"Reckitts are an incredibly traditional advertiser who spend virtually all of their budget on TV. This campaign was an enormous leap of faith for all involved at the client and OMD. The fact the initial concept was so strong, the work looked fantastic and was project managed brilliantly was all good, but now we have seen the research we know for a fact that it was a huge success. We have extremely happy clients who now believe not only in the power of creative cross media campaigns, but also in the team at Bauer. " Cate Murden, Associate Director, OMD Fuse.
