kelloggs-krave.jpg

Para não só chamar a atenção dos jovens britânicos, mas também engajar eles com o lançamento dos cereais matinais Kave (com recheio de chocolate), a Kellogg’s do Reino Unido lançou um serviço online para incentivar as pessoas a falar sobre a novidade, e recompensar elas por isso.

O site Krave Choc Exchange, lançado na última segunda-feira, é integrado ao Facebook, e centraliza uma competição onde os participantes concorrem a prêmios com ‘choc chunks‘, uma espécie de moeda virtual que pode ser trocada por gifts de verdade.

Os usuários podem adquirir ‘choc chunks‘, fazendo uma variedade de coisas, como subindo fotos deles ao lado de um box de Krave, ou alterar em seu status o nome ou sobrenome para Krave, por exemplo.

Quantos mais ‘choc chunks‘ o usuário obtém, mais gifts ele pode adquirir, incluindo ingressos para shows, vouchers de iTunes e kits exclusivos da Kellogg’s Krave.

Uma semana após o lançamento da campanha Krave Choc Exchange, a fan page de Kellogg’s Krave havia ganho 40 mil novos membros. Tá bom ou quer mais?
