OVERVIEW

Description

Miller High Life decided to buy a commercial on the Super Bowl this year and give it to the people who could really use it--some small businesses.

Execution

The idea was brought to life in a variety of different mediums including TV, radio, retail, digital and PR. The campaign kicked off two weeks prior to the Super Bowl with :30 TV that communicated the idea and told people to look out for the commercial on the Big Game. The idea was supported online through millerhighlife.com and Facebook, where consumers could get to know the businesses that were going to be in the commercial as well as explore tons of other content. PR played a critical role in the marketing mix and the idea received a tremendous amount of press on a variety of national news outlets that featured both our High Life delivery guy and the small business owners being interviewed about the idea. Retail support included POS and other elements. Finally, the :30 spot featuring the small businesses ran during the third quarter of the Super Bowl.

Outcome

The idea yielded great results for both the brand and the businesses featured. The total TV media impressions exceeded 65 million. The idea received coverage on national news outlets including CNN, Fox, ESPN, New York Times, and Sports Business Daily. The idea also received coverage locally in more than 50 markets across the country. Most notably, all of the small businesses reported huge increases in store traffic following the launch of the idea.
