BACKGROUNDIn summer 2011, Coca-Cola wanted a big idea for an increasingly competitive market and get Australians to sit up and notice Coke.
A campaign was needed that would make a big splash and disrupt and excite Australians. It also needed to have mass appeal, while hitting the 24-year-old bullseye target.

OBJECTIVESThe primary campaign objective was simple: increase consumption of Coca-Cola over the summer period. The secondary objective was to get people talking about Coke again.
The campaign needed to make consumers see Coke in a way that would encourage them to actually consume the product, not just love the brand.
