Outsized product sampling marketing tour taps supermarkets and streets
De Wafelbakkers, the frozen pancake company, wanted to get away from boring in-store product sampling.
Their creative agency, Shared Vision Marketing, conceived a head-turning, integrated product sampling strategy.
The centerpiece was a unique product sampling vehicle to create an undeniable presence wherever it showed up.
At supermarkets it was activated outside entrances, engaging people with brand activities and a BOGO coupon.
In cities, the mobile sampling team engaged people on public sidewalks, near farmer's markets, outside stadiums, and at festivals.
The product sampled was a packaged frozen pancake that required special cold storage, transport, and logistics.
Influencers were integrated throughout the campaign, including 'De Wafelbakkers to the Rescue' special delivery to their homes.
A De Wafelbakkers promoted the sampling on social beforehand and in real-time to extend brand marketing reach and let people know find where where to get hooked up with pancakes.
The De Wafelbakkers' experiential product sampling tour engaged thousands of people, and created tens of thousands of social media impressions in Los Angeles.
It was so successful the initiative was extended to Atlanta, making a true mobile marketing tour.
