Positioning - Moments of joy, each new pop-up message from an expected person or a like gives us a minute moment of joy. Exactly the same as a bite-off piece of cookie or a piece of candy eaten gives it. Therefore, we combined the moments of consuming Candy Gold with the joy of a pop-up icon with a like. Like is mainly associated with the heart and the red-pink color of the logo organically characterizes it. Corporate slogan – Every day is joy.

A very complex category in which the key competitors are international players with many years of experience. We need to create a unique brand that reflects the new trends of teenagers as much as possible. Taking this into account, we immediately took the focus on outrageous and provocative – otherwise we simply would not stand out against strong competitors.
