OVERVIEW

Background

HiFi Klubben is a Nordic retailer that sells quality hifi-products with a very strong focus on sound quality. They’re known as the region’s leading experts on quality hifi and great sound, and HiFi Klubben is the go-to store for anyone looking for the best in speakers, amps, turntables and streaming systems. But how do we sell the concept of quality sound to a World that has forgotten the gift of listening?

Idea

We live in a time where no one listens. But listening is a gift.

The story is told from an unexpected perspective by a presenter who was born deaf. He reminds us of the power of listening and invites us all to join a community of like-minded listeners at HiFi Klubben.

This powerful campaign for HiFi Klubben urges us all to open our ears and listen to each other, to the other side of the story and to the World around us.

Strategy

Analysis shows that 85% of social media users watch videos without sound. We used this as a hook that succeeded in getting social media users to skip the skip button and engage with our message. The film worked as a wakeup call that reminded people to open their ears and rediscover the power of listening and the importance and joy of quality sound. This was emphasized through a direct flow of educational content and articles about everything from nostalgia in music to quality headphones and speakers. Everyone who pledged to listen was rewarded with a voucher for quality hifi products.

Execution

The herofilm was distributed through social media and drove traffic to a campaign website and a pledge to listen. Like-minded listeners were rewarded with a flow of content about the power of listening. Welcome Listeners forged a community of listeners and now works as a platform for newsletters, events, instore activations and social media content.
