Description
People are used to finding hidden fees in everything—from vacation rentals to their wireless bills. In a new campaign, Cricket Wireless and advertising agency ARGONAUT use some comedically pixelated cartoon characters to show how they “bare all” in their costs.
In “Cricket Bares All,” the blurred treatment of “private parts” for characters who don’t even wear pants is a fun, tongue-in-cheek approach to Cricket’s transparency. Cricket includes everything upfront, unlike other wireless carriers that tack on taxes and fees after the advertised price. Further solidifying the value they provide to consumers.
“People have become so used to hidden fees and deception with pricing that it’s almost shocking when someone is upfront and honest,” says Hemant Anant Jain, Head of Creative at ARGONAUT. “When you have nothing to hide, it’s easy to be out and proud about it.”
