The Brief

Tabasco found out that its customers didn’t always use Tabasco, because apart from spaghetti, they don’t know on which food to use it. Tabasco wanted to increase its brand awareness and show to Belgian young men that pizza and Tabasco is the perfect combination. How we wanted to do this? By making our audience taste it themselves. Young men often order pizza while watching a football match. So for the world cup we created a mobile game called: “Pizzagoal”.

Describe how the promotion developed from concept to implementation

We launched a mobile game called: “Pizzagoal”. An app to win free pizza with Tabasco flavour, each time a Pizzagoal was scored during the world cup. A football field consists out of pizza-like shapes: the corners, half circles and center circle. Did a football player score from one of these shapes, directly or by assist? That’s Pizzagoal! Then the participants could win free pizza with Tabasco in the same shape: a quarter, half or whole pizza. They only had to follow the matches live and claim the Pizzagoals via the app. We collaborated with Domino’s to have the pizzas delivered.

Describe the success of the promotion with both client and consumer including some quantifiable results

Tabasco’s brand awareness went up from 83% to 88%. The number of people finding Tabasco and pizza a perfect combination increased by 12%.

Explain why the method of promotion was most relevant to the product or service

Tabasco intensifies flavours. Most people who have tasted Tabasco flavour on their pizza, love it. They only need a little push to try it. The game-aspect of Pizzagoal appeared to be the ideal push to have them trying it. The Pizzagoal-game created a strong link between pizza and Tabasco. The Pizzagoal-app affected our target group rightly, they dared each other and showed off with their amount of recognised Pizzagoals. Most people communicate about football matches via second screen. So by launching the Pizzagoal-app, Tabasco directly intervened in the world of youngsters in a pleasant and convenient way.
