RE: [uk-netmarketing] Successful FMCG online marketing campaigns?

[James Gordon-MacIntosh]

Mad for this, which came across my desk today. If anyone out there knows who

put it together, please get in touch. A humble PR is sitting in awe at the

sheer silliness of it -- as well as the beautiful integration with

sponsorship and advertising, of course.


THE HEINEKEN PEANUT CHALLENGE


Fancy yourself as a bit of a armchair sportsman? Then you should try The

Heineken Peanut Challenge. Ok so you're no Jonah Lomu, but with a bit of

practice you could win some awesome prizes.

Subject: [uk-netmarketing] Successful FMCG online marketing campaigns?



Hello everyone. I'm writing an article on how FMCG brands are using the Web 

to market themselves. To help me out (and to stimulate some discussion) I 

wanted to know what people think (and yes, I don't mind receiving obvious 

plugs from PRs etc, at least the case studies are genuine) are the most 

successful examples of online marketing activity by bricks and mortar brands


(esp. FMCG)? Also, which are the sites out there, launched by FMCG brands, 

which people think have succeeded (in terms of traffic and online 

brand-awareness) and what type of PR / marketing activity was used to make 

these a success? I want some success stories really on what works, no 

negatives on what doesn't work as I think we've had enough of those (though 

you can e-mail me at my address if you fancy a rant!)


Cheers, Rob
