The Program team would like to share the responses from the September 20th AdBites: Respecting the Remix: How to Surprise The Unsurprise-able Generation?
At every event we encourage all attendees to fill out a survey to help our committee understand where we are succeeding, and in which areas we can improve. We hope you enjoy and we look forward to seeing you at the next event!
We heard the secrets to surprising the unsurprised-able generation from Molly Griffin and Brandon Painter of Barkley-Kansas City during our AdBites professional development luncheon on September 20th. Molly and Brandon shared how they leveraged Twitter and a next-generation pop-up shop at SXSW to generate over 23 million social media impressions for their client, Hershey’s TAKE5 Bar. We gained insight on how they modernizing the trick-or-treat experience and they discussed how their strategy elevated the Uber model to bring surprise vehicles to riders and remixed the idea of candy packaging by providing party-goers with a DJ toolset on their TAKE5 boxes.
Barkley developed a remix brand strategy for TAKE5 targeting the millennials’ hearts. Molly And Brandon’s presentation was rated “excellent” by a room filled with Omaha advertising, marketing and communication professionals.
Here are the quotes from those who attended and filled out a survey:
