Personifying high-speed internet
Contributions
Vast Broadband Brand Icon
Food…clothing…shelter…broadband. With today’s streaming, sharing, and connected culture, it’s not a big stretch to see that reliable internet has become essential for everyone. Vast Broadband wanted to find a way to distinguish themselves from the many competitors out there.
Situation
During the past several years, Vast had opted for a variety of campaign themes – usually changing up imagery and taglines to go along with the seasons. Developing assets for each campaign was not only less efficient and more expensive, it kept the brand from distinguishing itself. Red Letter proposed an ownable approach to be flexible enough to evolve with the brand and various promotions.
Strategy and Solution
Meet Max Vasterson. Red Letter created a high-speed hero who literally personified the ability of Vast Broadband to quickly deliver anything customers wanted and, like the brand, was always in the background, ready to help out in any situation.
