The Work
To launch Little Caesars’ first UK restaurant, FINN helped create an epic event for the local Derby community that included live entertainment, games, sampling and hosting Little Caesars’ senior leadership team. The first 100 customers to walk through its doors received a coupon book that gifted each recipient a years’ worth of free Hot-N-Ready® pizza.
To drive excitement in the run-up, the PR team issued a release. Social media and paid boosting were utilized to geo-target the local area and draw attention to the generous giveaway.
On the day, FINN’s content creators were on hand to capture the event as it unfolded, sharing reactively and round-ups in the week following, while the PR team facilitated interviews. 14 pieces of coverage were generated, in addition to guests sharing user-generated content across their own social profiles. The event was a huge success with smiles all around.
