NEW YORK, Jan. 28, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LikeMeat, a LIVEKINDLY Collective brand, creative agency 72andSunny and Blue Hour Studios, a creative content agency and affiliate of Horizon Media, are behind the first-of-its-kind TikTok scavenger hunt, “WingIt2WinIt,” inspired by LikeMeat’s Like Chick’n Wings product launch. The challenge kicks off on January 26 and sends TikTokers on a hunt to find and decode digital clues for a chance to win two tickets to the biggest football game of the year along with LikeMeat’s Like Chick’n Wings and other prizes.
“WingIt2WinIt” combines TikTok’s challenge frenzy with America’s most iconic wing eating occasion to drive sales and excitement around LikeMeat’s mouth-watering, plant-based Like Chick’n Wings. The campaign is an extension of 72andSunny’s “Go Ahead and Wing It” creative platform, tapping into a diverse group of creators to maximize organic reach beyond the usual vegan community and inspiring meat-loving football fans to ditch their same old chicken game for Like Chick’n Wings.
LikeMeat’s TikTok challenge is an innovative way to engage with the app’s community and get more people to try the plant-based Chick’n Wings. Developed by Blue Hour Studios, the campaign was inspired by the co-creating culture of TikTok and the entertainment rabbit holes that users experience on the platform each day.
The challenge combines existing TikTok behaviors—challenges, niche content, creator communities, and unexpected mashups—with and innovative scavenger hunt for a novel experience that will end with two tickets to the Big Game, LikeMeat’s Like Chick’n Wings and other prizes.
To get a chance to win such an epic experience, TikTok users must combine their love for the platform and its creators with the ingenuity to crack a secret code. Blue Hour Studios recruited a group of TikTok creators including Rob Gronkowski to launch the scavenger hunt and hide clues in their videos. Each clue reveals a set of hidden messages down a TikTok journey that ends with a chance to win tickets to the Big Game and other LikeMeat prizes on WingIt2WinIt.com.
“We’re so excited to collaborate with Blue Hour Studios and 72andSunny on this novel scavenger hunt that not only gives away two tickets to the big event but shakes up a Big Game staple ritual – wings,” said Emily Klooster of LikeMeat. “A product as innovative as LikeMeat’s Chick’n Wings, with their crispy coating and juicy, bone-free, meaty texture, deserves equally innovative marketing and we believe we’ve achieved this with our novel use of TikTok’s platform, drool-worthy content, and a creator-driven approach to production to shake up peoples’ chicken game.”
“As we kick off 2022, we’re excited to work with such an innovative and collaborative client on this one-of-a-kind project,” said Alexandria Lo Grasso of Blue Hour Studios. “When it comes to purchasing decisions, we believe in the power of creators and their ability to connect with people in ways brands can’t alone. There is an important human element that comes with investing in creators who are genuinely excited about partnering with a brand to create unique experiences for their followers.”
