The record-breaking ‘Live Your Passion with Purpose’ campaign of Smart Communications, Inc. (Smart) headlined by 21st-century pop icons BTS has won ‘Best Use of Video’ in this year’s Best of Tweets 2021 Southeast Asia by the popular microblogging and social networking service, Twitter.
A recognition for standout brands and campaigns, Best of Tweets 2021 seeks to “celebrate brands that championed innovation, creativity, and purpose” on Twitter.
Pursue passions with a purpose
In a post on its website, Twitter picked Smart’s campaign with BTS for ‘Best Use of Video’ as it highlights “a video series that features a catchy, upbeat remix of lyrics from BTS’ hit tracks, mashed with Smart’s core values and messages of passion and purpose.”
In the end, the campaign generated massive conversations on Twitter, with an overall 98% positive sentiment.
Twitter also noted the relevance of the campaign, which was launched back in April, a time when the COVID-19 cases were surging in the country: “Filipinos were feeling weighed down by uncertainties and pandemic anxiety, so Philippines’ telco giant Smart Communications decided to spread positivity by encouraging people to pursue their passions and purpose. To do this, Smart sought the help of global superstars BTS.”
“We are honored by this recognition, which shows the great lengths we go to just to enable our subscribers to pursue their passions with purpose. Our campaign with BTS really came at a perfect time, and we’re thrilled that both Smart and BTS share the same positive values and hopeful aspirations that resonate with many Filipinos,” said Jane J. Basas, SVP and Head of Consumer Wireless Business at Smart.
“Awards like this inspire us to keep delighting our beloved subscribers with amazing experiences on top of providing them with cutting-edge technology made simple by Smart,” she added.
