When Sony wanted to raise its profile in the headphones space, the technology giant turned to OUTFRONT for a transit campaign promoting its LinkBuds Fit x Olivia Rodrigo product partnership. Did Sony’s ads break through the clutter and noise? With the help of our independent third-party measurement partner MFour, we quantified the impact the campaign made on awareness, consideration, intent, and other key brand metrics.
