“I love Altoids!” - @kess1573

Campaign Performance

Stickybits announced the

promotion to our users through an

email blast, our blog, Twitter and

Facebook.

Some people luckily had Altoids

nearby, but most did not. In order

to be one of the first, there was an

important time element involved.

If they wanted to win, they had to

get to an Altoids tin as fast as

possible. Some planned it as part

of their shopping, but others went

out of their way to gain access to

them.

From the data above, we can see

that right after we announced the

promotion there was a small

delay and then the largest spike

of the promotion. It was in that

spike that the promotion sold

out.

Scanning continued even after

all the iTunes gift cards were

awarded, although users

stopped sharing the promotion

1,623 scans 1,339 unique

349 wall posts

with their friends once they

received a loser message.

349 posts were added to

the Altoids wall and

viewable through the

stickybits app. They

ranged from praise, to

photos of altoids, to

passionate comments of

people’s love for Altoids.

There was a high level of

sharing, which we will

move on to next.

Social Engagement

Social Engagement

Many people didn’t scan just once. They continued to

come back and engage with the stickybits community in a

conversation around Altoids. With stickybits’ built in sharing,

the promotion spread like wildfire through twitter and by

word of mouth.

Big love to @altoids and @stickybits for the Itunes gift card yesterday! Did you get yours? - @ed_peterson

Scanning Locations United States

Europe New Zealand

Pakistan

It didn’t surprise us that most of

our scanning came from the US.

However, we did not restrict the

promotion to only the US.

The result: Altoids were scanned

in 32 different countries, including

England, Germany, Australia,

Singapore, New Zealand, Israel,

South Korea, and yes, even

Pakistan.
