Execution

To promote Dunkin' Replay, we aired a premade "teaser" vine on ESPN's pregame show, Monday Night Countdown. Using the #DunkinReplay hashtag, we drove viewers online for a second-screen experience.

During the game, our "newsroom-style" team selected a high-interest play, whether it was a game changer, controversial call, or simply a memorable moment. Our team re-created the play in Vine using a 10-foot “Dunkin'-ized" set with Dunkin' coffee cups as players. The Vine video was tweeted from @DunkinDonuts during the fourth quarter and retweeted by ESPN, while promoted tweets targeted Monday Night Football fans.

Outcome

We were able to create an innovative partnership that led to the first-ever Vine-produced television commercial. The on-air elements of #DunkinReplay delivered an estimated $836k in additional value while promoting our Vine videos. Combining the power of Dunkin’s social following with ESPN’s social channels, our #DunkinReplay vines garnered over 70.7MM impressions. Top-performing #DunkinReplay tweets had an engagement rate 8–10% higher than Twitter’s benchmark of 1.00%. Thanks to the scale of the program with ESPN, our social efforts were highly efficient, delivering a cost-per-engagement rate almost 25% less than Twitter’s benchmark.
