15. BRANDED COFFEE TABLE BOOK?
“Something desirable, something that a
customer will keep on their coffee table
along with their books and magazines…”
http://www.the-cma.com/news/learn-from-the-glossies-objects-of-desire
“The print publication creates a cover-to-
cover experience rich in context. And it’s
an artifact that you can leave on a coffee
table and share or return to again.”
http://fsewtheblog.wordpress.com/
19. “Coffee brand Douwe Egberts
got into a random conversation
with The Dolphin Pub in
Hackney, which has a strong
and distinctly individual Twitter
feed. The two came together
and a highly entertaining
conversation ensues. I love the
way that @DouweEgbertsuk just
rolled with it and responded
to @The_Dolphin_Pub. (…)
I think it’s a good reminder that
brands should be open and not
closed when it comes to social
media and that way they will
more likely reap the benefits of
any opportunities to engage
that come their way.”

OZONE COFFEE: EDUTAINING CONTENT
MEETS PREMIUM CONVERSATION MANAGEMENT
• 80:20 rule: Only talking about themselves 20% of the time
• Relevant and ‘edutaining’ content on blog, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram:
• coffee awards/contest
• supplier stories (Costa Rica, El Salvador and Brazil)
• some candid Instagram shots of Latte art
and their über trendy Taranaki and London cafés
• ‘the odd shot’ of their great staff
• customer experience photos
• articles about who they've sponsored
• articles on blends and origins
• brew methods and ways to get great coffee
• frequent use of humour
• something new on average twice a week
• They thank customer for tweets and comments,
and go the extra mile if a blogger takes the time to do a review
• They understand content curation, repurposing web content
and tailoring it to their two audience groups on Twitter and Facebook.
• And “they’re loading their site with SEO keywords.”
“Not only are Ozone leveraging their
supplier's CSR angle and reassuring their
customers that they have quality, but they
are taking the time to educate their clients
and building the full story of their brand.
From expert caring staff and roasting
processes through to their sponsorship of
rafting and what is an emotional story
around their cofounder.”
Ozone’s well rounded loyalty loop
that their content is balanced across:
• SEO and social media based attraction
• Nurturing their existing customers
with info and educative pieces.
• And retaining them with new ideas,
community Instagram shots and sharing.
23. STARBUCKS’ “INSTAGRAM-CENTRIC
SOCIAL MEDIA STRATEGY”
Starbucks is almost definitely the brand making the
absolute most out of its Instagram-centric social media
strategy. Starbucks strives to be seen as a local-
friendly, socially conscious coffee shop that happens
to have, oh, a few locations, rather than just another
large corporate chain. In this particular image, we see
bags of beans, for sale in the shops, that subtly boast
the Starbucks logo, and a tray of samples of this
coffee, conceivably headed for the counter of the
tweeter’s local Starbucks location to be handed out to
individuals. The coffee is unaltered, and the
background is dimmed to black, allowing Starbucks to
assert that when it comes to its brand, two things
matter: the coffee and the customers’ opinions.

24. “Stumptown relies heavily on visual content; almost every tweet and Facebook
post includes a photo, whether it’s from Instagram or not. (…) The most engaging
posts on Instagram are those that are most authentic to Stumptown’s historically
DIY work ethic, aesthetic, and company spirit, i.e those that have “nothing to do
with coffee, but speak volumes about coffee (or Stumptown) at the same time.”

savvy coffee content managers know that
capitalizing on this common visceral reaction to
the beverage provides a rich source of content.”

street art campaign – branded video – homepage – blog(s) – youtube (channel) - “They set up a street art campaign in the
Flat Iron District in New York City, building a tree out of cups of coffee in variegated shades. Each person that put their cup
down traded in their paper cup for a reusable mug or tumbler. The promo asks: "If everyone made one small change, could
we change the world?" The spot suggests: "One person changing can save trees, together we can save forests."

“It began, as so many things do
in life, with a cup of coffee. One
day, Japanese artist Tomoko
Shintani decided to draw on
hers. The result is a series of
engaging illustrations that flow
from Starbucks coffee cups.
"There was no particular
reason or idea. I just drew on a
cup because it was 'paper,'"
Shintani says. The resulting
doodle, which integrated the
Starbucks cup that helped fuel
its creation, begat a new hobby
and a whimsical series of
images that have captured the
attention of Instagram, and the
Internet by extension.”

_using_social_co_creation_contests
“Social co-creation contests are online
contests sponsored by a company (and
often hosted by a vendor) whereby a
question or problem is posed to an
audience, with a prize given as an
incentive for participation. (…)
Starbucks put up the $20,000 prize
money, and betacup partner jovoto (a
social co-creation contest vendor)
launched the contest to its cultivated
audience of creatives. (…)
The actual winning entry was dubbed
"The Karma Cup," its idea was simple.
At the register of each Starbucks store
will sit a small chalkboard. Each time a
person brings in a reusable cup for their
beverage, a box is checked off -- and
every 10th beverage is free. (…) This
effort shows that product strategy
issues big and small can be addressed
via co-creation.”

app for their (3m) Coffee Club
members. The app gives members
direct access to their account from
within Facebook. It will also mean
unregistered Coffee Club members
the chance to register their card
within the platform. As part of a
promotional drive, 10 million loyalty
points will be given away on
Facebook. (…) When you have saved
up enough you can pay for your
Costa order with your points. (…)
The app will help members to see
what they can use the points for in
a platform they are familiar with
and will of course give Costa some
rather valuable data about their
most devoted customers too.”

Instagram users involved with the company’s new mobile payment app, while also winning some user-generated content. The
company asked customers to decorate coffee cups in Halloween costumes and share the images on Twitter and Instagram with
the hashtag “dressDD.” The most creative designs received a free $100 mobile gift card. The campaign successfully leverages the
brand’s existing popularity, along with social’s power and general consumer interest in mobile payments.”

Starbucks has a mobile app that rewards users with stars and status levels. It give users incentives to
keep playing. Every time customers walk into a Starbucks and use the app to pay for their coffee, they
earn a star. Once they get a certain number of stars, they move on to different levels. The green level,
for example, entitles users to free refills on brewed coffee or tea. The app has progress bars and
incentives throughout to motivate users. Additionally, users can sync their app to their Facebook
account, turning this into a social loyalty play, since users can now share their progress with friends.
