Make a Move
Agency: Leo Burnett Beirut
Client: Exotica
Judges unanimously praised this team and campaign, which was executed in Lebanon for a leading local flower shop chain called Exotica. The agency reported that its well known that Lebanese women outnumber men six to one. Exotica regularly promotes “making a difference” and wanted to help ensure single women were recognized on Valentine’s Day. The campaign was executed on multiple platforms, including women offering men roses in bars, nightclubs, restaurants, shopping malls and on the streets. “Exotica developed the ‘Make a Move’ campaign to help single ladies get the man they want,” the agency said. “By making sure that women were taking their fate into their own hands, the lucky boy would then send a bouquet to his Valentine. This was a very empowering process.” Several judges acknowledged the client’s courage. “A brilliant strategy to break some taboos while selling some flowers, too,” said one. “This campaign broke formal barriers and was courageous,” said another. “Great insight for women to activate.”

See The Person
Agency: Leo Burnett Melbourne
Client: Scope
Scope is an Australian nonprofit organization that provides disability services. Messaging, such as “see the person, not the disability,” regularly emphasizes just how capable people with disabilities really are. For this campaign, Scope and Leo Burnett Melbourne teamed with Aussie rock band Rudely Interrupted, which includes five members with physical and/or intellectual disabilities, to release a single, create a music video, and launch a national tour to illustrate the message. “Rudely Interrupted are the ultimate proof of this message,” the agency said. “The music video encourages people to see the band’s musical talent, and not the disability.” Going through the music industry helped the team reach a young target audience and increase awareness as the song’s popularity increased. Proceeds from the tour and sales of the track went directly to Scope. “Wonderful use of a music video to make their point,” said one judge. “Very engaging work,” said another judge. “Human, and interrupts in an interesting way in the media used.”

Supreme Security
Agency: Advico Young & Rubicam
Client: Supreme Security
As a private international operation based in Switzerland, Supreme Security employees travel frequently and are regularly screened by airport security. The campaign turned employees into job recruiters who targeted airport security personnel. They were perfectly positioned to deliver messaging to airport security workers, whose specialist training appeals to Supreme Security. Metal bars etched with written job offers were carried in employees’ hand luggage, thus revealing the job offers on baggage monitor screens.

The Value of a Coin
Agency: Wunderman

Entry Stamp
Agency: PKP BBDO
Client: Bayer
Bayer aspirin logos were used as hand stamps at popular nightclubs in Austria to reach 18- to 35-year-olds with the brand’s message. The agency noted that most wouldn’t really look at the stamp until after the party — when they would need headache relief the most. The action positioned the brand as understanding and helpful while also anchoring an association with aspirin as an effective headache remedy among this young audience.

Is This Art?
Agency: Wunderman Germany
Client: Lufthansa Germany
In partnership with a prominent German art gallery, this action promoted Lufthansa’s 99 ¤ flights within Germany and Europe on “paintings” framed and exhibited in various galleries and museums. Each canvas showed only “99 euro.” A description of the paintings explained the promotion and drove viewers to Lufthansa’s website. Overall, customers redeemed 5,000 promotion codes, which led to an additional turnover of about 500,000.
