Creative Execution

A campaign that reaches a younger audience through mall activation, social & digital elements, and the older generation through print and outdoor advertising. The campaign emphasized on the heritage aspect of Corolla. Developing a content which establishes an emotional bond with consumers, building on the fact that Corolla has been part of almost every Jordanian’s life since its first arrival to the Jordanian market. By taking our audience in a trip through history, we revived the brand and instilled the All New Corolla’s positioning firmly in our consumers’ minds. Media Mix used: Print Press, Outdoors, Online, Social Media and Mall Activation formed the campaign’s media plan The ads were created from scratch with the same look, feel, and tone of voice for Corolla's golden age communication. The primary message of the campaign, “always the best”, spans 5 decades, and focuses on portraying each decade’s pop style.
