As part of an inaugural Upwork CoLab brand-partnership program, Budweiser created limited-edition Labor Day cans and the Raise a Bud campaign. Created by Deuce Studio, the special edition cans celebrate a global workforce of independent talent and a drinking holiday when people gather with friends and family to share a beer.
The special cans express "This Bud's for You" and include a space for customization. The campaign is focused on sharing the stories of American workers and people are invited to nominate a hard worker in their lives by posting a picture of them on Instagram. 10 finalists will get to see their name on a personalized Labor Day Budweiser can, and those lucky individuals will also get three months wages paid by Budweiser for free.
