The Challenge
The iconic 1995 commercial featuring the Christmas Truck became a brand experience in 1996, and has since continued to spread holiday magic across the UK. As part of our continued partnership with MKTG and Coca-Cola, we executed the 2019 tour, bringing festive joy to thousands of people. TED provided world class staffing to facilitate the consumer engagement, and a rigging team to handle logistics.
Ted recruited over 50 brand heroes to guide visitors through a winter wonderland experience
TED sampled the ‘perfect serve’ across multiple Coca-Cola products
We ensured the journey was educational – building brand sentiment
We ensured every conversation reflected the Coca-Cola brand ethos, focussing on the importance of responsible recycling, to further strengthen brand sentiment
The Solution
TED team rigged the events to be fully compliant with health and safety regulations, across a range of locations. TED Brand Heroes helped entertain the large queues and eager crowds by encouraging visitors to take part in a number of engaging activities. As families engaged with the iconic Coca-Cola Truck experience, they could take festive selfies, and receive a mini can served at the perfect temperature.
The team of event managers and traveling ambassadors went through intensive face to face training on engagements, coaching other team members, managing large queues, crowds and press. Coca-Cola’s goal of a world without waste was at the heart of the campaign with ambassadors encouraging visitors to recycle on site with our bespoke can crusher. At key retail events, we also offered a unique opportunity for customers to receive a personalised Coke bottle.
