Brief Explanation

The objective was to get an untapped segment to pay attention to a daring Valentine’s campaign. Target audience was all Beiruti single ladies. BLOG CREATION We secretly identified a start-up blogger and we anonymously developed ivysays.com. VIRAL As Ivy blogged, she also publicized a manifesto that was circulated on the streets. ONLINE/DIRECT The “make your move” initiative started by developing a flower code, and distributing flowers in Beirut. Coded e-flowers were also sent online. USER-GENERATED Adaptations of the campaign popped up on Facebook. Women came together on Valentine’s eve in personalized “Miss” sashes, marching in the bar district.
