BRITISH AIRWAYS - WORLD CUP 2018

Our aim was to find a way to utilise some of the technologies involved in live sports marketing. We picked world cup matches where BA fly to both opposing countries and created a bank of content that would appear in real time during the competition.

We utilised DOOH advertising located near ‘fan parks’ in central London, and Twitter as our social platform due to its popularity in sport discussion. Each piece of content was based on in game actions; e.g. a goal scored, a victory, a booking, VAR being used and many many more.

We created a bank of assets for each game so for any specific scenario we had a piece of content that matched the event live, and was seen in real time.   

  • Click through rates went up 58%

  • Cost-per click improved by 11%
