SUMMARY
In 2009 Wrigley launched Orbit Big Pak, an upsized pack of gum. The campaign had to drive awareness, restore brand perception of cool and innovative, and re-connect with Orbit loyalists. By creating an original rap artist named 'Big Pak' with campaign elements and a roll-out strategy similar to how the music industry introduces a new artist, we blurred the line between commerce and contemporary culture. Results showed that the campaign was highly breakthrough, helped strengthen brand loyalty, and improved consumer perceptions of Orbit as a cool and innovative brand.
