In 2022 Visa, like other responsible brands, reevaluated its priorities, focusing efforts and resources on support. The company created a non-commercial platform that served as a forum for the coordinated efforts of Visa’s social initiatives and its partners, arising in response to numerous simultaneous needs.
The establishment of the Brands Who Care enabled the consolidation of media channels, businesses, foundations, and those needing assistance for effective aid and support. Visa directed its communication investments to support the platform, emphasizing timely messages on areas requiring immediate assistance. The campaign was created by the Saatchi & Saatchi Ukraine team.
To achieve maximum visibility, the initiatives were presented as Brands who care, rather than directly under the Visa name, which facilitated more effective interaction with the audience. The project garnered significant reach, with over 50,000,000 contacts.
Since the launch of the first collaborations, over 20 initiatives have been organized, and over 80 million hryvnias have been raised. Brands who care community continue to thrive and evolve as a community of socially responsible brands.

At a time when the conventional approach is used in customer communication in the category of chocolate bars, we have managed to find our own viable solution – personalized communications with individual segments of a wide target audience. And this is what has delivered fantastic results – our market share has grown over as many as three months for the first time since the beginning of the lockdown. We have chosen to work on five segments that cover the majority of a wide audience aged 16-35. That said, however, we managed to appeal to each of them individually, to become closer and more relevant to their particular preferences. We have developed tailored solutions for each of them: packing, messages, media support, opinion leaders, and presents that meet interests. As a result, everyone had the opportunity to feel like a king in what this particular person was interested in. All these efforts have resulted in heightened attention, engagement in communication, and the main result – fantastic performance indicators!
Challenge: To check the decline in the brand’s market share by means of highly relevant communication that engages the audience.
Insight: While everyone else in the category is working with a wide audience (16 to 35), we can pave our own way of segmentation and personalization of the message.
Idea: Lion encourages you to feel like a king (Lion) in what you are interested in.
Bringing the Idea to Life: Tailored solutions for each of the five selected segments: from packing and message to communication channels and targeting.
Results: An increase in the market share by 1.7 percent after the start of the campaign due to the high engagement in communication.

Until 2019 the product was unknown to both Ukrainian customers and distributors. Retail shops didn’t understand in which division the product should be sold, customers were puzzled whether to make sandwiches or eat Kabanosy with beer.
New product inspired us for a new approach for mixing media channels. We turned the classical media mix upside down and developed “DigiVision”, where digital plays a leading role in generating reach and TV is playing a secondary role. Non-standard and effective usage of media allowed Kabanosy to become a leader of the category of Snack and Meat products with minimal investment and significantly grew monthly sales.
