The Meet the Olives campaign highlights seamless Adtech integration and the necessity of having authentic, relevant conversations in real time, while showing how consumers will let brands into their lives when they feel completely understood.

 

Why Olives?

People love to share their opinions about their taste for olives, which makes it a great conversation starter for our campaign platform.

In order to test whether olives are as polarizing as we thought, we polled social media. Our research resulted in a near 50/50 split in the debate.

We also found that for those who do enjoy olives, their consumption is just as varied as the Olive Family. And those who don’t, love to tell you so.

The Olive Family will have a presence on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn. Adobe’s main account will promote a new handle, exclusive to our campaign -- @adobexpcloudforad. All social media platforms will highlight the benefits of Adobe Experience Cloud through the Olive Family narrative.

The Olive Family will make their debut in the real world through out-of-home ads, with highly-targeted placements of billboards aimed to capture the Decision Makers and Practitioners on their commute. The ads will quickly grab our target’s attention and create intrigue, driving traffic to the website.
