The Plug
Vans: Keys to the Kingdom

The challenge

Always-on social content can easily become noise. The opportunity was to create repeatable formats with a clear strategic role: earning participation from families, building authority in sport, and giving emerging youth culture a credible platform.

The approach

Each platform began with the audience need and a measurable business objective. Schools Got Talent made Back to School participatory. The Plug made product expertise entertaining. Keys to the Kingdom made Vans relevant to Saudi Arabia’s emerging skate, art and music communities.
