Work we are
proud of

In 2022 Visa, like other responsible brands, reevaluated its priorities, focusing efforts and resources on support. The company created a non-commercial platform that served as a forum for the coordinated efforts of Visa’s social initiatives and its partners, arising in response to numerous simultaneous needs.

The establishment of the Brands Who Care enabled the consolidation of media channels, businesses, foundations, and those needing assistance for effective aid and support. Visa directed its communication investments to support the platform, emphasizing timely messages on areas requiring immediate assistance. The campaign was created by the Saatchi & Saatchi Ukraine team.

To achieve maximum visibility, the initiatives were presented as Brands who care, rather than directly under the Visa name, which facilitated more effective interaction with the audience. The project garnered significant reach, with over 50,000,000 contacts.

Since the launch of the first collaborations, over 20 initiatives have been organized, and over 80 million hryvnias have been raised. Brands who care community continue to thrive and evolve as a community of socially responsible brands.

The research data from the Pace panel of Publicis Groupe Ukraine shows that only 19% of Ukrainians are willing to talk about their mental health. This is a relatively low figure, given that we are constantly under stress due to the war. Among the youth aged up to 35 years, as many as 40% experience fatigue and susceptibility to anxiety and depression.

Maybelline NY is not just a brand of decorative cosmetics but a lovemark for the youth, taking on a responsible social mission to support its audience in challenging times. In partnership with the charity foundation UA Mental Help, they launched the BraveTogether project, a psychological support initiative for youth.

It helps young people understand themselves and find ways to cope with various life issues. Through a hotline and a chatbot on Telegram, qualified psychological assistance is made accessible to everyone. Brand ambassadors – thought leaders of the young audience – have joined the project. The Zenith Ukraine team took charge of spreading information about the project.

For communication with the youth, digital channels were selected, and relevant Telegram channels, podcasts, and PR articles were chosen to thoroughly explain its capabilities to everyone. This media mix was crafted considering the high level of trust in personalities and resources, as well as the audience’s preferences in media consumption.

The chosen strategy worked excellently; more than 85% of our target audience (~4.1 million) learned about the Brave Together project. But most importantly, during the campaign period, there were over 16 000 unique interactions with the chatbot and through hotline. And the most crucial achievement is that 400+ people were trained to react in stress and about mental health.

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.

For years the Chewing Gum category was represented by 2 leading brands: Orbit and Dirol. Orbit was a prominent player both in media investments and sales. Meanwhile, Dirol was #2 brand and eventually fell into the stasis where ad investment maintained the existing level of brand awareness while losing its positions in brand usage, consideration, and market share. Yet, Dirol decided to refresh its positioning and appeal to a younger audience – Generation Z.

Looking for an interesting youth territory we came upon bloggers trend. A big part of the audience is not only interacting with blogger content but dreaming of becoming one. Willing to help people with video content we created a Dirol Blogger Academy. Participants of the project had the possibility to learn how to become a blogger with special lessons from popular influencers, and the winner got 1 mln. views on Youtube for promotion of personal channel.

This project reflected the audience’s dreams vowed prominent brand slogan “Dirol. Inspires with taste” and positively affected brand sales.

Pandemic is a hard time for people: we are flooded by bad news and sad thoughts. We all need a source of calmness and harmony during these times.

Therefore we created a new philosophy “Take it smoothie”, which helps to deal with bad moods and tough problems.

We used only social networks to promote our campaign and created bright content, interesting copy, and super cool Insta-masks.
