Friendly's - High 5
Integrated Campaign
Friendly's is a 76 year old dining chain that had simply grown old and off the consideration list of the next generation of moms and dads. They used to be the place to celebrate anything and everything with family and friends—the fact is they still are. We just needed to remind people of that and get them back in the door. So we set about owning the ulitmate celebratory gesture: The High 5, and made it synonymous with Friendly's brand.
