Double the Strategy
Stealth developed a two-part strategy to shout all the great improvements that RCN made, followed by launching a brand new look and feel for the company. The entire brand was refreshed to signal positive change and distance the brand from past negative baggage.

Tactical Execution
A Whole New Look
Stealth recreated the face of RCN and developed new messaging, then launched an integrated multi-media campaign (TV, radio, outdoor, print) to build awareness and used online and direct mail campaigns to promote response.
