Why did we do it?
The aim of campaigns for Estonian 100th birthday was to reach maximum audience, 90% of people living in Estonia. In the beginning of 2017 the overall knowledge about the event among Estonian inhabitants was 59%. So we had a lot of work to do, especially among Russian speaking audiences.

What did we do?
In order to bring out the essence of the message and reach as wide public as possible, we needed creative solution, influential for all different target groups and media plan, visible among many different people.

To tell stories, all wide coverage media types were used: television, outdoor and internet. All media types were used on even levels.
