EntrySummary
In Ireland, areas of poor mobile phone coverage are a constant problem. That’s why Ireland’s largest telecom company, eir, introduced WiFi calling – which eliminates coverage problems by using WiFi to boost your mobile phone signal. Our brief was to create mass awareness of eir as innovators in the mobile market, while reduce the technological complexity of this new product into something simple that consumers could easily grasp.
In Ireland people refer to areas of poor phone coverage as “black spots”. So to launch this innovative new product, we used a medium that isn’t traditionally known for innovation, print, and created a simple analogy for what WiFi calling actually does. We took over the entire Daily Mail magazine and removed every single black spot. Every full stop, semi colon and tittle was replaced with a colourful eir dot.
No one likes black spots. So eir got rid of them.
