Background

Taj Misr Developments, one of Egypt’s premier real estate developers, aimed to generate unprecedented buzz around their brand using an unconventional approach. Known for their dependability and timely project delivery since 2006, Taj Misr wanted to make a bold statement: “We Don’t Kid Around”.
They partnered with us to execute a two-phased influencer campaign — a mystery teaser, followed by a creative reveal — designed to intrigue the public and elevate brand perception.

What was the challenge?

  • Breaking Through the Noise: Cairo’s billboards are overly saturated with real estate ads. Taj Misr needed a campaign that would cut through the clutter.
  • Building Curiosity Without Oversharing: The teaser phase had to spark genuine conversation while keeping the brand anonymous.
  • Seamless Influencer Activation: The brand had to ensure that 15+ influencers delivered unified but distinct storytelling while staying aligned with Taj Misr’s premium image.

Objectives
  • Generating Speculation & Buzz: To initiate a wave of public curiosity through witty, mysterious billboard messaging.
  • Maximizing Digital Reach: To leverage influencers to amplify visibility across social media.
  • Elevating Brand Perception: To position Taj Misr as bold, creative, and forward-thinking.
  • Driving Engagement: To inspire audience interaction through polls, guesses, and comments.
Strategy
  • Teaser Phase: Over a dozen influencers were activated to create Instagram stories reacting to the mysterious “We Don’t Kid Around” billboards spotted across Cairo. They filmed organic, unscripted content asking followers to guess who was behind the teasing tone — sparking speculation that ranged from tech giants to entertainment brands.
  • Reveal Phase: Two weeks later, the same influencers posted collaborative reels with @TajMisrDevelopments, revealing that the creative mind behind the teasing campaign was Taj Misr all along. Influencers educated their audiences on the brand's legacy, highlighted recent projects like Dejoya 4 and the upcoming New Sphinx mega development, and praised the company for its bold, out-of-the-box approach.
