BBDO, TLGG, and Cooperative Financial Group target young people
The Cooperative Financial Group (GFG), comprising Volksbanken Raiffeisenbanken, DZ Bank, EasyCredit, R+V Versicherung, Schwäbisch Hall, and Union Investment, has launched a first group-wide campaign aimed at 18-30 year olds. The campaign, titled "Das kriegen WIR hin," uses a social-first approach across social media, online video, streaming, audio, and cinema. Developed by BBDO, TLGG, and Omnicom Precision Marketing, it emphasizes the collective strength of the group rather than individual products. The first phase builds brand awareness and leads to a central landing page; a second phase will highlight specific products. Volksbanken Raiffeisenbanken also partner with band Electric Callboy for activation. Media agencies include VR NetWorld and Mindshare.
Campaign launch by a major financial group, relevant as a client campaign for agencies but limited direct impact on adtech.
