Why is this work relevant for Brand Experience & Activation?

The product is Prepaid packages, which are targeted to the younger consumer and to the consumer who doesn’t like a commitment. The campaign is a continuation of the previous campaign of the same product, so the platform that remained the same with a little twist is “Your Mood”, wherein the previous campaign the emphasis was on the unlimited services that the packages offer that could better a person’s mood. Now, we’re confirming that prepaid packages are tailor-made to live up to your mood.

Background

Problem competition is fierce in terms of communicating to the younger consumer, as this campaign fell on the Back to School season. So, Mobily needed a different approach to appeal to the targeted audience and resonate throughout the season. Also, we need to reposition our prepaid packages to its rightful place in terms of having the best offers for the best prices. Solution With the Back to School season coming up, it is a great opportunity to reshape the prepaid package approach to its targeted audience. we are young, vibrant, and bold, which leads us to the need of developing a positioning campaign with a relevant direction to the young generation that is all about new trends and living the moment through a hip music video that speaks the young lingo, play the newest music, and lives the same lifestyle.
