Turning it up to 11: launching a brand-new licence for music in the UK

Challenge

Everyone knows that to drive, you need a licence. And if you have a television, you need a licence for that, too. But music licensing isn’t as widely understood. Our challenge was to design a brand for a new UK music licence, from PPL PRS, that would become as ubiquitous as the TV licence.

Solution

TheMusicLicence. Turn it up!

We wanted to celebrate all the ways that music can improve business - just by adding music, you can take all manner of things up a notch - productivity, atmosphere, morale, creativity. This transformative power of music informed our proposition for TheMusicLicence: turn it up! We created a brand that was playful and engaging, but with the gravitas to deliver authenticity and confidence.

BEAR have been dedicated, agile and strategic throughout our journey together creating and launching PPL PRS and TheMusicLicence. I'm looking forward to collaborating with them further to continue marketing our new product.
