Using a Custom Competition to Drive Brand Advocacy, Engage Customers, and Drive New Customers to Trial.

The Brief

With winter approaching, much of Australia in lockdown at the height of Covid, and homecooks experimenting more than ever before, Vegeta wanted to drive first time trial use amongst new customers.

Our Solution

A leaderboard style competition supported by the right media mix.

We created a consumer competition that used social media functions to help drum up audience engagement by incentivising our fans and rewarding them for taking social actions that would achieve Vegeta’s objectives.

Based on the difficulty of the engagement or behaviour that we asked our fans to do, they were able to accumulate points in the competition – the more points you accumulated, the higher your chance of winning.

A competition microsite was built following 3 principles:

  • Motivate our Audience Build a prize pack that appeals to our Fans – a Vegeta Hamper stocked with all the kitchen essentials.
  • Enable Ease of Entry Drive audience engagement with Vegeta by using our brand codes and creating a series of simple prompts and instructions for our fans to follow.
  • Trigger Behaviour Ensure that we can continue to incentivise our audience by driving repeatable actions with further rewards.
