At the end of 2014, a unique YouTube advertising campaign has been launched in Hungary. Microsoft along with the regional video game and console distributor called 576 KByte aimed to promote the Xbox One and some of the new video game titles such as FIFA 2015 or Forza Horizon 2. The unique aspect of this campaign was that for the complete creation of the spots, famous Hungarian YouTubers and gamers were responsible, who were given full trust and support of the brands. Such campaign has never been done in Hungary before and it stands as an example to follow in the region as well.

Approach

Each week, one spot was launched on YouTube in the form of preroll advertisement and the videos were also published on the channel of 576 KByte. Moreover, Star Network launched remarketing ads too, which were targeted at viewers who already saw the previous ads but they did not perform the desired actions.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”18px”][vc_column_text]The unique aspect of this campaign was that for the complete creation of the spots, three famous Hungarian YouTubers and gamers were responsible:[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”18px”][vc_column_text]
