Execution
Mountain Dew and Doritos kicked off Every 2 Minutes at PAX Prime, staging a live auction for some of the first Xbox One entertainment systems on the planet, and then moved to every2minutes.com, where gamers competed against each other in thousands of online auctions. Building their bidding power by banking codes found within specially-marked packages, fans were taking Dew and Doritos home in truckloads. Real-time notifications alerted users if they were outbid, driving them to up their ante, or bring home more Dew and Doritos to stay in the game. Thousands emerged victorious, claiming the Xbox One as their prize.
Outcome
Publicized through a fully-integrated media campaign, Every 2 Minutes pursued, found, and captivated its audience over the 31 days of auctions, driving unprecedented website traffic and real-world business results.
