Describe the campaign/entry

Carrefour wanted to increase traffic to its transactional web up to 10% and to encourage people to purchase online. For the launch, Carrefour decided to hire the famous Argentinian actor Leonardo Sbaraglia.

The idea is that all purchases made on www.carrefour.es would automatically enter a prize draw to win one of 10 home deliveries made by the actor himself.

However, at the last minute, and after some careful deliberation, Carrefour decided that their online shopping service was so good anyway that it didn't really need celebrity endorsement.

Leonardo got really mad so we decided it would be best to leave the matter in the hands of the public. By voting in the web, they would decide whether Leonardo should come or not.

We launched a website with all the videos of the campaign, mailings to media opinion leaders, press releases, social media actions, emailing and banner campaign which informed users about Leonardo’s whereabouts.



Describe how the campaign/entry was launched across each channel in the order of implementation



Phase 1: Statement of the Problem - With or Without Leonardo?

a) Internet video #1 in www.conosinleonardo.com

b) Press Release communicated the launch.

c) Mailing to media opinion leaders and top bloggers.



Phase 2: Participation and Outcome - With Leonardo!

a) Press Release revealed 90% of the uses decided "With Leonardo".

b) Internet video #2 communicating voting results and promotion:

"If you shop at www.carrefour.es you will participate in the drawing of 10 home deliveries made by Leonardo. If you win, your purchase is free.”



Phase 3: Outcome and 10 Home Deliveries.

a) Press Release revealed the result of the draw for 10 home deliveries made by Leonardo.

b) Launch of Internet videos #3 to 12.



The campaign story took place online. During all three phases, social media and buzz marketing supported by emailings and banner campaigns generated traffic and maintained a strong link between the brand, its website and the target.
