Kraft Macaroni & Cheese
In 2011 Kraft Macaroni & Cheese, the delicious blue box brand that has been a staple in the lives of American children since 1937 sought to break their traditional advertising mold and go after a more adult audience. With the creative assistance of ad agency Crispin Porter + Bogusky, Kraft impelemented three highly innovative social media campaigns: Mac & Jinx, Mac & Cheese TV, and Smile Tagging. When the campaigns were done running the brand netted 400% increase in followers and became a trending topic, with at one point 300 mentions per minute of “Mac & Cheese.”
