CampaignDescription
BBVA is the bank of the people, and is responsible for helping Peruvians to achieve their dreams. For that reason we needed to find a motivation that could move them to reach a common goal that we could help to achieve.
BBVA asked all Peruvians to join them and bring back Peruvians' most iconic rock star: Pedro Suarez Vertiz. He stepped away from stage due to Dysarthria, a rare motor speech disorder that wont let him speak again.
First, we offered all Peruvians a challenge: If 1 million people ask for Pedro Suarez Vertiz to comeback, he would. People simply had to sign a petition and sing in order for Pedro to hear them. Over 1.4 million people participated. Two months later, Pedro was back in a unique concert where he contributed the music and the crowd was his voice.
The comeback of Pedro was something no one was waiting for. That’s why it was an unprecedented PR event. The bank saved 1.5 million dollars in free press.
