OVERVIEW

Background

Made of My City is a Johnnie Walker project that creates limited editions that propose more sustainable cities in the future. Each edition is launched at an exclusive event for influencers, press and VIPs.

To achieve this, two aspects should be addressed: exclusivity, an asset present in all communication of the brand's Black Label line. And also, sustainability, which is the purpose of the Made of My City project.

Therefore, the activation should at the same time bring something that gives guests the feeling of witnessing something unique and also inspire them to a debate between progress and the excesses present in São Paulo's culture. This reflection should also be transmitted to your followers and all fans of the brand on social media.

Idea

For the launch of the São Paulo edition, we decided to transform this event into a warning about how rare unpolluted air has become in the world. To do this, we invited influencers to a tasting of the new edition of Johnnie Walker paired with a very rare delicacy, which only 0.001% of people on Earth have ever tasted.

At the event, guests discovered what the delicacy was: pollution-free air, which today only 90,000 people across the planet have access to. To achieve this, we built a dome with a controlled atmosphere reproducing the same characteristics as Svalbard, the city with the purest air in the world. Thus, we transformed the launch into an alert that surprised guests and their social media followers.

Strategy

For the launch of the São Paulo edition, we decided to transform this event into a warning about how rare unpolluted air has become in the world. To do this, we invited influencers to a tasting of the new edition of Johnnie Walker paired with a very rare delicacy, which only 0.001% of people on Earth have ever tasted.

Thus, we transformed the launch into an alert that surprised guests and their social media followers.

Execution

We built a Dome for the launch of this limited edition. We prepared the rarest delicacy in the world: fresh and pure air similar to that of the city of Svalbard, in Norway. We did it with science and extreme air purification equipment. The narrative of the action took place in a cross between Johnnie Walker's social networks and that of all the influencers invited to the event.

To give legitimacy to the theme and at the same time arouse their and their followers' curiosity about what the delicacy would be, the subject was launched by São Paulo chef Janaína Rueda, from the 12th best restaurant on the planet and the best cheff in the World https://www.instagram.com/theworlds50best/?img_index=1

All of this contributed to the fact that on the day of the launch, not only them but also their followers were curious about the revelation of what the delicacy would be.

Outcome

During the Teaser with influencers and chef Janaína Rueda, we reached a total of 57.3 million followers who followed the narrative on social media.

During the event, there was live broadcast on Johnnie Walker networks and also publications by chef Janaína Rueda and all the guests surprised by the revelation of the delicacy.

The matter reverberated among his millions of followers and also attracted the attention of the press, being reported in several media outlets.

With this campaign, Johnnie Walker started a dialogue with its audience about a topic little discussed by the brand: sustainability. In addition to taking this discussion to the layer with the highest purchasing power in the country.
