100 moments, 100 gifts, 100 smiles: British Columbia and Coca Cola Guerrilla Vending Machine


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWbQtK4N8cM&feature=player_embedded

A pleasant surprise for the people in San Francisco passing through this Plaza on May 17th. A huge vending machine standing at the middle of the place like some sort of ” Modern Troy Horse”. On the outside, nothing but a slight description of what was to come: 100 moments, brought by British Columbia. Finally, a courageous person brakes the ice and tries the machine’s purpose extracting its content. To the people’s surprise, the result of this action was more than anything they might have expected, it was a smile and a moment that will remain in their memory for a long time.

This campaign is brilliant in our opinion because they perfectly express the experience side of BC’s travel offering.
They first communicate to people what is really there to do (100 moments) and make a strong call to action by providing the necessary “hardware”(100 gifts inside the vending machine) to enjoy the commented experience to the fullest and make a true positive impression on the people’s minds (100 smiles). This is true brand positioning and call to action in a very targeted & segmented local audience + 110 thousand views in youtube.

What can BC do to make this more viral? This is one of the best vending machine’s action we can recall so far. Similar to CocaCola’s Happiness machine and latest happiness truck: http://www.creativeguerrillamarketing.com/guerrilla-marketing/coca-colas-happiness-truck-guerrilla-marketing-campaign/

Can happiness be sold? I believe it can be given, and some brands are doing it very well… selling more than a product, a moment in people’s lives.

I (Blank) New York: “Follow Your Heart” new summer campaign!


http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=fBOK0r7rLvc

I love New York and I love its new campaign: I (blank) NY. As a follow up campaign of the best place marketing campaign ever made, the State of New York is replacing the “Love” with “Adventures!”

The idea behind the campaign is to promote the State of New York as a whole attractive and innovative destination that can offer both the National and International traveller much more than the classic Manhattan city brake holiday.

The campaign really gets the message across: You can express your love for NY by doing the activities and experiences that you would like to live and that the State can offer.

What would you recommend to do in the State of New York?
