Neuron Philippines' latest Sun Cellular campaign departs from celebrity-led TVCs

The campaign will run for six months featuring a TVC, along with radio, print and outdoor elements.

The 30-second TVC is a departure from previous celebrity-oriented campaigns rolled out by Sun Cellular over the years, and instead opts for a cinematic 'cliffhanger' approach to emphasize that the Sun Call-and-Text Combo prepaid load is the most complete product in the market.

Viewers are encouraged to purchase the product to avoid being 'left in the air' as a result of abrupt endings to their calls due to insufficient load in their mobile phones. Prepaid load is a popular way of managing mobile phone bills for Filipinos who want to set a certain budget to their calls and SMS.

Poteet Gimenez, management supervisor at Neurons Philippines pointed out that the agency was always looking to develop fresh ideas and executions to better sell their client's brands. Hence, this may sometimes translate to deviating from the norm of using celebrities in some of their TVC materials.

Sun Cellular TVCs have been known throughout the years for featuring a host of Filipino celebrities such as  Aga Muhlach, Judy Ann Santos, John Lloyd Cruz and Iya Villania.

"The concept of this particular TVC also works best by featuring a more general public, which is primarily our target," added Gimenez.
