Idea
The Unforgettable Price
For one day we had the Big Mac at the price from 50 years ago.
Now the unforgettable taste has an unforgettable price.
Strategy
Our main source of data was obtain through Brand Watch, a social Listening tool. We processed the information and obtain the main insight which was the comparison of the price of the Big Mac years ago, to the price today.
This let us deep dive on our target profile and design a custom approach relevant for the local situation.
