The C Is for Chrysler campaign's social strategy was to develop a cross-platform approach to drive engagement, further enhance brand and vehicle awareness and sustain attention on the Pacifica throughout the year.
We kicked off the campaign by creating a thematic driving force through a series of four narrative videos, Listen! Drive! Surprise!, which use a game-show storyline and character traits to introduce the Chrysler Pacifica and its award-winning features.
To expand on this initial narrative, we developed six standalone short-form videos that allowed us to provide flexible, dynamic content, incorporate celebrity talent, and engage our audience in a less feature-forward way.
From these 10 informative and entertaining videos, we generated hundreds of micro-content pieces, including cutdowns, GIFs, Instagram Stories, polls, multi-photo posts and stills. This micro-content was customized, repurposed and distributed across all our social channels and extended to cultural and holiday-themed posts.
Ultimately, Chrysler and Sesame Street united to create a world that allowed our favorite characters to experience the features and versatility of the Pacifica.
The C Is for Chrysler campaign resonated well with audiences across all ages, genders and channels, proving that the nostalgia angle worked:
•Ad recall for Chrysler Pacifica moved significantly by 12 points; Ad recall scores grew significantly among both genders and 25-54s.
•An uplift of 18 points was seen in association of Chrysler Pacifica with Sesame Street; Both genders and 25-44s exhibited a significant increase, contributing to the total lift.
