Our Approach
Glen collaborated with HT Brand Studio to establish a distinctive connection. Our challenge was twofold: engage families and seamlessly integrate Glen appliances into their lives, emphasizing the emotional bonds shared among families and neighbors. Our content strategy revolved around spotlighting kitchen appliances, food, and familial love. We used 20-second promotional videos infused with humor, romance, and togetherness to pique interest. We employed Interstitials in a video format for impactful storytelling.
Campaign Execution
The content strategy was kept central to the objective of keeping the kitchen appliances, food and love between families as a central theme. Sneak peek (20 second) videos were created as a promotional tool to draw interest blending humour, romance and togetherness.
