The Campaign
The story is about the struggle of Khairy, the Dolce employee, who has been trying for years to convince the CEO to introduce the Dolceca Mastic flavor, only to be met with constant rejection from the obnoxious boss. The story unfolds through the late 90s until our current day, and throughout all this time we see Khairy trying different approaches to his pitch and the CEO also rejecting him in equally innovative ways. The CEO somewhat seems to be enjoying this process and in time starts to toy with Khairy via his power dynamic.
Till one day a Lebanese hot employee suggests the same flavor and the boss acknowledges her great idea among everyone and agrees to launch the Dolceca Mastic cone, leaving the hero of our ad suffocating from his shock.
Creative Execution
Khairy: Sir, what do you think of Mastic flavored Dolceca ice cream?
Boss: Leave the file on Soaad's desk
Boss: Tell me the updates from our colleagues in China..
Khairy: Sir, I'm reminding you of the Dolceca Mastic matter
Boss: You want me to launch Dolceca Mastic in the market now? This is not the time!
Khairy: Hello Sir, people are loving the Mastic flavor. Trust me, it's going to be a hit.
You don't know who is speaking?! It's Khairy sir!
Khairy's Email: Sir, what do you think if we launch Dolceca Mastic this summer?
Boss's email: There will be no Mastic flavor
Boss: I'm coming to you today with good news. We have finally decided to develop a new ice cream flavor... Mango flavored Dolceca.
Because who doesn't like Mango fruit.
Boss: You have to fight for your idea, even if it will be turned down, you should push for it more than once. But not any idea of course.
Fight to sell your idea!
Ice cream seller: Ice cream Mastic, Mister, would you like ice cream?
Boss: Now that we are approaching the summer, we will be needing to launch a new flavor. Any ideas?
Joumana (Lebanese employee): How about launching Mastic flavored Dolceca ice cream?
Boss: Great idea! See everybody! Go Joumana! Mastic of course!
Demo: Dolceca Mastic, we finally launched it! Thank you Joumana
