Philosophie | On February 18, 2016 Jamba Juice got an unexpected visit from international pop star Adele. But this wasn’t a regular smoothie order. It was a hidden camera prank for The Ellen Degeneres Show. The highlight was when Adele said there was something similar to Jamba Juice in England called “Swishy Chug,” which was a made-up name. The video was posted on Ellentube in the morning and would air on national Television in the afternoon. So we had to act quickly. Solution We came back with a prank of our own and created the Swishy Chug Brand. By the time the segment aired on The Ellen Show, we had built the brand from scratch including a logo, a website, a tagline, a look & feel, 5 signature smoothies, and even a Twitter account with a brand voice. When the Internet lit up with conversations about Jamba Juice and Swishy Chug, we were ready with a team of community managers to keep the conversation going and promote our smoothies. |
Problem | How do we respond in real time to a prank and turn it into an opportunity to promote our smoothies without a budget? |
