Froot Loops World: From TV ads to World-Building

Froot Loops cereal was experiencing sales velocity decline (-17%) in a declining category and was losing its iconic status with the newest generation of kids (6yo+). But by breaking category rules and transforming Froot Loops into a world-building brand on Roblox, the most popular metaverse destination for 6-12, we fueled 48+ consecutive weeks of sales velocity growth and earned the coveted title of No. 1 branded game on Roblox.

WhatsApp: el gesto de la privacidad.

Con la actualización de los Términos de Privacidad de WhatsApp, brasileños empezaron a poner en duda su privacidad. Para defender su credibilidad y liderazgo, teníamos un argumento poderoso, pero complejo: el cifrado de extremo a extremo. Más que hablar de este atributo técnico, necesitábamos dejar claro su beneficio. Entramos de forma inédita en la cultura, “patrocinando” un gesto popular del fútbol. Una comunicación que blindó el liderazgo de WhatsApp, aumentando su frecuencia de uso y preferencia. Reforzamos la credibilidad de la privacidad ofrecida, generando confianza sobre la funcionalidad del cifrado.

The Last Performance

New Zealand is one of the most under-insured countries in the world for life insurance. To tackle this, we partnered up with NZ’s most popular ‘murder mystery’ TV show – The Brokenwood Mysteries. In an partnership that pushed the boundaries of what was possible with a media integration, we brought the murdered characters back from the dead for one last performance that challenged Kiwis to rethink preconceptions around life insurance. This inventive use of television, captured the attention of NZ and got the nation more interested in life insurance.
