Straight Talk
This campaign introduces a New TWA with straight talk from the people of the airline. It encounters a critical, core audience's negative perceptions of the brand with earnest promises to improve on the basics, and announcements of new aircraft and new products. Its goal was to bring these customers back to the airline, and inspire confidence that improvement would continue. It was effective in increasing business, raising brand perceptions, and motivating employees to deliver on the promises made.

Rising
Entering 1997, the challenge facing United airlines was incredible: they were a brand in an industry reviled and distrusted by their most frequent customers; they were seen as a commodity player in a cluttered marketplace; they were targeting the same audience as their competitors but realizing less success. Their goal to become the most preferred airline was a lofty one and to attain it they developed a three-prong strategy of attack: acknowledge the importance of those who are best customers; empathize with their plight; and prove a willingness to act on their needs. After only two months of practicing this strategy via marketing communications, the brand has witnessed success by beginning to connect on a meaningful level with their customers, setting itself apart from the competition and increasing intent to purchase while at the same time, its primary competitors saw their brand preference measures decline.

New York Buzz Campaign
Continental Airlines needed to shift perceptions of New York City travelers to convince them that Newark International Airport is a valid alternative to LaGuardia and JFK and that Continental is a "legitimate" airline providing competitive service and scope. N.W. Ayer developed the New York "Buzz" campaign which delivered the message in a real "New York" voice and was placed within the walking landscape of targeted Manhattan neighborhoods.
