Following a competitive review, Optimum, a brand of Altice USA (NYSE: ATUS), announced today it has selected New York-based O1, a Publicis Power of One solution, as its Creative, Media, PR and Production agency of record (AOR), effective immediately. The announcement follows a thorough review to select an agency partner who will drive further brand growth for Optimum and its suite of powerful connectivity products, including internet, mobile, TV, and phone services for residential and business customers.

Now with a new partner in O1, we are set to showcase the progress we are making and ensure it is resonating with our customers as we become the connectivity provider of choice in every community we serve.”

Working closely with Optimum’s internal teams, O1 will leverage its capabilities in brand building, creative commerce, data-driven communications, influencer marketing, public relations and more to enhance brand awareness and consumer consideration across Optimum’s 21-state footprint.

“In order to reach our customers where they are – in their local communities – we needed a partner that understands how to reach and resonate with all of our markets and audiences, and that was O1,” said Lisa Anselmo, Executive Vice President, Communications at Optimum. “We could not be more excited to partner with O1 to drive strong and unique storytelling opportunities for Optimum by advancing the amazing local work we are doing in our communities on all levels – nationally, regionally and locally.”

“With creative ideas backed by data, technology, media, brand reputation and production, together we will build a brand platform for connecting customers to the Optimum brand in meaningful ways,” said Nicole Souza, Chief Marketing Officer, Saatchi & Saatchi. “O1 has matched the best expertise – and experts – at Publicis Groupe to partner with Optimum in creating the next chapter for the brand through a fully integrated team driving awareness and acquisition nationally and locally.”
