THE DRUMSTICK SLURPEE CONE CAR TRADE

Drumstick wanted to associate their new blue raspberry slurpee cone with unexpected summer fun. so we gave people a way to get in the front seat of that.

THE SOCIAL INSIGHT + SIGNALS

did you know that cars on Facebook marketplace are always circulating on TikTok? whether it be for their randomness, their absurd modifications, the phenomena of trolling lowballing on Marketplace to “correct the used car market”, and most recently, gen z being into getting a Facebook Marketplace car due to its affordability and lack of monthly car payment stress.

THE STRATEGY

we kept things pretty nimble. every asset and touchpoint had to be intentional to work within budget and for engagement.

THE CREATIVE

so we put a Drumstick Slurpee Cone themed wrapped car on Facebook Marketplace and TikTok up for grabs. 

the twist? it wasn’t for sale with money. it was up for trade for something unexpected. ranging from naming your new furry baby “Drumstick”, to your high school prom queen crown, to a weird thrift store find, you name it.

 
 

the replies poured in. to keep momentum going, we replied to comment submissions with #CarTok edit styled videos.

THE RESULTS

almost 10 million views, too many comments to reply to, and 317,838,962 media impressions that got people excited to enter. this Food & Wine piece was a delish thing to read too.
