ClientBriefOrObjective
In april 2011, FRANK changed from a pure design agency to become a multi-disciplined communication agency. The main objective of the promotion was to get attention from potential clients and make 'new' FRANK attractive and exciting for them. Another objective was to make the creative business talk about FRANK and build overall reputation.
Effectiveness
Norway's most important marketing publications, Forbes Magazine, Advertising Age, Yahoo news, and countless blogs worldwide mentioned the work. After 2 days, Twitter following increased by 25%. 4 months before the action, 'new' FRANK was not invited to a single pitch. 6 weeks after the release, FRANK was invited to 6 major national pitches, and won 3 of them. Agency profits up 49% compared to the year before in Q4 2011. Up 64% compared to the year before in Q1 2012. Won 'Best use of Twitter in a Campaign' at the Shorty Awards. The work has built both reputation and business.
Implementation
FRANK believes in the power of storytelling. Using relevant mediums, a story well told can move people and shape cultures. To commemorate 9/11 a decade later, we've decided to recreate and share this incredibly powerful story in a way that's never been experienced before. On Sept 11, 2011, FRANK's Twitter feed recreated the events of that fateful day 10 years ago, in real time from New York mayor Rudy Giuliani's point of view. The content of the Twitter feed was accurately shaped using content collected through various reputable media sources in the public domain.
Relevancy
As a 'fresh' communication agency you must embrace the new way of telling stories. If FRANK managed to create an engaging and powerful Twitter campaign, it would prove that FRANK was an interesting player in a market where FRANK was "only" known for being great designers.
