But consumer expectations have been shifting rapidly. They demand more convenience and personalization than ever before, expecting brands to meet – and exceed – their needs online and on the go. With estimates that quick-service restaurants will be 54% digital by 2025, KFC needed an agency partner to help bring their southern hospitality into the digital age.
APPROACH
From innovative drive-thru experiences to a completely revamped website and mobile app, we aimed to help KFC sell more finger-licking chicken by fusing the charm of the Colonel with the speed that modern consumers crave. We used insights from consumer research to overhaul the brand’s entire digital approach.
This meant developing new strategies for their online menu architecture and photography, elevating their brand with copy in the Colonel’s unique voice, and delivering both creative and technological support for their new best-in-class experience. We also created a dynamic design system for a future-proof platform that could scale their brand consistently across all channels.
They tasked us with crafting an industry-leading customer experience, both in-person and online, that would embody the warm, irreverent personality of their brand while pushing them ahead of their quick-service competitors.
