Challenge
YES was well known as a broadband internet provider. We knew that getting a niche on the Malaysian mobile market would face serious competition with big players out there. The greatest challenge was to
make users switch to the new YES 4G after 10 years of being with their regular providers.
Approach
Having conducted an in-depth analysis of the Malaysian mobile communication market we learned that most players offered similar value for money in terms of *unlimited internet, *wide coverage and *affordable
prices. It suggested how to differentiate YES from the competitors: place emotions at center stage. Unlike others, YES didn’t position itself as a tech company. Something that consumers seemed to like and which led us to
the idea for the new positioning.
Outcome
Our work resulted in the revised brand strategy with the new brand positioning founded on YES's unique and emotional attitude to its users and communication as such. To reinforce this, we also developed
a new visual identity including an updated logotype with the more contemporary look and feel along with new colors, typography, and imagery that all together convey the brand's human and emotional approach.

The WonderBox – Photo booth
The WonderBox Photobooth is a part of the internalization campaign to help induct employees into new brand speak. Placed in YES stores and at the HQ, employees can take sticker-mugshots of themselves that are generated in
the YES SPECTRUM.
These mugshots replace the existing photo on their ID tags.
The Wonders
on the streets
We created the series of outdoor posters with prominent visuals and catchy headlines that led to unique offers crafted in brief form. Visuals immediately create the emotional bond, we used personas in the YES SPECTRUM to represent revealed potential with YES 4G LTE.
YES Wonderful Launch
We planned something special to introduce YES 4G to Malaysia.

Short ads, fast digesting
Based on data we knew what are the most popular channels among the Malaysians, so we created pre-roll ads on youtube that appear on particular channels.
