Background
The MAS Global Sale Campaign was conducted in November 2010 in Malaysia. It aimed to reach subscribers aged between 25 and 40, who had indicated ‘travel’ as a category of interest.

The agency engaged target audiences by SMS, asking them to choose a favourite destination. After they replied, they received an SMS indicating the promotional fare for their choice destination as well as the Malaysia Airlines website for information and booking.

Results
Achieving a 21.5% response rate, this campaign surpassed the average performance benchmark of 8% in similar campaigns. The high engagement rate directed greater awareness to the competitive fares offered and the main website.
