Snack brands latest campaigns drive social engagement

Two great examples of brands using social engagement at the heart of their campaigns have popped up recently.

The ‘Choose a Chunky Champion’ campaign drives users to vote for their favourite flavour and Kit Kat Chunky guru for their chance to win £100 each day. A series of comedy sketches on YouTube from the representative gurus ask users to back their flavour – quite amusing too, take a look below…

Walkers have switched up from their usual ‘choose from’ voting style campaigns – creating 3 mystery bags of crisps from which users have to guess the flavour for their chance to win £50,000.
