Amazon.ae has rolled out its latest “It’s on Prime” platform and introduced a regional promotional campaign specifically targeting the UAE. The campaign was developed by Saatchi & Saatchi Middle East (ME) and consists of three new promo films and a range of social media ads, highlighting the variety of ways an Amazon Prime membership can make customers’ lives easier.

The films use a storytelling formula to promote benefits such as Free delivery, Amazon Fresh, and Prime Video, and feature a diverse collection of customers facing everyday challenges that can be solved by Amazon Prime.

Bruno Barbosa, Senior Creative Director for Saatchi & Saatchi ME, noted: “The biggest challenge was to find relevant and fresh insights that relate to the melting pot of nationalities across the UAE and craft stories that showcase all the benefits the brand has to offer without compromising on smooth and lighthearted storytelling”.

The first film shows a young woman moving out of her parents’ home. While the mother finds new ways to reach out as she misses her daughter, the young woman discovers a flair for cooking using Amazon Fresh and surprises her with a home-cooked dish.

In the second film, we see the day-to-day life of a couple with busy schedules and watch them find ways to connect. Amazon services help them buy items to make mornings easier, share home-cooked meals, and enjoy time watching their favorite shows.

The third film depicts the life of a family with a newborn baby. Amazon’s fast and free shipping helps them find simple ways to care for their baby while helping their eldest son connect with his younger brother.

The campaign is about sharing the various ways members can make the most of their Prime membership [and] we are proud to have collaborated with the Saatchi & Saatchi team to bring this vision to life.”
