Idea

Imagine this: A brand with a goal of increasing OTT streaming service subscriptions is blocked by the largest broadcasters and publishers due to competitive reasons. In addition, the brand desired to reach sports fans at a time when live sports were scarce due to Covid-19 impact.

Solution

Bring Sports to Canadians with a new weekly video podcast series “More Football”, offering fans what they want and teasing the value of subscribing to DAZN’s platform by showcasing key live matchups, pre-produced content and more!

With the goal of benefiting sports fans, we worked tirelessly with our partner to build a video podcast from the ground up. This included months of co-ordination on layouts with weekly alignment on discussion topics and utilizing DAZN’s sports catalogue for each episode.
