Vacation-Inspired Interactive Campaigns

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Almond Joy's Playful Campaign Advocates for Vacation Days

— August 14, 2018 — Marketing
Almond Joy organizes an interactive campaign that features a coconut-inspired phone booth and some giveaways. The thoughtful project is carried out in Nashville, Tennessee. It is specifically designed to address the problematic statistics of a 2017 study which revealed that on average, American workers take only 17 days off work annually, leaving 52% of vacation days unused.

Almond Joy's interactive campaign emphasizes the importance of regularly taking a break to recharge. The project included a laidback booth installation with a coconut phone. Intrigued passers-by are seen picking up the hard shell and speaking with brand ambassador Tim Cole who asks them how long has it been since their last vacation. The answers are somewhat striking and the individuals, participating in the interactive campaign, are given goodie bags, as well as spa certificates, vouchers for cruises and more.
