The Campaign

Usually we ship our products the traditional way, but for the re-launch of the N9000 we wanted do to a different kind of delivery -by foot, running. We partnered up with a sneaker store in Barcelona and the first customer pre-ordering the shoes unknowingly sat in motion a relay run across Europe. 70 recruited people ran 1500 kilometers for nine days, from the factory in Italy to the customer doorstep in Barcelona.

Creative Execution

A sneaker store in Barcelona was chosen because it was within running distance for the nine days’ time limit of the pre-order. Here the first person ordering the shoes, would get a really special delivery. In the first stage of the campaign we recruited runners through social media. Focusing on the areas where the run would take place. A mix of recruited local runners, employees and “hero runners”; from 9 different countries created the chain of runners bringing the box the 1500 kilometers across Europe. The run was documented and shared Live through social media. Afterwards people could re-live the whole experience through a documentary and an interactive website. The run allowed Diadora to showcase their different products, involve the target group along the way and create unique content - all on behalf of one lucky customer ordering the new N9000.

1) Average increase of 96% across measured brand association parameters (TNS post/pre-test). 2) Intention to buy increased 43% across target markets (TNS post/pre-test). 3) Online sales increased by 47% during the campaign period.

We wanted to create a real and relevant launch of the N9000 that could prove what Diadora is all about. The campaign should be real and challenge the category. Our target audience was sport-loving people in Europe. It was an important task to engage this people in a way they felt relevant. We wanted to create a platform that allowed us to involve people directly in the campaign, and create content that we could use in different channels to spark conversation with people
