Creative Execution
Every year Maurice Levy addresses his greeting to the employees of the Group through a Youtube video. Since we believe tradition doesn’t prevent innovation, we set out to do something new in this well known media.
We realised that the employees themselves would be the best social currency to spread the word. To their surprise, at the end of the experience, we gave them a "group selfie" that had been taken by the webcam.
Employees then shared this photo on their own personal social networks, making it not only a success with Publicis Groupe and externally.
- 110000 times (which is great for a group with 59000 employees).
- Average time spent on the video approx. 00:03:49
- Facebook: 2 828 034 impressions
- Twitter: 2 832 interactions
- Worldwide media coverage : more than 200 clippings
The ultimate KPI was that employees volunteered to spread the word via their own social media accounts. We surprised them with a "group selfie" that had been taken by the webcam. 85% of participants shared it online.
We managed to get a digital greeting to bring Publicis Groupe co-workers physically together at Christmas time.
The Publicis Omnicom merger had always been discussed in a financial way. We used Maurice Lévy’s 2014 internal greeting to start talking about it in a very human way.
The More the Merrier.
The more people that join in during the video, the merrier it becomes. The webcam can count how many people are watching: on your own, you’ll only see a corporate speech, but if you gather some friends, you’ll see Maurice Lévy trying to keep his cool delivering his speech surrounded by a confetti storm, cheerleaders or even Chinese dragons…
