About the Work

72% of Germans spend their holidays abroad. How do we make them consider traveling within Germany using German Rail? With a simple side-by-side comparison: One side shows a beautiful international travel destination; the other, a look-alike destination in Germany. Our message: why pay for an expensive flight, when one can experience the same for 19 Euros? Data and technology made the campaign even more relevant on social media: Through Facebook-data, we identified target groups interested in specific destinations. An algorithm found look-alike pictures on Getty Images. Geotargeting pinpoints the closest airport to each person and the travel destination, while a search engine determines the cheapest flight price – in real-time. Combining this data, targeted video-ads made travel enthusiasts an unbeatable offer: A train ride for just 19 Euros instead of an expensive flight. Completely automated. In infinite variations. Turning a unique visual idea into a relevant, real-time social media price comparison
