Insights, Strategy and the Idea

Our objective with this campaign was to increase volume by 15% in the cans and glass bottles category. We also wanted to make Coca-Cola the desirable refreshing brand for teenagers in the summer. The soft drink category is widely dominated by PEPSI in terms of Market share and Media spends. Our key idea drivers were first Coca-Cola's global mission to "Open Happiness" offering inspiring moments of uplift everyday; second was the fact that teens life in the hot Gulf Summers becomes boring and any opportunity of uplift and entertainment becomes a fun time. Our idea was to create an uplifting benefit.. Physically and emotionally. To give the consumer an experience that was genuine and real – YET surprising and Contagious The idea was brought to life with a simple 'BRRR' Sounds Funny and cool! Derives shivering and icy cold feeling! Promotes spontaneity! & Delivers refreshment!
