Transcript

Is no doubt one of the best marketing campaigns ever. Nescafe did a campaign where they locked a thousand coffee mugs across Croatia. They knew people loved getting free mugs with their coffee, but instead of just giving them away as an offer, they lock them across the country at different places each secured with a four digit lock. To receive the passcode you'd have to check-in on Facebook with Nescafe at the mugs location, enter the code and you get the mug. But this was not enough so Nescafe opened coffee shops near those locations so you can trade that lock for a free cup of coffee. This campaign no only skyrocketed their sales better also made their Facebook page viral.
