Work we are
proud of

53% of Ukraine’s economy depends on food and agricultural exports. Today, landmines occupy 30% of our land, which is twice the size of Portugal. Without global assistance, it will take decades to make it safe. Countless agricultural fields remain dangerous. People can’t work there. 

The Minefields Honey Project ‒ the mix of nature and tech helps us to create a product that was never meant to exist by turning unsafe areas into flourishing gardens for symbolic honeymaking. 

Personnel limited edition jars with details about our issue became a diplomatic tool and were given directly to influential people. The harvested honey became an invitation to fundraising events for Ukraine’s demining. The first 55 personnel jars were presented at special economic events such as World Economic Forum (Davos) and, USA-Ukraine Partnership Forum (Washington D.C.).

For now, the project has resulted in 175 000 000 impressions and numerous headlines with zero budget investments. It also received awards in huge international festivals such as Cannes Lions, KIAF, and others. 

In 2024, Saatchi & Saatchi Ukraine, Kernel Ukraine, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, and the Union of Beekeepers of Ukraine gathered the new honey harvest to ensure the project’s continuation.

Kyivstar gain first place in the fragmented market of the fixed Internet and become “visible” for the non-beneficial algorithms of the search algorithm. Instead of classic SEO-approaches the brand left the template and optimized the landing page for each city and town, where there is a physical possibility of Kyivstar to provide the fixed Internet.

Experimental “local” tactics in SEO increased the visibility of Kyivstar’s fixed Internet in the first positions of organic search results by 3.5 times. Brand №1 has now caught up with itself in the search.

This case received Bronze Award in E-Commerce category at Effie Awards Ukraine.

Vanish changed its communication message to one that shows the benefits of its product, and at the same time provides an additional argument to encourage and support people in their quest for conscious consumption of the planet’s resources. Now the brand uses the message: ” Your favorite clothes look new much longer.” The Publicis Ukraine team also created an emotional print with the agency’s employees acting as heroes.

The work became one of the best global examples of “Print” ads of the first half of 2021 by “Lürzer’s Archive”. It is one of the most authoritative Austrian advertising resources. Since 1984 the issue has been publishing a selection catalog of the best advertising works from around the world.

Media support for Vanish projects is provided by the Spark Foundry Ukraine agency.

This is a showcase of how Lenovo, a hi-tech electronics brand, thinks not only about the functional features of its products, but also takes care of both product usage conditions and client’s comfort.

Creating of Lenovo Meowbook – laptop for cats – added more emotions into the user-brand relationships as well as highlighting such a problem as ‘device damaging from cat’s fur’ which became communicative innovation in this category.

Virus orientation, originality, and non-standard merging of high technologies and additional customer care allowed Lenovo to be organically discussed in media and got 9.5 million impressions.

Every year, before the Children’s Day, the Tabletochki Charity Foundation, together with Leo Burnett, launches fundraising campaigns for the treatment of children with cancer. These actions are so periodic that it is becoming increasingly difficult to reach people.

For 2020, the fund has set a MEGAGOAL in general: to shoot a video for a digital campaign that will raise a million hryvnias! And this at a time when people, in addition to the fate of cancer patients, were also worried about the virus, lockdown, uncertainty, unemployment… Additional condition: the foundation wanted to show in the video a real child who beat cancer thanks to philanthropists.

We have developed a script for the video. The main role was played by a former ward of the foundation – 9-year-old Artem. He became proof of the effectiveness of care and a symbol of a possible happy ending.

CHALLENGE

The male deodorants market is driven by 3 strong brands-mastodons both in sales & in media activity. Each leader plays on its own clear territory with different male groups.

Men Expert is a young brand in the category with still low brand awareness among men as weak media support doesn’t build wide TA reach & involvement into the brand niche for a long period.

INSIGHT & IDEA

IMPLEMENTATION

Zero stage: teasing OOH & digital campaign to stir up TA interest declaring new brand territory.

Semi-finals: strong TA reach achievement due to 2 non-stop days of DOTA Minor streams with Men Expert as main partner & digital campaign support led on a game console raffle to build link with business.

Grand final: active TA involvement into Grand final and native reach building driving by engaged bloggers.

RESULTS

We faced a challenge to break into the everyday life of people with a new product Kabanosy – long, thin sausages made from natural meat, positioned in between the meat-sausage and snack category. Until 2019 the product was unknown to both Ukrainian customers and distributors. Retail shops didn’t understand in which division the product should be sold, customers were puzzled whether to make sandwiches or eat Kabanosy with beer.

New product inspired us for a new approach for mixing media channels. We turned the classical media mix upside down and developed “DigiVision”, where digital plays a leading role in generating reach and TV is playing a secondary role. Non-standard and effective usage of media allowed Kabanosy to become a leader of the category of Snack and Meat products with minimal investment and significantly grew monthly sales.

Issuing new active payment cards with many transactions is becoming more and more difficult every year when it comes to a large bank. Standard audience targeting tools no longer work.

Thanks to the psychographic segmentation of the target audience, done with the help of partners, we were able to reach a new level of personalization. As a result, we improved our media metrics, got more active customers who made more transactions, determined which segments performed better and applied our knowledge to optimize our next campaigns.
