Telekom - Ghita switches to Telekom
Campaign: Ghita switches to Telekom
Brand: Telekom
Client: Telekom România
Lead Agency: LEO BURNETT
Contributing Agencies: Media Investment | V+O
Public Case Summary:
Ghita was a challenger brand campaign, that went against any previous “norms” of the Telco category.
Porting such a huge brand icon from your competitor was a one-of-a-kind approach in Romanian communication.
Porting Ghita, one of the most famous advertising characters ever build in Romania, was a game-changing move.
Instantly shaking people's inertia towards the commoditized telco category, and put Telekom offer under their radar.
Reversing the highly negative brand and business trend.
