Orange is a big mobile network service provider launched in April 1994. Its aim is to be the number one provider in mobile communications. It has over 17 million UK customers and a presence in 166 countries. They wanted to build awareness of the Orange broadband offer and encourage users from rival networks to switch. The challenge was to make an impact: get as many people to see the advert as possible, be aware of the campaign and what's on offer.

The method chosen was to advertise a "T-side" campaign on red buses for London in order to build brand awareness. THE RESULTS: When asked to name Broadband Internet Service Providers there was a significant increase after the campaign - from 7% to 16%. 69% who saw the ad thought it was 'clearly branded' & 65% believed it was 'noticeable'. 45% of adults thought it was a good idea for their mobile service network providers to be the same as their ISP. THE CONCLUSION: "...bus and tube advertising captures the attention of early adopters & raises awareness of new offerings."
