OPPORTUNITY
Leverage seasonal, limited-time-only flavor fanatics’ passion. Mobilize this powerful force and create demand for Sierra Mist.
THE IDEA
Re-Gifters Anonymous was based on research revealing that the Sierra Mist audience is a creative bunch, and re-gifting was repeatedly mentioned as a ‘new tradition’ they practiced.
Over the course of a six-week program on Break.com and Facebook, the Cranberry Splash community embraced a series of humorous video confessions, along with an online application that allowed viewers to try re-gifting themselves. Cranberry Splash branded gifts, offered for free in the Facebook gift shop for a limited time, spread like wildfire. The application allowed participants to upload their photos and obscure their identities by applying a black bar across their eyes just like the shamed confessors in the video series.
For an added twist, a national sweepstakes promoted the chance to win the ultimate re-gift-proof gift — a $500 American Express Gift Card.
THE MOTIVE
Celebrate the creativity
and desire that millennials have for creating their own new Holiday traditions.
