FUNYUNS / Digital Campaign



Frito Lay and the Funyuns brand hadn’t advertised in decades. They wanted to increase sales for the classic yet stale brand. 


Idea: Create a personality the target could identify with. We  tapped an everyday guy and Funyuns lover to run the brand. He’s going to need a lot of help from social media fans and followers. Can he do it? We’re betting he can.

Funyuns, the value brand we all grew up with decided they would like to create a digital campaign to communicate with millennials. What a great opportunity to create stellar work and content for the iconic underground brand with decades of brand loyalty. What was created was a short film, an article in the Onion, 6 engagment  videos, and socia media post to engage the audience, create massie awareness, and have a conversation with lifelong friends. We found chemistry in a bag.

Overall, this digital campaign performance was a success. The play rate for this series was out of the roof, and watch time was also incredibly strong. The campaign generated the brand a 35% increase in sales.
