Summary
Facing a seasonal slump in southern Australia, Great Northern launched "The Great Northern Winter Migration" to turn winter-haters into beer drinkers. The campaign, a mockumentary series starring comedian Broden Kelly, positioned the brand as the reward for escaping the cold. Deployed on Meta and TikTok, it strategically tailored content to different audience segments. This approach successfully created a movement that sparked community-led stories and user-generated content, proving that a funny, targeted campaign can boost sales and engagement in even the toughest season. CASE STUDY NOT AVAILABLE.
