to strength.

Unfortunately, Steve was unable to collect his award in person in Las Vegas so, in true Oscar-style, he recorded a video acceptance speech which was played at the awards in front of the 6,000 guests from Domino’s worldwide. The award has now crossed the Atlantic and is with its rightful owner, Steve.

Steve Cubitt, Domino’s international manager of the year 2010, said: “I am completely overwhelmed to be given this award. There are so many fantastic managers across Domino’s stores worldwide that I really didn’t expect to win. The award means everything to me – I’m so proud of everything I’ve achieved with Domino’s so far and this award has just made me even more focused and determined to carry on doing my job. It’s a shame I couldn’t make it to Las Vegas to accept the award but I’m looking forward to having a second celebration here in the UK with my franchisee and my team.”

Domino’s Pizza’s international awards recognise the talents and hard work of the franchisees and in-store teams from the company’s 9,000 stores in over 60 countries. Domino’s is currently celebrating its 25th anniversary in the UK and 50th anniversary in the USA so this year’s awards were a very special occasion, marking a significant milestone in the company’s history.

We are proud to have received an Award from Domino’s Pizza UK & Ireland.

It was extra special as this year the awards were held in Las Vegas and in addition to it being to celebrate 25 years of Domino’s Pizza in the UK & Ireland in was also Domino’s Pizza International’s 50th Birthday celebrations.

Whilst the Award mentions mine and Lisa’s names, it is our team in Lincoln who have helped Lisa support these events and get involved with each activity!

Whilst it’s impossible to name all our team who help support our involvement, a special mention goes to Jake Rawlinson, Stephen Briggs, Rachael Hughes, Josh Rawlinson, Stephen Andrews and Adam Winfield who have even been brushing off their trainers and kicking a few balls during each session… Some better than others I hasten to add..
