INTRODUCTION
Back in the day, Thais used to take care of each other and extended courtesy of kindness. Nowadays, Thais have become more materialistic and self-focused, focusing on wealth and social status as their main priority in life. Thai Life Insurance intended to reinforce the brand belief; ‘Value of Life’. It is about how good you are, how you value others, how you care for others that is the real value of life. Its mission is to ‘Champion goodness in every Thai’s lives’. The task was delivered by the Thai Good Stories campaign, with the brand championing the goodness in society. This is done by consistently co-creating emotional contents and connections with the brand and positively inspiring a better community for a better world. This campaign made Thai Life Insurance become Thai’s life partner, a brand consumers can truly trust for wanting the best for them by championing goodness in society every day until discrimination is reduced.
