ADT's New 'RealProtection' Campaign is Heartwarming
Grace Mahas — August 27, 2019 — Marketing
ATD, the American company that provides electronic security, fire protection, and other related alarm monitoring services, recently launched the new 'RealProtection' campaign that uses storytelling to appeal to consumers. The new marketing initiative will roll out on television, digital ads, social media, in addition to media takeovers in select cities.
The 'RealProtection' campaign asks consumers "what do you want to protect," which is then answered by the commercial that shows pets, children, loved ones, music collections, tiny houses, and rare car collections. The timing of the ad coincides with the brand's shifted identity and a newly designed website that features customizable security solutions.
ATD's newly revised marketing tactics show the brand's desire to shift from a "home security provider" to delivering "human protection."
