Execution
NO FEAR IN BATHTUB RACES
Trident was running a TV ad showing a local youth who spots a bathtub on the streets and with a magical spark from Trident, transforms the tub into a street racing vehicle. We wanted to bring this authentic and compelling idea to life and implement it across different media platforms.
Via an App we challenged consumers to design their own bathtub racer. Participants could share pictures of their designs and promote themselves to get votes from friends and fans. The top ten designs were then invited to race against each other in a bathtub race for real.
By sponsoring the political satire show Al Bernameg with Bassem Youssef, we were able to interrupt traumatic news with fun Trident messaging. TV brought messages to the masses that the rioting street of Egypt could be transformed into a safe, fun and creatively rewarding place.
Strategy
WHAT DO “STREETS” SYMBOLIZE?
Relatively new gum brand Trident promotes an image of creativity, imaginative experience and fun against Egyptian youth’s constant fear of street riots and surviving daily chaos.
There was a large disconnect between brand image and Trident’s target audience, so our challenge was to establish Trident as a brand that ignites moments of shared fun. We wanted to inject joy, laughter and fun back into the youth of Egypt as they deserved more positive moments in their lives.
We gave them a splash of happiness with an app and the first ever, bathtub street race. In doing so, this would position Trident as the catalyst for such positive moments and enable them to steal back market share from the bigger players in the gum industry.
