Let’s all share our fun stuff !

This is the plan of the document
Before the examples, a quick introduction to « branded
entertainment » with some great charts and insights.

1- Brands as fun destinations
2- Branded fun for new brand fans
3- Fun campaigns to promote fun contents
4- The new brand to fans relationship
5- Live events for real time experiences
6- Data to spot fun insights on consumers

Why is this plan ?
Firstly, we are all used to seeing brands sponsoring entertainment as a means to get
their logo and messaging in front of consumer eyeballs now brands are becoming
destination sites and platforms for entertainment, in and of themselves.
Secondly, branded entertainment challenges brands to deliver a more enriching
experience that consumers want yet communicate effectively what the brand values
or the product benefits. Therefore it requires brands to create high quality branded
contents, and not just sponsor an event, advertise within the programs, or create an
ephemeral buzz.
Brands investing in branded entertainment don’t simply advertise on line. They use
the tools that are available to best promote their content : paid media, owned media,
earned media (all at a cost). Also because in today’s world special partnerships are
often linked to a media plan.

Why is this plan ?
4- The new brand to fans relationship
The result of all this is that brands are able to develop an enduring direct-toconsumer relationship, however the challenge is that their fan base is much wider
than their brand fans and they need people of trust within their fan communities to
establish the connection / animate the extended fan community

Communication enters a new era of real time marketing when brands comme to live
the moment people experience their contents all together at the same time !

Trust me you are going to need it to do all the above !

Brands producing fun brand
content to be activated by

right on device they choose
Consumers engaged
through time by awesome
transmedia content

Consumers are always connected but never
reachable

Source : google / ipsos (usa)

People carry an average of 2.9 devices with them.

Consumers access media content from a screen,
but it’s the one they choose


They often use other devices while watching TV
TV no longer commands full attention and 77% of TV viewers use another device at
the same time in a typical day.


They are often engaged in various activities
Social networking is a big « side » activity


To complete a task they switch between devices
90% of multiple device owners switch between screens to complete tasks,
using an average of three different combinations every day.


Traditionally, brands in a bid to capture attention
have interrupted consumers to talk about their
product. Consumer research continually highlights
that most of these marketing message are irrelevant
to their current interests and needs.

And what better way to gain permission to get someone's attention than when they are
actually looking for you. Or at least something you can help with : useful content.

Some brands embrace content marketing strategies
Content marketing has emerged as means to reach people who are continually looking
for information, entertainment or help. Brands can use content marketing to pull people
in who aren't necessarily interested in a specific product but instead meeting a needstate behind the product purchase. Content is useful, informative and – critically – nonsalesy, created to draw in consumers who have a particular lifestyle need or interest

Branded entertainment is leading the way
because that’s what consumers spend most time
doing on line after socializing We know that social media is
an important part of many
people’s lives, but it is also a
lengthy portion, as well. And
Entertainment is a big thing
when socializing.
Experian Marketing Services
released a study showing that
in the United States, 16
minutes out of every hour
online was spent on social
networking and forums,
roughly 27% of all time spent
on personal computers.
The next closest online
actions were entertainment
sites (9 minutes/hour) and
shopping (5 minutes/hour).

And entertaining TV programs are often very social
Twitter is pitching its services to television networks with Twitter Amplify which allows
networks to post short, sponsored video replays on Twitter. "Now we are able to talk
about how to make money together and how to give sponsors an interesting two-screen
approach to things," Glenn Brown, Twitter’s senior director for Amplify. It’s all part of
Twitter’s strategy to lock down the second screen.

Consumers are ok if brands entertain them !
Branded entertainment is the popular term for the increasing practice of brands creating
entertaining content to capture and maintain consumer attention for prolonged periods
of time (or at least, a little longer than those thirty second ads).
A form consumers quite appreciate (even if 24% don’t want brands to entertain them).

Edelman

However brands still have a long way to go before
branded entertainment fully works for the brand
and for consumers.

Brands don’t just post and pray.
Their digital strategy doesn’t only rely on viral !
It’s a common misconception among brands that somehow people will magically find
them. Some call it the "post and pray" strategy. To stand out, brands do the following:
PR and Influencer Outreach (earned media) : Scoring placement on a popular blog or
content site makes a difference. If people see an influencer tweet your video, or read
about it on their favorite blog, chances are they'll watch the content and share it
themselves. But don't "boil the ocean" with PR outreach. A post of your video on a
niche trade blog might make more waves than one that's hidden inside the depths of a
tier-one publication, far from surfacing on its home page.
Outstanding content (owned media) : Fewer than 1% of YouTube videos exceed 1
million views, according to recent data from TubeMogul. The cold truth is that 50% of
videos on YouTube have fewer than 1,000 views. Since there's so much content on
the site, it's easy to get lost in the mix.
Paid Placement (paid media) : The web offers a variety of ways to increase
viewership with paid placement at great value. Sometimes advertisers can target their
content fans based on age, gender, geography, keywords, search terms and
interests.

They place content at the heart of digital strategies
to engage consumers from paid to earned media

Brands invest in transmedia contents consumers
and no longer oppose TV, digital and social media
“Before, advertising on the internet could not create scale and if you were a CMO of
an FMCG company, you did all your advertising around experiences, you would
make an advert around that and you give it to a TV channel where you would have
millions of people watching it. So the thinking was ‘why use the internet?’. Suddenly
we’re consuming and creating content on our mobile devices and tablets on a bigger
scale and we are moving away from the traditional way of consuming content. There
is a change in behavior as we are always ‘on’. “What you need is someone to help
create great content that is high impact and tells good stories otherwise we don’t see
it or interact with it. “VP, Brand & Communications, AOL

Brands are not only entertaining their consumers
what they aim for is to give more voice to brand
advocates.
Research suggests that up to
80% of reach from marketing
campaigns now comes from
network amplification through
advocacy. Despite this huge
potential value, "brands are
failing at driving satisfied
customers to share in social
media," said Irfan Kamal, global
head of Data+Analytics and
Products at Social@Ogilvy. "Our
study suggests that the vast
majority of satisfied customers
are not publicly advocating for
brands on social platforms.
Brands have not provided the
technology, incentives or content
that both inspire and enable
customers to speak out

The entertainment industry has already experienced
these communication shifts

Brands get really personal with consumers by
opening personal profiles on dating / social
networks and telling their stories as time passes

JWT London launched an online film for Anti-Slavery International. The short film
illustrates what it would be like if a domestic slave in the UK was allowed to have a voice,
via a Facebook profile. The film is based on the fictional character, ‘Lala’, whose
experiences are an amalgamation of those faced by modern-day slaves that Anti-Slavery
International comes into contact with. Lala’s updates about her experiences of work and
general life become more and more distressing as the film progresses.

Wispa reconquers it’s consumers allowing direct
interactions on it’s facebook page

Beast will be able to have direct interaction with the character via Facebook, where he
will be responding to reactions and comments in real-time throughout the day, as well as
commenting on topical events and news.

PEPSI, chief editorial of consumer musical picks
in real time

Now that brands are appreciating the benefits of becoming publishers, inevitably the
merits of content curation have to be examined. Appart from legal / right issues, there
is the fear that no independently-authored content can entirely — or even partially —
convey the brand's 'values' or 'messaging' well. A great example of this is Pepsi Pulse
which curates trending pop culture and entertainment news and blends it with original
content, such as deals and celebrity challenges. Content curation also enables brands
to create an environment that people continually return to as a knowledge resource on
a particular topic or issue.

Taco Bell gets consumers to share their Fun
Taco Bell was one of the few
experiences with the chain

brands to adopt Snapchat, a
platform that has a
reputation for sexting. The
fast food chain used
Snapchat to
introduce its Beefy Crunch Bur
, using the app's ephemeral,
10-seconds-and-it's-gone
format for the launch. Stories
offers new possibilities, said
Nick Tran, social media lead
for Taco Bell. "This is
something a lot of fans tell
us all the time," he said.
"They love sharing their
stories and trips and
adventure. We created a
story that modeled that
experience of hanging out
with a friend.“"The fact that
posts last more than 10
seconds was huge."

The right content pops up when time comes.
Romanians searches on the ROM website changed
the automated google searches !

ROM, launched a campaign to change the Romania's image on Google. They built a
website: Romanians are smart (with a Romanian version on Romanii sunt destepti),
where they persuaded Romanians to search on Google on specific terms, so they will
change the Google Autocomplete suggestions. The campaign's call to action was
"Change with a click"; users got to search directly from the website in six languages.

Coke sends TV viewers on line to choose ending, a
media strategy that has worked for them in the past

Coca-Cola’s “Mirage” ad campaign had a secure spot on the Super Bowl 47 and
was well-planned and executed. As a matter of fact, the Coke Chase ad followed
all of Coca-Cola’s main marketing strategies and values that should have brought
them success if it weren’t for the black out. The very unexpected blackout gave
an open door for some brands to come through spontaneous Twitter ad
campaigns, like Oreo, and bust in with quick witty creativity. Oreo and the
caption, “You can still dunk in the dark.” The message caught on almost
immediately, getting nearly 15,000 retweets (as of this writing) and more than
20,000 likes on Facebook

Absolut integrates VICE channel and uses banners
with an embed of the videos to promote it’s content
on VICE home pages, keeping audiences in the

styles of operation, injecting Absolut into it’s target markets. The videos were used as
featured episodes of VICE’s most popular food franchise as well as ancillary video
content for Absolut’s social channels. 5.3MM views 5.4MM ad impressions

Clearasil integrates the AWESOMENESS network to
open up interactivity around videos with wider fans
communities (and get it’s content monetized)

AwesomenessTV, which was recently bought by Dreamworks for $33m, is running
a series called #Ultrafast Clearasil Zombie Adventure Of Epic Proportions, in which
people get turned into Zombies (with bad skin). When Maddy discovers that her
best friend Monica is turning into a zombie they have twelve hours to find the
powerful Zombie Wizard before she’s turned into a zombie forever. However, to
find the Zombie Wizard MadMoni needs YOUR help.

State Farm uses sponsored content on DEADSPIN
and twitter to boost it’s TV spot awareness in a
smooth transmedia campaign…

EXCLUSIVE: Could This Be Chris Paul’s Secret Twin Brother?” the headline ran,
and went on to detail a report that a tipster has sent in a photo and some background
information on the secret twin brothers of Chris Paul (lightly marked as “Sponsored).”
To further seed the premise of the campaign, State Farm even created a Twitter
account for Cliff Paul (@CliffPaul), where “Cliff’ shares Instagram pictures of things
like Blake Griffin wearing the Cliff Paul ‘stache. All linked up to the TV commercial
“born to assist”. “State Farm also got celebrities like Saints QB Drew Brees, ESPN’s
Erin Andrews, and the actress La La to hype the “twins” story to millions of followers.

Pepsi stays on the home page holding it’s “spot” day
after day as Sponsor of BuzzFeed ListiClock

For every hour and minute of the day, the ListiClock displayed a listicle that includes
the same number. For instance, at 6:11 a.m., it showed "6 Signs Ikea Is Spying On
You" and "11 Reasons Why the NBA is Going to be Fun as Hell to Watch this Year!".
But the real kicker is that every second, it also displayed a different list. Every 10
minutes, the minute displayed shows a list that is specifically sponsored by Pepsi Next
-- although, as TechCrunch noted, the content of the sponsored lists seems to be
indistinguishable from the site's unsponsored lists. Examples of Pepsi Next partnersponsored listicles: "50 of The Most Unbelievably Adorable Dogs in The Big City,”

Twitter media campaign increases
#WalkingDeadNT1 awareness and showcases
people experiences on friends timelines

For the belated launch of "Walking Dead" in the French market, the agency captured
existing fans -- and new ones -- with the first-ever Twitter-based zombie attack. The
hashtag, #WalkingDeadNT1, was key to attracting the Walkers to Tweeters. And the
results … were contagious. 30,000 users were attacked, generating 550,000. The
premiere was screened by 5.6% of French viewers, a figure that only rose with
episodes that followed. It was also one of the most-Tweeted premieres in France.

mean that it’s not useful or valid as a method of understanding relationships between people. When
talking about ‘influence’ we’re referring to someone’s ability to change another person’s behaviour,
not social popularity. The most influential people in this analysis are those who have the biggest
impact on changing other people’s behaviour. The direction of the arrow indicates who is
influencing who. The length of the arrow indicates relationship depth. The shorter the arrow, the
closer the relationship.

Beyond the extra social media exposure understanding
what’s the impact on consumers, especially on brand
advocacy

Kantar media looked at feature related keyword for exemple « prevalence among US
hotel brands » throught advocacy filters with partners CIC, Visible
Technologies and Radian6. They went further than sentiment analysis.

Sharp engages fans in real time thanks to data
collected in real time and showcased in nice visual
way

Sharp Fan Labs is "a unique research project monitoring the emotions of thousands
of football fans". Through the FanLabs website, mobile app and even headpieces that
monitor brainwaves and behaviours which fans are being encouraged to use in
mobile 'football laboratories' housed in trucks, "a huge amount of data and insights
about the attitudes, beliefs, knowledge and confidence of football fans from different
countries has been collated" supposedly – more than 25,000 fans have taken part in
research so far, the agency claims.

Analysing data in real time helps make the right
content decisions beetween two episodes

The final episode of AMC’s Breaking Bad attracted 10.3 million viewers in its first airing at 9 p.m. on
September 29th and ranked third of all cable series finales. They decided to analyze on line data on
these stories to answer range of questions, from where Breaking Bad content was most popular to
which characters attracted the largest digital audience. They found out that, “Netflix has been
instrumental in making Breaking Bad the success that it is – particularly in the U.K. and Ireland,
where it has built an audience and become a huge phenomenon” (Netflix subscribers in the U.K.
and Ireland had exclusive access to all of the episodes immediately after they aired in the
U.S.).Data suggests that the interim between episodes 5 and 6 was the most suspenseful: While
the Breaking Bad fervor typically eases up in between episodes, we see that fans could barely take
a break from Breaking Bad content between episodes 5 and 6. Considering the incredibly shocking
cliffhanger that ended episode 5, who could blame them?

Social media can also help brands spot and gather
consumer generated contents and serve it up to fans

With OutListen a band creates a profile on the service and uploads their tour dates to
an interactive calendar. After a show, fans can fire up the app and upload any video
footage they may have shot on their phones/cameras during the show. All of this
footage is collected into a database of videos synced to specific concert dates.

Paypal analyses the content of it’s consumer
conversations to increase their satisfaction !

In early February, PayPal shared a quote of the day post, “Who needs a boyfriend when you have a
PayPal account?” To-date this has been one of the most successful posts by engagement. We
leveraged this sentiment to connect with the consumers on Valentine's Day and posed the question
– This Valentines Day, tell us, how would you like to #TreatYourself ? To bring this message to life
PayPal wanted to connect with consumers and jumped on the active #TreatYourself conversation on
twitter. The campaign targeted people who take to Twitter to express their dissatisfaction with the
holiday. Throughout Valentine’s Day, the PayPal team monitored tweets to identify Twitter users
and surprise them with a customized gift based on research of their tweet history. The team then
gifted Twitter users throughout the day with presents including flowers, clothes, restaurant gift cards,
room service, concert tickets, and chocolate covered strawberries.
