Overview

Execution

We begin with the kiss, giving visitors the ability to use their devices or webcams to make a personal lip imprint. We built the site to perform at its best on all screens, so whether you capture a kiss on desktop or mobile, you can watch your message delivered through a rich, personalized journey that shows off detailed touches in hundreds of international cities, mapping your kiss and others around the world being delivered in real time, with the help of Google location data - a flurry of activity that reflects the scale of Burberry’s international audience.

Outcome

The success of Burberry Kisses was evident immediately and within only 10 days, kisses were sent from over 13,000 cities, traveling more than 109 million miles. On hearing about the campaign, consumers searched for 'Burberry Kisses' over 253,000 times on Google.com, during that same time period and they were delighted at what they found, as were the press.

“Sending and receiving a postcard is itself fun and engaging, but equally cool is the map of kisses you can view at the end, which shows cards being sent from city to city in real-time.” - Mashable
