Brands are always talking about how they can leverage the power of social
networks, like Facebook. Studiocom has created an opportunity for Dunkin'
Donuts to explore a new way to engage fans.
BOSTON, June 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Dunkin' Donuts and Studiocom, its digital
agency of record since 2007, launched a new experience for Facebook fans on
their Fan Page (www.dunkindonuts.com/keepitcoolatta). In
conjunction with the nationwide $1.99 Coolatta(R) offer and the reintroduction
of Vanilla Bean Coolatta(R), Studiocom crafted the unique daily giveaway where
fans "Grab It, Snap It, Post It, Win It".
Always looking for new opportunities to provide Dunkin' Donuts with better ways
to engage with their customers through social media, Studiocom came up with the
"Keep It Coolatta" sweepstakes in order to create excitement around
the product, generate awareness and reward fans for participating.
"We are always looking for ways to engage our loyal users and this
promotion provides one more great way for our fans to have fun with and
advocate for the Dunkin' Donuts brand. With promotions like "Keep It
Coolatta" and our recent "Create Dunkin's Next Donut"
competition, we are able to achieve engagement on a very large scale because of
our large and very passionate fan base," said Cynthia Ashworth, VP of
Consumer Engagement at Dunkin' Donuts.
John Gonnella, Studiocom's Creative Director added, "Our goal is to
continually create simple, authentic connections between the loyal community on
Facebook and the Dunkin' Donuts brand. The Coolatta promotion gives DD fans a
creative way to capture themselves with a Coolatta and then share the images to
win great prizes and be a part of the brand. In the end, it all comes down to
Dunkin' Donuts' passionate fans and rewarding them for their loyalty."
Studiocom has helped Dunkin' Donuts take a leadership role in the world of
social media and explore solutions for it to best work for the brand. Dunkin'
Donuts foray into the world of social began with a campaign on YouTube and has
followed with an active presence on Facebook and Twitter
(@dunkindonuts) and the recent, successful "Create
Dunkin's Next Donut" contest.
"Coolatta is another fun and creative example of how Dunkin' Donuts takes
traditional CRM philosophies and translates them to emerging channels, like
Facebook," said Steve Ustaris, Media Director at Studiocom.
"Together, we've create social media programs that manage the different
levels of the customer relationship. Dunkin' Donuts interacts with them, reward
them and, as in the Coolatta program, enable them to advocate on behalf of the
brand, if they choose."
The "Keep It Coolatta" giveaway runs through June 24th. To be
eligible for daily prizes, fans are asked to take a photo of themselves posing
with a Coolatta beverage, make it their profile picture, post it to the wall of
the Dunkin' Donuts Fan Page and add the caption "#CoolattaGiveaway".
Prizes include items to make people's summer a little cooler, including air
conditioners, iPhone, JetBlue tickets, flatscreen TV, KangaROOS(R) and more. In
addition to the daily winner, a fan of the day will be selected to be the face
of "Keep It Coolatta" and will be featured as the Dunkin' Donuts
Facebook profile image. Studiocom partnered with Dunkin Donuts promotions
