Renault: The first car carried by likes

A social interactive live stream on Facebook connects the online and offline world in the newest social media campaign of Renault Netherlands. Online likes measured the passion for the new Renault Clio. Offline, a heaver construction with the car on one side and a Facebook box on the other, showed the weight of this passion. In two weeks, the Facebook fans did succeed and showed that there is enough passion in the Netherlands for the new Renault Clio to carry the car!

How much passion do the Dutch people have for the new Renault Clio?
The passion for the new Renault model is measured by means of a heaver construction with on one side the new Renault Clio and on the other side the Facebook box. Facebook fans show their passion for the car by giving a physical like. Through a social interactive live stream the fans see how their online like is thrown offline in the Facebook box and how the weight in the Facebook box slowly increases.

The first car carried by likes!
Renault fans shared their passion for the new Renault Clio en masse. In two weeks more than 16.000 like thumbs were placed in the Facebook box and there was enough passion gathered to carry the new Renault Clio. For the first time a car was carried by the likes of a Facebook community. At that final moment the live stream had already over 60.000 views and even reached the homepage of Ustream. During the campaign Renault welcomed more than 12.000 new fans.

StartupSeeds: Clean Up the Internet

URL: http://goo.gl/1XJuW

A new browser plug-in suggests alternatives to offensive words on social networks. A short while ago BBR Saatchi&Saatchi met with 15 teenagers from the StartupSeeds organization – a program for nurturing technology-oriented youth, in order to try and find a solution to a national (and worldwide) problem – cyber-bullying: boycotts, harassments and offensive messages causing dozens of children emotional damage which in many cases pushes them to end their lives tragically. Out of dozens of ideas, we chose the one which addressed the offending party, the cyber bully, just before he writes the offensive message on platforms like Facebook, blogs and forum: We have created a Chrome browser plug-in that detects offensive words, and replaces them with positive ones.

Nike: RUN Like ME

Brief: To launch the Nike LunarGlide+ 4 shoe in Japan, we wanted to illustrate the product benefit of helping one ‘run longer.’

Solution: We created Nike RUN Like ME, a unique interactive activation that merged Facebook, Nike+ and real world running. It was asocial running experiment where a real runner, Joseph Tame, would run 10 more meters every time the campaign’s Facebook Like button was pressed. Nike+ GPS was used to track each run along the way. The routes ran created live GPS art using the streets of Tokyo. The morepeople engaged on RUN Like ME, the more he ran, the more interesting his ran became and the more people talked about it.

Result: The campaign went beyond Facebook and to the streets where our runner met his fans, receiving both online and offline support for his efforts. News of his running was also picked up by Japan’s number one morning news program. In 30 days, our runner ran an unbelievable 42,000 meters and proved that the Nike LunarGlide+ 4 really does make you run longer.

Amnesty International: Censored Tweet

Internacional Amnesty and DM9Rio launches “Censored Tweet”

Anistia Internacional (International Amnesty), present in nearly 150 countries for over 50 years, once again offers an office in Brazil after ten years. The organization, which has chosen on Human Rights as a work focus, has the support of DM9Rio in its communication. In Brazil, the organization will undertake a broad effort to mobilize citizens in defense of Human Rights and, in its first major action, will address the theme “freedom of expression”.

The yearnings for freedom of expression have been highlighted by the Arab Spring uprisings and by the mobilizations and disputes involving the new information technologies – in 2012, the United Nations started to consider Internet access as a Human Right. But censorship remains a problem in several countries. How to call people’s attention to the subject in this new era of online activism? Anistia Internacional (International Amnesty), in partnership with DM9Rio, launches “Censored Tweet” – www.tweetcensurado.com.br.

It is a mechanism in which people can tweet black bars of censorship, as if the tweets were being banned in your timeline. At the end of “censored tweet” there will be a non-identified link encouraging followers to click and unravel the action. That will also invite internet users to join the movement by creating their own “censored tweets” automatically. The concept is: “In many countries, this is what happens to those who try to express themselves.” The project’s page is available in five different languages ??and automatically recognizes the country where it is being accessed from.

Sprite: Minalakhir

In the past three years Sprite has been so quiet in the market to the point of non-existence. We were tasked to bring it back to life, in full force as a no bullshit brand – in the heavily censored KSA. We did that through comedy, by creating a platform that’s as refreshingly honest as our brand.

Sprite Minalakhir was born, with a 5-minute video series taking an honest spin on life. These videos were broadcasted on YouTube, the Minalakhir-website, Facebook page, and Twitter account.

Once Minalakhir was launched, the young Saudis were quickly following our series after relating to the refreshing honest perspective to their daily social struggles and life. And because Saudis feel more comfortable expressing themselves online where restrictions are decreased, they were encouraged to contribute in discussions on our Facebook page, Twitter account, and Minalakhir website.

The introduction of customized competitions with every episode proved to be a big success. Tailored questions were designed to encourage viewers to engage and express themselves around a certain topic, or simply have fun by interacting with the video to find hidden prizes.

We grew from only 53 fans on our Facebook page at the beginning of the campaign to around 400,000 Active fans, with over 6,000 participations in the competitions alone. The show went from almost getting canceled, to hitting over 5.5 million views… and counting.

McDonald’s: Cocio Summer Shake Up!

In 2012 McDonald’s introduced their idea of a perfect summer mash up: A chocolate milk / milkshake hybrid called Cocio Summer Shake. We were briefed to make a banner campaign. But challenged the client to go further than that – and let users create their own “summer mash up” in the form of a musical track. This allowed us to use the radio media in a different way – by making the airwaves available for playing user generated content. It also gave us the opportunity to make “Cocio Summer Shake” a social experience rather than just another product promotion.

M6 mobile: #wouldn’t it rock if

M6 Mobile is one of the mobile leaders for teenagers in France. In 2012, they launched a campaign depicting the younger generation being able to change their world into a better, funnier and more entertaining place, thanks to their mobile carrier.

Challenge: How to promote this message on the web and really connect with their communities ?
Idea: Wouldn’t it be cool if we just make their world better for real ? With Instagram, users take a photo of everything they find boring, ugly, sad, uncool, and propose how you would change it, improve it or enhance it. Then, they share it with the world using the hashtag #wouldn’t it rock if. If the post becomes popular, we make it happen! In the following 2 months, we made the dreams of M6 Mobile fans come true, bringing to life the contributions that got the most likes. We wrote, produced, and broadcast 1 episode per week, keeping the campaign totally real-time and intimately connected to our fans.

A giant graffiti painted on a wall, a cool skateboard video on the snow, a comedy, a sports program, a zombie movie and we even sent someone to the moon. Sometimes it was for real, and sometimes it was fiction but each time, the fan was the hero of the content. From a traditional campaign message, we came up with a real-time production of cool contents, intimately linked to the real everyday concerns of our fans.

TAC: How to plan a funeral

URL: http://pinterest.com/planafuneral/

In September 2012 the Transport Accident Commission used Pinterest to teach unsuspecting girlfriends and mothers, ‘How to plan a funeral’.
In contrast to the many happy occasions women plan on Pinterest this would hopefully catch them by surprise.
The funerals would be for their young men, who are involved in 6 times more fatal crashes than young women. Speeding is the primary contributor to these fatalities.
The campaign encouraged women to share the message, “I’d hate to plan your funeral. Slowing down won’t kill you.”

Exito Dental Floss: Flossbook

For a long time the poor visibility and interaction of Facebook ads has been criticized. So, Sancho BBDO created a “banner” that gets itself in between the pictures of food in restaurant´s fanpages,
promoting how efficient Exito´s dental floss is. Some of the pages where you can see the action.

We wanted to give notoriety to our brand, Éxito Dental Floss, with a few ads and a very low budget. So, we decided to put it in a place where everyday there is more people, Facebook.

The Challenge:
83% of people recognize that never have clicked on Facebook ads. So, we had to create a message that was out of conventionalism, some message that was outstanding.

The idea:
We created “Flossbook”, a “banner” that took advantage of Facebook timeline and, in this case, it acted as a dental floss, getting between the content that restaurants’ fan pages publish. A literal translation of the product benefit, because we were between thousand of dishes.

Results:
An increase of 30% in visits of the Éxito’s website
1.000 fan pages impacted with a range of more than 900,000 people on Facebook.
More than 200.000 likes on fan pages.

But the most important thing, we achieved to increase visits to our page and we did it so much better than a Facebook ad, but without paying for it.

Malmö Hardware Store: ToolPool

Malmö Hardware Store needed an idea to be able to compete with the giant home improvement chains that are taking over the market. We learned that the stores main earnings comes from supplies, not from expensive tools. So we created ToolPool. It works just like a carpool, but with tools. And it’s for free. All we ask in return is that you share our message on Facebook. During the very first month, ToolPool received extensive media coverage, over 600 members and sales in the store increased by 25%.
