FIVE AWARDS FOR CITROËN IN GERMANY WITH ITS ZITRÖN CAMPAIGN

Do you remember: in 2019, Citroën was celebrating its Centenary but also changed its name... in Germany. Even if this change only lasted for the duration of a marketing campaign, it appealed to the jury of the Art Directors Club festival who has just rewarded it in five categories: PR (silver), Print Advertising (silver), Digital Communication (bronze), Brand Content (bronze), Media Relations (bronze).

The Zitrön campaign began on the 22nd July 2019 with a video featuring a German dealer in the midst of the changes brought about by the new name: point-of-sale posters, business cards, etc. Digital was not to be outdone, with the adaptation of all the Brand's digital media (website, social networks, etc.) for 3 days, for a campaign 100% Inspired By Germans !

The campaign "The end of an era: Citroën becomes Zitrön" was accompanied by a competition involving a Citroën SUV C5 Aircross model, renamed Zitrön Z5 Aircross for the occasion.

A second video completed the buzz in Germany with a vox pop carried out on the occasion of a gathering around the Brand's Centenary, in which visitors were invited to pronounce "Citroën", not without difficulty, but always in a good mood!

In addition, the Zitrön campaign recently received a silver award at the festivals of New York ('Creative Marketing Strategy' category) and the Digital Max Awards ('PR and Brand Content' category).
