Insights, Strategy and the Idea

Insight: EgyptianYouth seek multi-layered football experiences, they don’t only watch football, but they also check websites and social media platforms for football news and attend football and music events. And because music is the most liquid form of content which can deliver the campaign message directly into consumers’ hearts. The Anthem provides a unique opportunity to earn a fair share of popular culture. Objective: - Reaching 1M views within 24 hours on YouTube - To ignite passion for the game & togetherness, as well as establishing Coca-Cola as the brand for football fans on other screens than TV - Build a clear association with Coca-Cola as the main sponsor of the FIFA World Cup, and of “football” Strategy: To build anticipation and excitement towards the launch date & maximize reach on the day of the launch
