Samsung| The Golden Egg

Challenge

Samsung was about to launch the Galaxy SII and was looking for a partner that could help it reach out to its primary target group: mobile phone enthusiasts. This group was the earliest adapter of new technology. But that was the whole challenge: finding the correct content partner for generating the hype and sales for the Samsung SII.

Insight

The brand realised that game developer Rovia’s popular game Angry Birds would be the perfect fit to reach the TG. For Samsung, it was the perfect partnership, because Angry Birds enthusiasts were exactly the kind of mobile pioneers for whom it had tailored the new Galaxy SII.

Solution

In one of the deepest partnerships ever signed by Rovia, Samsung created a secret Golden Egg level which could only be unlocked by coming to Samsung’s co-branded site to find clues.

This was the first time that the wildly popular game had ever allowed a partner to reveal a secret new level to the game. It was also the broadest partnership ever agreed by the developer Rovio which helped Samsung to market directly to millions of Angry Birds’ biggest fans. 

It was just the sort of treasure hunt that die-hard fans loved to follow - and then to boast about when they had unlocked the level. The co-branded site was central to reaching players with detailed messages about the Galaxy SII.

Samsung excluded the Samsung logo from the secret Golden Egg level itself for fear of alienating players, but it gently reinforced the brand by using Galaxy SII colours and graphics throughout. 

And in a masterstroke that greatly extended the length of time users spent on the new level, this level came equipped with a special ‘low gravity’ environment as the Angry Birds were going into space. That meant it was challenging and frustratingly addictive even for veteran players, all of whom had to learn new tricks and techniques to progress.

Banner ads inside Angry Birds directed people to the Samsung site where they could find the clues to unlock the secret Golden Egg level. Samsung bought video pre-rolls and interstitial ads in which Angry Birds characters themselves told players where to go looking. Samsung promoted posts to the game’s Facebook and Twitter followers as well.

On the co-branded site, additional offerings were made to users such as competitions to win Angry Birds toys and merchandise.

Results

The discovery of the secret level generated so much internet chatter that it wasn’t just fans who shared tips on social networks, but also technology journalists who reported on the phenomenon. 

Nearly half a million users came to the co-branded site to pick up the clues that would unlock the secret Golden Egg level and almost 15,000 clicked through to the Galaxy SII product page to learn more. 

The game level itself was played 1.6 million times by the time the promotional activity ended. 69% of players said the level made them think of the Galaxy SII. Brand awareness jumped 10% after the campaign period and purchase intent jumped 4%.

RIM: BlackBerry Unveils BB10

Any doubt that the BlackBerry 10 is central to the survival of Research In Motion was likely erased on Wednesday as the company not only unveiled its new operating system and phones, but changed its corporate name to "BlackBerry," too. "We have a fantastic brand, BlackBerry, and we are known as such all over the world, except in North America," CMO Frank Boulben said in a video interview at the launch. "We wanted to take full advantage of that global, iconic brand."
"We have redefined ourselves inside and out," said CEO Thorsten Heins, speaking to launch events held across the globe from New York to Jakarta. "RIM becomes BlackBerry. It is one brand, it is one promise." He declined to specify the company's marketing spend for the corporate rebrand and a global launch of BlackBerry 10 that includes Sunday's Super Bowl ad buy, but characterized it as in the "hundreds of million dollars."







Along with a radically different operating system, the company introduced two new phones — the keyboard-equipped Q10 and the touch-screen Z10 — which employ a gesture-based interface similar to Apple's pioneering iPhone. Yet the new BlackBerry OS offers a host of distinct features.
"Flow," for instance, allows users to move between apps with the mere swipe of a finger, while "Balance" partitions users' work and personal worlds into two distinct environments, keeping data and messages in each from intermingling. 




Both phones sport a sharp 4.2-inch screen display and sports 16 gigabytes of storage, a memory-card slot for expansion and front and back cameras that record in high definition (1080p back, 720p front). Popular BlackBerry Message software enables free phone and video calls while screencasting.
Other features include Story Maker, which automatically grabs photos and turns them into videos with music, and an ability to "learn" and mimic users' writing patterns. Time Shift, its photo software, allows selections to be made from a series of quickly shot images.
BlackBerry 10 will launch with 70,000 apps including Angry Birds, Skype, Yelp, Twitter, Spotify, Foursquare, Dropbox, the New York Times and Amazon Kindle, while noticeably missing are Netflix, Draw Something, Pinterest, Hipstamatic, Instagram and major airline and bank apps. 



Also on offer with the new Z10 and Q10, a vast range of entertainment options, including an integrated solution for music, movies and TV shows, with major content partners including Walt Disney Studios and Sony Pictures, Universal Music and Warner Music Group.

The Z10 will not be available in the U.S. until March, while the United Kingdom will be able to purchase it Thursday, Canada on Feb. 5 and the United Arab Emirates on Feb. 10. Verizon will sell it for $199 on a two-year agreement, with other carriers like AT&T and T-Mobile expected to offer similar deals.
Release dates and a price for the Q10 were not given on Wednesday. Asked about the delay in rolling out the phone in the U.S., 



"I really do believe that the consumer market as a whole is ready for something new," said Kevin Burden, head of mobility at Strategy Analytics, ahead of the BB10 reveal. "I have to believe that there is some level of user fatigue that plays into the longevity of some of these platforms," he added, referring to Google Inc.'s Android and Apple's iOS, which are both more than five years old. "RIM is probably timing it right.

Philips Wake-up Light| 'Make me a morning person'

Marketers like dealing with universal human truths. You can normally rely on the insight section of a case study to feature phrases such like “people like to upload and share content”, “visitors want to engage with their favourite brands” and the awards-season favourite: “Young people love music”.

Another universal truth, and one that has been recognised by Philips, is that people generally dislike getting up in the morning. Philips has attempted to offer an alternative to early morning alarm clock in the shape of its Wake-up Light, a kind of bedside lamp that supposedly mimics the effect of a natural sunrise.

Philips recognised that people generally dislike getting up in the morning. Philips has attempted to offer an alternative to early morning alarm clock in the shape of its Wake-up Light, a kind of bedside lamp that supposedly mimics the effect of a natural sunrise.

The light was tested last year in the Norwegian town of Longyearbyen, where there is no sunshine for three months of the year, and its effect on the community was recorded in an excellent short film by Doug Pray. But while the lamp had demonstrated its effectiveness in the Arctic, a more relevant angle was required for the European consumer.

The 'make me a morning person' campaign kicks off late-September with a recruitment drive to search for the world's worst grumps, snoozers and zombies. Consumers can nominate themselves, their friends and family, or even a colleague, on Facebook to take part in the challenge. They can also take a quiz on Facebook to find out which of the seven morning types they are - The Grump, The Grunter, The Snoozer, The Zombie, The Corpse, The Early Bird or The Chirpy. Hundreds of entrants will then be selected to receive a Philips Wake-up Light and take part in the 21 day challenge.

The social experiment

From mid-October 2011, participants of the challenge will chart their progress via the dedicated iPhone 'Wake-app' that has mini-games to test them on alertness, mood and ease of getting out of bed, and will determine whether a 'non morning person' has truly become a 'morning person' by waking up naturally with the Philips Wake-up Light. The mini-games were designed with the help of Philips light therapy experts and the Wake-app is the first consumer-facing app to feature tests undertaken in sleep laboratories and clinical studies. Non-participants can also download the free iPhone app and take the challenge themselves.

Competition Centric strategy [ MOBILY /STC rivalry war]

Consumer-Centric strategy

There are a many companies especially those in the Consumer Package Goods (CPG) market that adopt the theory of running their business centered on Consumer, Shopper & Retailer needs. Their Marketing departments spend quality time looking for "Growth Opportunities" in their categories by identifying relevant insights (both mindsets and behaviors) on their target Consumers, Shoppers and retail partners. These Growth Opportunities emerge from changes in market trends, segment dynamics changing and also internal brand or operational business challenges. The Marketing team can then prioritize these Growth Opportunities and begin to develop strategies to exploit the opportunities that could include new or adapted products, services as well as changes to the 7Ps.

Competition-Centric strategy

Eroding Shopper Loyalty is result of:

• Changing tastes and lifestyles
• Fickle and demanding shoppers
• Ever-growing number of choices in the marketplace
• Shorter product life cycles
• Misalignment of prices with shopper needs and wants
• Little or no consumer loyalty to retailers
• Declining market share and gross margin losses
• Channel leakage due to retail channel blurring
• The impact of “big-box discounters”
• Vendor-led rather than retailer-led negotiations
• Fast-changing global economy that impacts both retailers and shoppers

STC Brand needs to dig deeper. They need to turn their perspective from inside-out to outside-in in order to get the depth and breadth of the insight they need to be truly customer centric.

Today's markets are places of conversation, connection and interaction. They are places where customers seek information and share their ideas and opinions. Customer-centric brands not only accept this shift, but embrace it by collaborating with their customers to define, create and deliver value.

So. What STC trying to establish with this ad???

And the reply came fast …Mobily thanks STC for exposing knockoff broadband device and urges it’s clients to look for Mobily original logo when purchase!!!!

But This is how all started, get internet without disconnection or wires..

****************************** **********************

Update 10/2009, Hurry up and order your DSL from STC, you might have it when your-newly born baby- in university ... oops All operators are busy

Celcom Broadband| Selling connectivity

Selling connectivity was seen as an easy task as i over and over again discussed with some creative heads... think again the shit advertised by STC, DU, Mobily is not creative. Wake up and please stop using ready made victor icons of social media.

Celcom Broadband connects users to the Internet wherever they are and whenever they want with ease. The use of paper projected from the dongle portrays an endless world of fun and limitless imagination, sending the message of the products ability to deliver the fastest speed, widest coverage and the most entertaining contents anytime, anywhere.

Cannes|Media Grand Prix Winner 2010|Canon Australia

Leo Burnett in Sydney took home the Media Grand Prix at Cannes for its "EOS Photochains" work for Canon Australia. The jury praised the campaign for its savvy use of paid media to lead people to an engaging online experience that tapped into the power of social media.

Cannes: Special Group, Orcon Win Direct Grand Prix

A campaign for broadband provider Orcon featuring Iggy Pop rocked the Direct Lions here in Cannes tonight, winning the Grand Prix for agency Special Group in Auckland, New Zealand. The 30 member Direct jury, the largest in Cannes history, also awarded 19 gold Lions, 23 silvers and 30 bronzes out of a field of almost 1,500 submissions.
  Orcon ran away with it, according to jury head Pablo Alzugaray, CEO of Spanish agency Shackleton. Orcon created a contest in which the winners helped the godfather of Punk rerecord his hit song "The Passenger" via webcam, and appeared alongside him while making the video. The results played out in real time, but at every stage of the contest, few could resist getting jiggy with Iggy. See a video of the campaign, and more Direct Lions results, after the jump.

 The category proved hospitable for the whole region Down Under: Six of the golds went to Australian agencies, including "Nothing Soft Gets In" for Toyota from Saatchi & Saatchi in Sydney and "Support Scent" on behalf of Guide Dogs Australia from Clemenger BBDO in Melbourne. Other gold winners included "World's Biggest Sign Post" for Nokia from Farfar in Sweden and "Eternal Moonwalk" for Studio Brussels from MortierBrigade in Brussels, Belgium.

  "Auditorium" for Heineken from JWT Milan, which has been widely awarded this season, won a silver. "Choose a Different Ending," an anti-knife campaign for The Metropolitan Police from Abbott Mead Vickers BBDO in London won a bronze.
"Hardchorus" for Puma from Droga5 in New York also got a bronze, the single award for a U.S. agency.
