Synopsis:
Smirnoff Raw Tea needed to make a big splash, with
very little money, in a Northeast test market during the peak summer months. So
we utilized an alternative channel: viral video. To make it resonate, we decided
to celebrate the people who summered in our test market through a hip hop video.
"Join The Tea Partay" was born. Our insight was dead-on because the video had
more than 2 million hits in its first five months on YouTube and has appeared in
The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Good Morning America and CNN... to
name only a few.
