Overview
The Metropolitan Rapid Transit Authority of Thailand had just launched its Purple Line but was greeted with lukewarm interest. It found that commuters might have felt the fares were too high. While price-cutting was one way to deal with the situation, there should also be a creative brand strategy to promote the new service's popularity among Bangkokians.
Results
Jenosize rolled out online and offline campaigns aiming at fortifying positive recognition of the Purple Line among commuters. On top of price incentives, the campaigns on digital platforms and at train stations were designed to brand the Purple Line as a gift for Bangkokians. The promotions were timed around the year's end festivals to accentuate the effect. Moreover, we helped promote the uniqueness of the service based on its long route that reaches the neighboring province of Nontaburi, enabling a new impression that the Purple Line offers good value. As a result, MRT recorded 70% growth of passengers for this new line.
