MUMBAI: Nestlé India has launched a first-of-its-kind Twitter campaign #UntrendLikeHotHeads for Maggi Hotheads.
Maggi Hotheads - the spicy new variant from Maggi was launched last year and appeals to consumers with its four exciting and unique flavours - Green Chilli, Chilli Chicken, Peri Peri and BBQ Black Pepper. The brand is targeted at the youth who are a ‘bit eccentric’, are willing to take risks and have a positive and playful attitude towards life.
Nestlé India’s in-house content ‘Live Studio’ managed by HyperCollective, and Zenith India, Nestlé India’s media agency, collaborated for this innovative campaign and executed it on Twitter.
The campaign urged consumers to break free from popular trends and display their original, unique selves. They could post on an activity which sets them apart from popular trends. The gratification lay in the fact that Maggi Hotheads made people trend on Twitter.
A highly responsive twitter campaign got the Twitter universe into a frenzy. With over 13 million impressions and 28,000 hashtag mentions in just 3 days, Nestlé received 800 plus entries from across the country. The campaign received overall 3.1% engagement rate while the industry standard is at 2% for FMCG.
Tanmay Mohanty, Group CEO, Zenith India says," #UntrendLikeHotHeads hits the mark because it is fun, quirky, engaging and resonates with the Indian youth. There is an instant connect with the Maggi Hotheads brand, also known for its distinct positioning and taste. The campaign has sparked off viral conversations, amplified brand messaging, and generated rich insights."
Taranjeet Singh, Country Director, Twitter India said, “Nestle's #UntrendLikeHotHeads is a breakthrough idea, the collaboration saw extraordinary participation on the platform and enabled Maggi to be what's happening on Twitter. We look forward to working closely to be part of more of such creative, strategic partnerships.”
Using the hashtag #UntrendLikeHotheads, a plethora of fresh and engaging content pieces emerged in three days of the activity. Zenith India made sure that the content was targeted and optimised effectively and efficiently and hence delivering enriching brand experience through the platform.
