Brief

Hotlink was losing prepaid market share in East Coast and East Malaysia: communties that are immensely proud of their own artisans and crafts. How might we champion these craftspeople who lost their livelihoods during the pandemic?

Solution

We immortalised the craft of lcal artisans like Sandakan-born artist Kenji Chai on the blockchain via NFTs. We amplified their exposure further through an online content series, and even turned our outdoor media buys into canvasses for their art (which we also minted as NFTs).

By turning a global trend into an empowering local stage, we enabled aluable exposure and income for our local artists, with 3 million engagements, 32,701,218 imoressions and 10.9 million views. This in turn gave us brand love in the region, with +6 points in Rural Prepaid Brand Preference (reversing declines) and +26% subscriptions for Hotlink Prepaid Pantas.
