The ‘It’s Time’ campaign of PLDT HOME Bro combined the creative use of technology with an adept understanding of consumer behavior online.  With the insight that people tend to miss out on things due to their hectic schedules, the team created time-sensitive banner ads that display the time of day while showing potential customers the type of content they could be enjoying if they subscribe to PLDT HOME Bro.
