The Spudsession

Going head over chips with an iconic brand behaviour for social

The McCain brand are top potato in the freezer aisle, but sadly not so much on the social feed. So that's where we slide in.

Creating an iconic social media behaviour for the brand to bring everyone together who loves a beige buffet as much as us, we called it the Spudsession and created a TOV that spoke spud and plenty of content to appeal to the feed and the fries out there too.

From Feed-Dating to help everyone find their perfect partner in spuds for social, to working with influencers for Valentine's Day to get couples going from roommates to romance by sending their partner a saucy chip pic to spice things up with Gastro Chips. We even asked our followers to award their very favourite friend during the World Cup with their very own 'Golden Oven Glove' award.

Welcome to the Spudsession

Our playful social behaviour on a page set the direction for just the kind of content we'd bake, and how we'd look and sound on social.
