The Connected Island
Three mobile, Ireland's second-largest Telco, originally established as a consumer brand,
encountered skepticism from big and medium-sized businesses regarding its network.
Standard B2B testimonial ads were ineffective, prompting us to pursue a more impactful strategy
to establish Three Ireland as a major player in the business market.
Our creative solution led us to Arranmore, one of the last islands
where the native Irish language is spoken. Arranmore, grappling with long-term population
decline exacerbated by lack of connectivity, presented an ideal challenge. By revitalizing this neglected island,
Three demonstrated its potential to transform businesses through its network and tech solutions.
This campaign became Three's most successful, significantly enhancing brand perception and network reliability scores.
Arranmore experienced an 85% increase in tourism, a 20% economic growth,
and reversed 150 years of emigration trends.
