SUMMARY
When LG entered the U.S. cell phone market in early 2004, the market was slowing and the target audience of 18-24-year olds, was difficult to reach. Knowing that this group could be motivated by a sense of being "in the know," the creative turned LG handsets into "the mobile phone to know," both in communication messaging and touch points. The campaign resulted in more than a 40% increase in revenue, 60% increase in unit sales and a significant increase in brand awareness and differentiation.
