To address these challenges, Iris, a brand strategy specialist, developed a 360 omnichannel brand campaign aimed at demystifying banking. The campaign was designed to make banking more accessible and understandable to the average consumer. To combat in-store clutter at NTUC FairPrice supermarkets, Iris hijacked non-traditional in-store touchpoints with strong and fun messaging. To drive sign-ups, a referral program was created that incentivized both the referrer and referee. This program was initially promoted through Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) via social media. With the understanding that Trust referral incentives were unlimited, the public started to promote their own Trust referral code on their personal social channels, making the program go viral within the first few days of launch. Iris also provided end-to-end social strategy and solutions to build a social media presence that sets Trust apart.
