- Market: North America
- Industry: Aviation

Scope
- Create an ad campaign focused on customer experience and airline safety.
- Reengage inactive loyalty customers, boost brand affinity, and increase ticket sales.

Challenges

- Limited paid media budget requiring success of campaign to live on earn media and virality.
- Keeping strong creative while staying compliant with FAA regulations.


Solutions Implemented
- Build creative to host a large footprint of talent with strong social follower base.
- Instead of a traditional commercial or music video director, we chose acclaimed film director Jon Chu (Wicked, Crazy Rich Asians) for his unique talent in bringing story, movement, and humor vividly to life.

RESULTS
By leveraging innovative strategy, creative, and influencer amplification, we helped Virgin America create a cultural moment around airline safety in a fun and relevant way, which increased brand affinity, loyalty, and sales, while outperforming their competition.
