Digital agency Blink Digital has devised a gamified route for launching KFC’s latest product from America, here in India. By creating a microsite, the digital agency took gamification to the next level by asking participants to unlock the biggest secret to discover KFC’s latest product launch. The objective behind creating the microsite was to enable secrecy and build hype around the launch of the product. The campaign titled ‘America’s biggest secret’ saw over 50,000 registrations within three days of its launch.
Speaking about the campaign, Dooj Ramchandani, Co-Founder & Creative Director, Blink Digital, said, “With time and attention at a premium, consumers are increasingly looking for fun and engaging activities that can offer add-on achievements. With this campaign, we wanted to challenge our consumer to be an agent and uncover ‘America’s Biggest Secret’ while fostering a more meaningful connection to the product being launched.â€
Added Luiz Ruiz Ribot, KFC India’s Chief Marketing Officer: “In order to create intrigue around a new KFC launch, we created a unique game based on the current fascination towards all things American, from the oval office to Hollywood. At the end of the game, consumers discover that the biggest American secret being revealed is a cult-like following chicken recipe from Nashville which we are now launching in India. This interactive way of pre-launching KFC’s new Nashville chicken is truly addictive and a great way of keeping users hooked.â€
This monsoon, KFC in association with Blink Digital turns the act of charging your phone into a service by launching ‘Watt A Box’ - the meal box which comes with a built-in power bank that can charge your smartphone while you enjoy your meal.
Driven by consumer insights and demand to access mobile chargers, KFC has created this innovative solution as part of its marketing campaign to engage with consumers. Lucky customers at select KFC stores in Mumbai and Delhi will get a chance to have their 5-in-1 meal served in ‘Watt A Box’ and be able to take it home too. Users can also participate in an online contest on the KFC India Facebook page to win these limited edition boxes.
“We launched the 5-in- 1 Meal Box in March this year with the objective of providing an abundant complete meal and at an affordable price for our customers. With the launch of Watt a Box, we have gone a step ahead and also introduced an element of utility into the box. Each one of us spends a considerable time on our smartphones daily and the phone battery going dead is almost like a nightmare! No longer so with Watt a Box around,†said KFC India CMO, Lluis Ruiz Ribot.

“In today’s day and age, smartphones have become as indispensable as food. Finding a charger when your smartphone battery is low can be stressful – whether in the middle of a meeting or in the middle of a meal. With the limited edition KFC Watt A Box, we wanted to offer a smarter and easy cool way for our consumers to recharge their smartphones while they have a ‘finger licking experience!â€, said Dooj Ramchandani, Co-founder and Chief Creative Officer, Blink Digital.
The quick service restaurant market is a competitive one with restaurants battling it out to convert hungry and time sensitive customers and a meal box with built-in power bank holds the power to deliver more personalised customer experiences.
