| Notes: | Etisalat, a brand that quickly grew to become the MENA’s (Middle East & North Africa’s) largest telecom had lost touch with consumers. People felt that over the years the brand had lost its human touch and had begun to feel cold and corporate. To get people to engage with its platform of togetherness, we locked onto an Arab insight. June 21st, Father’s Day to the world but not in the Middle East. In the Arab world, a father carries their eldest child’s name as a reflection of love and pride; the Abu’ tradition. Etisalat decided to commemorate this noble tradition by creating a social film that reminds people of this tradition and by asking them to use #IamTheSonOf / #IamTheDaughterOf or #أنا_ابن / #أنا_بنت on June 21 to reflect their appreciation for their fathers. Results & achievements: - Highest Brand Awareness in 2 years - Highest Ad Awareness in 4 years - Brand Power increase by 9% - More than 4 Million views in 2 days - 10Million+ impressions |
