background
Orange launched in UK in April 1994 and is now one of the UK’s strongest and most recognised brands. It is now the UK’s number one operator in terms of active customers, with nearly 13 million users.

The aim of the Work Orange campaign was to translate this success on the consumer side to the business end of the market.
This was no mean feat given that both Vodafone and BT Cellnet (O2) are pre-eminent in this field. The campaign therefore had to be targeted and impactful.
As such Media Planning Group and Orange chose to launch the campaign in the quality national press and a small number of IT business publications. The lion’s share of the media budget was allocated to the The Sunday Times, The FT and The Economist since these titles were able to deliver senior business people and therefore have influence on the purchase of company mobile phones.
activity
In order to generate awareness the campaign used a number of creative executions which all followed 'Manifesto' style approach. Each creative outlined a key Orange Business benefit. The campaign’s theme was ‘Work With Orange’.
To ensure maximum impact was achieved, ‘fireplaces’ and vertical half page ‘bookends’ were used and the campaign ran in the Business section over a 20-week period with a tailored supplement appearing at the end of the period to amplify the message still further.
