3.8 million submissions between July 20 and Oct. 6 in 2012.
Lay’s then narrowed down the choices to the top 25 flavors which they manufactured and tested,
and then finally landed on the top three of Cheesy Garlic Bread, Chicken & Waffles, and Sriracha.
In 2013, fans were able to purchase these three flavors in stores, and then vote on Facebook or on
Twitter for their favorite flavor and decide the million dollar winner.

20. HEINEKEN INSTAGRAM CASE
CRACK THE US OPEN
One of the most innovative Instagram campaigns of the year, re-imagining how to use the Instagram
platform for a fan contest.
Heineken created a new Instagram profile for the contest, @Crack_the_US_Open, and stitched
together a panorama using hundreds of photos depicting tennis fans sitting in the grandstands.
Heineken started the massive photo hunt by posting a clue and codeword on their Instagram
account and fans had to search for the correct fan and comment on the correct photo with the
codeword to win a pair of tickets to the US Open.
Over the course of 3 days, 1,500 people participated in 7 photo hunts and grew Heinken’s Instagram
follower count by 20%.
One-off campaigns on new social
accounts like this one are a great way to run
social media contests that can be more
creative and don’t clutter or disrupt the
strategy of official accounts.
21. CONCLUSION
Social Media Marketing is primarily internet-based but has similarities with non-internet-
based marketing methods (word-of-mouth marketing).
The social media marketing is a great tool to target efficiently the right
people and above all to create viral messages.
Marketers can benefit from the low cost and potentially wide reach of viral messaging
through SMM. However a key hurdle is finding a subject that is humorous/fascinating/
controversial enough to be worth recipients passing it on.
It is not possible to design a «Viral Campaign», they just happen.
