BRIEF

The challenge was to open the world of Heineken to a new batch of Singaporean consumers. Research showed that there was a growing business problem with new imported beers from microbreweries that were now entering the Singapore market. Leveraging the upcoming world cup, Heineken had a chance to re-establish itself as one of the most recognised beers in the world (192 countries.)

Global Tagline: Open Your World

STRATEGY:

  • Creative Strategy

To engage our consumer with the Heineken brand a contest was developed to challenge our Singaporean consumers with a test of their general world knowledge of geography and social graces. This online contest asked consumers to identify a city in a picture and match it with the appropriate toast.

Moscow = Za Vasche Zdarovje!

Japan = Kanpai!

Amsterdam = Proost!

Monoco = A La Votre!

 If you answered correctly, you would be asked to enter your name and phone number to redeem a Heineken Pint. Once we captured that data, the winner would be sent an electronic coupon via SMS that they could redeem at a participating Heineken retailer.

  • Microsite

The solution used a combination of traditional advertising, Facebook advertising, and display advertising to drive consumers to a dynamic microsite to conduct the contest.

  • Target Audience

The target is Singaporean men, premium beer drinkers, with a worldly outlook. Always looking to enrich their lives with knowledge and experience.

Cultural insight: Singaporeans love to ace a test. Any test of knowledge. Especially when the reward is an ice cold Heineken as a free giveaway.

  • Facebook Ads

Targeted Facebook ads, Display Advertising and Out of Home Media like transit advertising.

RESULTS:

For a market as small as Singapore, we drew in more than 3000 participants.

1/3 of these participants did redeem their free pints from the outlets which in turn drive footfall for Heineken Trade partners and drive up the revenue for them.

Further results included a fresh list of consumers that we will now include in our future CRM efforts and marketing campaigns.
