Adidas' Social Media Campaign Turns Instagram into a Game
Laura McQuarrie — August 28, 2014 — Marketing
For its #PredatorInstinct social media campaign, the Polish Adidas account has been transformed into a unique interactive experience. Although Instagram is a great platform because it is a great place to share visual content, there are only a few things that you can do, including liking and sharing the photos of others.
@Adidas_PL turned its Instagram account into a game, where users are required to hunt for secret codes in the photo tags, and put together a password. Once discovered, users are challenged to like the photos that correspond with the password in the right order. Daily winners receive a pair of Predator Instinct shoes, valued at $200. The ten runners up get new passwords in order to continue the hunt and win an Adidas soccer ball.
