The Brief
OBJECTIVE
In the wake of the Arab Spring, how could Coke further empower a group that had already done so much to empower their nations?
Describe how the promotion developed from concept to implementation
INSIGHT
We hit the streets of Saudi Arabia and the region to probe the state of mind of Middle Eastern youth, who find themselves at a crossroads of Modernity and tradition, globalization and tribal customs. Family dictates their choices and they’re constantly judged by society.
We found that their biggest challenge to overcome was them vs themselves.
CHALLENGE
These youths gained empowerment as a group. Our challenge was to empower them as individuals
Describe the success of the promotion with both client and consumer including some quantifiable results
20 days post launch on Facebook:
80000+ new likes,
78.1 million posts’ impressions,
15.4 million viral reach,
9.1 million page consumptions
6.8 million page engaged users.
Facebook app/film tab got over 350,000 views - 17 views per minute
Within 12 hours, 300 000 mobile users downloaded the ‘Today I Will’ film in Saudi Arabia alone -a regional record.
250,000 USD worth unpaid media coverage.
Our can influencers were interviewed on television for their ‘Today I Will’ stories.
The Coke can would never been seen as a mere can anymore, but a symbol of inspiration for youth across the Middle East.
Explain why the method of promotion was most relevant to the product or service
We created Coke ‘Today I Will’. An initiative to unlock individual potential while staying true to Middle Eastern values.
To activate it, we designed ‘Today I Will’ Coke cans.
Through an augmented reality Facebook app people watched inspring stories on the ‘Today I Will’ can of individuals who overcame challenges, realizing their potential. We invited youth to share their own and be on the can too.
We brought together the region’s online influencers activating their followers.
We created In-store posters, promoting the initiative.
We launched Today I Will film on the cans itself and on facebook, before TV and mobile.
