Maes is Belgium’s second most popular beer but also Belgium’s 3rd most common surname. So since there is no joy in being second Maes beer gave a free barrel of Maes to all the people with the name Maes. They just had to sign up on Facebook, choose a pub and share the date – and their beer – with all of their friends.
The campaign was created by TBWA and broke quite some records. The Facebook fanpage made it into the 6% most active pages worldwide, 1 out 20 Belgians visited the website and the amount of fans tripled in 1 day.

Komen Eten is the Flemish version of Come Dine With Me, a format that is broadcast throughout the world. Everyone knows that at the end of the evening contestants give points in the back of the car that drives them home. We used this situation to create a surprising online commercial for the BIVV, the Belgian Institute for Road Safety. We launched the movie with the title “The first zero in Komen Eten” and had it posted on the YouTube channel of Vier, the network that broadcasts the programme. This way the surprise was complete for unsuspecting viewers. Now discover it for yourself.
All the national media, online and offline, picked up the movie immediately. Facebook and Twitter joined in. Even the federal police tweeted the video. After two days it was still the top video on Twitter and YouTube.

Our client, Cape Town Tourism, briefed us to come up with an on-line campaign that also promotes the unexpected side of Cape Town. All the small communities, never-heard of places and unearthed gems that can’t be found on Trip Advisor, Lonely Planet, Expedia, or even Google. So we thought, we can’t send everyone to Cape Town, so let’s send their Facebook profiles instead. They got a virtual, tailor-made Cape Town holiday that exposed them to all the unexpected places, and finally, a few lucky winners got to experience their Facebook profile’s holiday for themselves.

We decided to turn the campaign idea “good intentions don’t save lives” on its head and make people’s intentions count for once. Through a Facebook-app people create a post asking their friends for likes and donate 1 kroner to Doctors without Borders for each like they get. Each collection runs for 48 hours and only likes from your own Facebook-friends count. By setting a maximum amount you can make sure not to go bankrupt – or decide to donate more if your friends are too slow. At the end of each donation people can post a picture saying thank you to all the friends who helped them donate. The donation solution – which is actually now a permanent solution – is still running. So what are you waiting for? Sign up and turn your friends’ likes into donations! www.msf.dk/likes
