The Unexpected Reroute.
stc turned its stores' Google Maps listings into an ad channel. People searching for a branch found a comedian in the listing photos telling them to skip the trip and use the mystc app.

التحدي
Many Saudi customers still preferred to walk into a branch for services the mystc app already offered. stc wanted to move them to self-service, in line with the country's digitisation push.
الفكرة
Google Maps doesn't sell ad space, but store listings show user content when someone expands a location. Comedian Ahmad Al Muqrin filmed short pieces inside busy stc stores, and the clips were uploaded to those listings and picked to sit at the top. Anyone looking up a nearby branch got intercepted with a nudge to do it in the app instead.
