Fifth Third has undertaken a full-scale campaign targeting a key strategic segment to the bank: Hispanics. The campaign, entitled “Las cosas que hacemos por los suenos,” (“The things we do for dreams”) plays with different takes on “The American Dream” — owning a home, taking a family vacation, etc. Each piece offers tips regarding how to make the dream a reality through proper financial planning.
Print ads use the time-tested “fill-in-the-blank” approach: “The things we do for __________ .” Each ad includes a poetic first-person testimonial, a brief copy block and the URL for the bank’s Spanish-version website, espanol.53.com.
“Baby”
“Piggy Bank”
