Kit Kat debated whether to update its “Have a break” platform or to abandon it. This APG Grand Prix winning campaign from 2003 is about the peril of becoming so ubiquitous that you’re no longer noticed. About all the brand signals looking strong, while profitability was in decline. Fern Miller, the planner on the account, at then JWT, shares the journey and the pivot.
