Best Automobile Social Media Campaign, Best Mobile Social Media Campaign

For the Super Bowl we wanted to extend the hilarity of our Smaht Pahk commercial into social. We started with an online teaser called “Dialect Coach” to introduce that we were doing something Bostony. Once the spot was revealed the love for all things Southie came pouring in, and we were ready with Bostonian replies, and the first-ever TikTok campaign from an automotive brand in the US. We launched a targeted social campaign in the city of Boston as well to pay our respects to the city of inspiration, and then proceeded to have a full Boston Takeover on Twitter, hiring two comedians—including one star from the ad—to tweet for us on gameday and film our real-time Quartertime Shows. The results were wicked awesome, garnering our team a Twitter Brand Bowl win for best real-time efforts, a boost in brand opinion, and 98% positive sentiment throughout the entire campaign.
