Medianama has this insightful coverage of a new interactive feature from DEN. Essentially a service that broadcasts user comments to a wider TV audience. We are beginning a Social Media promotion for them now and the initial response is quite healthy though one does wish it would provied more than the warholian fleeting minutes of fame! We’ll be watching the campaign response quite eagerly since this project also marks Phonethics’ entry into the domain of ‘Media Consultancy’. Exciting times..

Social Media Campaign for Cadbury Bournville by Phonethics
Posted by Saurabh Gupta in Phonethics, Social Media, Viral Marketing, Visual Alphabets on September 28th, 2009
As far as Social Media marketing goes, content is intent. www.the-dark-truth.com is a content led campaign for Cadbury Bournville. We created a character called the Old Hound who blogged and also featured in a comic that took the audience through the Legend of the Bournville in action. The mystery led blog posts and curated content from across the web that was posted on the Facebook profile of the character Old Hound kept up the stickiness quotient of the community. It was fun to see people post their paranormal experiences online to share with the Old Hound. The audience participation was tremendous with folks also posting their own stories of ‘earning it’ ['you don't just buy a Bournville, you earn it - the brand's theme & catchline].
The blog has rec’d over 125k views uptill now and continues as one of our most successful content led campaigns (in terms of user participation) ever!
