Complete strategy

To celebrate its 20th anniversary, Mr. Puffs launched an exceptional campaign that captivated and thanked its loyal customers. Since its founding in 2004, the company has grown to become a beloved brand, and this anniversary was the perfect opportunity to mark the occasion. For 20 days, an exciting contest was organized in partnership with prestigious brands like Uber, Illy, and Natrel, offering fantastic prizes, including a grand trip to Greece totalling over 25 million impressions.

To make the experience even more memorable, an interactive quiz on the 2000s was created, engaging customers in a fun and playful way. This initiative helped increase Mr. Puffs' email database by 10 times. In addition, articles in La Presse and the Globe and Mail were published, highlighting the people behind the brand, humanizing this local company that is often perceived as American.

Alongside this, the campaign also promoted Mr. Puffs’ loyalty app, which saw a 10x increase in users in just one month. Finally, a retro weekend pricing promotion was launched, increasing restaurant traffic by 75-140% depending on the territory. This month-long celebration not only strengthened the connection with customers, but also propelled Mr. Puffs to new heights.
