Strepsils Stereo

While music is the pulse of the Pakistan’s youth and is being exploited by global brands with big-budget platforms, there exists little-to-no functional connect between brand and platform. Amid this content clutter, no brand had a more direct connect with singing than throat-soothing lozenges. So, we got rid of the instruments to focus on what was relevant to our Brand: VOICE. Rather than latching onto an existing trend, we collaborated with a leading artist/label to launch Pakistan’s first Acapella music platform which racked up 14.3 Mn views by Q3 2018

Dundee: A Tourism Campaign In Disguise

We staged the reboot of 1986's Crocodile Dundee in order to show off the unique nature of Australia, and revealed during the Super Bowl it was simply a tourism campaign in disguise. One that became the most successful in Tourism Australia's history.
