How Double W Worldwide's Award-Winning Campaign Boosted Lebara's Market Share and Customer Loyalty
Helping Lebara Become The Smarter Mobile Network
With 71% of mobile users paying for more data than they use, Lebara set out to challenge the big four networks and deliver better value to an untapped audience of 24.8 million “smart savers” looking for a smarter, more cost-effective choice. Inspired by value brands like Aldi and Lidl, Lebara aimed to dispel the myth that affordability means compromise on quality.
A Smarter Network Strategy
To break into a flat market as the fastest-growing network, increase subscribers, and reduce churn, Lebara needed a comprehensive and innovative campaign. Partnering with Lebara we went beyond traditional price messaging, positioning Lebara as the mobile network that’s both smarter and reliable in delivering value.
Targeted Creative Across Channels
The campaign focused on clear, strategic moments: “So You Dont Pay More”, showing customers that they don't pay more because Lebara don't spend money on things like sponsoring football teams or hiring Hollywood stars. “No Annual Price Rises” timed against the annual price rises of Main Network Operators (the competition), “Roam Like Home” during summer travel and school holiday periods, and “Smarter Savings” against the back drop of the UK’s cost of living crisis. Each message was crafted to resonate with consumers at the right moment, elevating Lebara’s standing as the smarter choice.
