GOAL
Promote the Sony Xperia ZX3 smartphone in the Netherlands through a creative campaign with artist duo Lucas & Steve. 

IDEA
Sony Mobile NL wanted to launch a creative campaign to promote their Sony Xperia ZX3 smartphone in the Netherlands. They partnered with DJ duo Lucas & Steve and thought of a creative campaign with high PR value to launch in their home country. 

The first part of the campaign consisted of Lucas & Steve asking fans to send in their awkward or horrible date experiences to a special set up phone number through WhatsApp. This video to announce the campaign was posted organically and as an advertisement on the Lucas & Steve and Spinnin’ Records social media channels. The five best stories were picked, and the winners were invited to the special Lucas & Steve Valentine’s pop-up restaurant in the Duke of Tokyo in Amsterdam on Valentine’s Day.

The winners arrived at the Duke of Tokyo restaurant and found out they were getting served by Lucas & Steve themselves. After dinner, the restaurant was quickly transformed into a proper club for the release party of Lucas & Steve their new single ‘Say Something’, which officially released the day after. All of this was captured with a live report on the Instagram Stories of Lucas & Steve their account.

RESULTS
The campaign generated over 1,000,000 reach on social media. 823,128 through the Spinnin’ Records socials and 177,473 through artist socials coming to a total of 1,000,601 persons reached. Next to that the campaign got some nice PR on Dutch national radio and more.
