The Campaign
To offer a great on the ground experience for foodies, we created the Old El Paso food truck, touring in the streets of Paris during 2 months: from media newsrooms in September to influencers and Parisian pedestrians in October.
To amplify socially this event and create word-of-mouth on social networks, we created the first ever #PayWithAPhoto mechanics in France. To get their delicious cooked taco, participants were invited to take a photo of the Old El Paso food truck and publish it on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter with #1PhotoPour1Taco (#1PhotoFor1Taco).

Explain why the method of promotion was most relevant to the product or service
Old El Paso France created a social food-truck with a mechanical titled #1PHOTOPOUR1TACO (pay with a photo) combined with a tour of Paris.
To amplify this event operation on social networks, Old El Paso set up for the first time in France, the #PayWithAPhoto system: a food-truck's photo posted on social networks in exchange of a tasting taco "Restaurante ".
To drive participants to the store, we created the social accounts of Old El Paso foodtruck on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. Each time a participant published a photo with #1PhotoPour1Taco, the food truck accounts replied immediately rewarding them in a funny way with a digital voucher.
To drive foodies and spread the word over these communities, we proposed to use social media ads, geolocalised to drive traffic to the food truck and targeted precisely to foodies communities and influencers.
