Papa? Nicole! Rekindling an old flame for Renault

Client: Renault UK
We unlocked it by digging into the past, and unearthing a distinctive asset in Papa Nicole that wasn’t just famous and unique, but packed full of latent affection. Rather than simply bring it back we told a new chapter in the story, in partnership with three real-life Nicoles, each named after the iconic Renault character. Their tales, shared with the world on Father’s Day, celebrated their enduring father-daughter love, and their indelible connection to Renault. Partnering with media owners and social platforms allowed us to speak to two generations at once: Papas and Nicoles. And helped us develop bespoke creative which captured their attention, grew affection and relevance, and significantly increased consideration and sales. Reminding us that partnerships, whether through birth or in business, can provide a basis for powerful storytelling and enduring love.
