Jet.com and R/GA Win Cannes' Media Grand Prix for 'Innovating Saving'
Posted in: Uncategorized
Jet.com and R/GA’s New York office won the Grand Prix for Media for the e-commerce startup’s audacious “Innovating Saving” campaign.
WHAT IT IS: One highlight of the campaign was hijacking the Super Bowl, without paying Super Bowl TV ad prices, by doing an online commercial for Jet.com’s own “super bowls”. Key words and tagging made that spot more relevant than real Super Bowl ads. Other ads showed cost-saving ideas that didn’t work, like having a robot wrap things. And Jet.com, which was bought by Walmart last year for $3.3 billion, even told people to rethink what they shell out for the holidays, suggesting that they peg spending on friends and family to the social-media “likes” they gave. Jet.com has more than seven million registered users.
