SUMMARY
How do you grow a badge brand like Heineken in places where the badge has little meaning? We need to think outside the box - or in this case, the bar. But to do this, we could not rely on Heineken's badge value. We needed to truly tap into their emotional connection to -- and drive for--this brand. Our campaign depicted how guys will do just about anything for a Heineken, as a way to have them rethink its relevance in at-home occasions. Three little words, "I love you" spoke to their hearts - and created a thirst for the Heineken brand. In the process, we took a bite out our key competitor, Corona, and hit them where it hurt- Miami, LA and NY.
