ABOUT THE CAMPAIGN
The integrated launch campaign had a strong offline advertising base, allowing target audiences to be exposed to Etele Plaza’s segmented messages through billboard, citylight, building mesh, vehicle advertising, print, and TV ads from 1 September. This was supported by a strong online presence with ongoing social media content, banners, and online TVC mutations.
The essential elements of the campaign, the TVC, and the photographed visuals were created over a five-day production week, with a crew of around 100 people. The film uses a novel and immersive camera movement to introduce the USPs of Etele Plaza, covering all target audience segments at the same time. The photos featuring the latest fashion trends bring the atmosphere of Etele Plaza to life in a striking way.
The aim of the campaign was to showcase the diversity of the department store in a fresh and youthful way. Etele’s slogan says: it’s full of the most, it’s full of the best. The letters of the word Etele were the inspiration not only for the logo but also for the creative concept. The juxtaposition of Etele and full (“tele” in Hungarian) was an opportunity that Republic Group could not miss when creating the tagline: “Etele – tele legekkel” (Etele – full of the most, full of the best). The newest shopping centre of Budapest is indeed not short of things of the highest quality. When designing the slogan, the agency thought of the store’s entire assortment and dreamt up service-focused sign variations broken down to the different target groups. They revolve around 6 themes (a wide fashion range, the spacious and modern food court, the terrace-connected fitness room, the mobile app, the private cinema, and the meeting point) that make the department store unique.

We organised a concert in Etele Plaza, inspired by the music of the department store’s TVC. Singer Sena Dagadu performed her own songs as well as the well-known “Here Come the Girls” from the Etele Plaza commercial.
The concert was supported with a strong lead up social media campaign that included targeted ads, social posts, and a themed Facebook event. In addition to these, we also provided offline traffic generation in the form of roll-ups and on-site hosted presence.
