TRASH TO TREASURE RADIO SOAPIE PROGRAM 1
Trash to Treasure just love to hate each other and wise each other up about ways and means of recycling. Listen here to one hilarious episode.
ONCE UPON A TIME
Our brief was to inspire behavior change in the realm of household Separation at Source and educate consumers of the practicalities and benefits of recycling and the recycling economy.
BRAND STORY
Trash to Treasure is a recycling campaign aimed at lower LSM’s and driven by a 12-part radio series. Trash and Treasure educate through their incessant and hilarious arguments on air. Broadcast weekly on Alex FM, Jozi FM and Theta FM.
SYNERGY TALE
Separation at Source functionalities were demonstrated door-to-door. Creative recycling workshops were enacted at many events showing residents of all ages how to turn trash into treasure.
HAPPILY EVER AFTER
The campaign ran for three years during the agency’s tenure on the account. During that time, recycling habits were improved in the targeted areas.
