Zain — Addicted to Data

Cover image for Zain — Addicted to Data

Agency: Seven Brands

Client: Zain Bahrain

Project Type: Integrated Campaign

People weren’t buying minutes anymore. They were buying data. So we said it out loud, on the walls.

The brief

Zain Bahrain wanted to own data. Its new plans let customers choose smaller voice and text bundles, with enough data for how they really use their phones.

The idea

Data lives on the street, so the campaign did too. I found young graffiti artists and worked with them to paint murals in four locations across Bahrain.

Your authorised data dealer.

From the wall to the feed. The same spray-paint world carried into social: “More GBs with The Big Gigs Family”, signed #AddictedToData.
