Coke Zero

Take a Taste
_________

#Takeataste is based on the insight that Coke Zero Sugar is so good it's worth taking and protecting.  To launch the idea for March Madness, we tapped a dynamic duo of real friends and hoops aficionados (from the hit show DAVE on FX) to debate the “best ever” protectors and takers in NCAA college basketball history — all while battling over possession of a single can of Coke Zero Sugar, with some cameos from some of the best evers along the way.

Best Game Watching Experience Ever
_________

With an influencer partnership program, we gifted bespoke branded care package kits to help ensure the best ever game-watching experience, including a promo to highlight the gifting kits from Dave himself, as a lover of robes. There's no better way to enjoy March Madness than watching your favorite teams in ultimate comfort. The kit included luxuriously branded robes, matching slides, a chalice fit for a royal and free Coke Zero Sugar.

Battle For Possesion
_________

As the official sponsor of March Madness, the campaign was integrated throughought the tournament experience. We continuously reminded fans that Coke Zero Sugar is so good it's worth taking, or protecting, through branded in-game segments, announcer reads, bumpers and lower-thirds, including on the ground fan activations for the Final Four in Houston. Magic and Tamika competed with fans in a game of Z-E-R-0 aka H-O-R-S-E, for bragging rights and the best Coke ever of course.
