WE GOT THE NATION LOVING GREGGS COFFEE

THE CHALLENGE
Drive coffee sales by showcasing the quality and breadth of choice while highlighting the new addition of the flat white.

PEOPLE-FIRST INSIGHT
Choosing the perfect coffee is like finding a lover – everyone is different, and there are lots of different attributes to make yours the one for you.

THE STORY
Our ‘Get Yours’ campaign had a simple message: get it hot, get it fast, get it flat, get it on its own, get it with something else – it doesn’t matter, just… #GetYours at Greggs.

To launch the campaign, we created videos of Greggs coffee range brought to life as stereotypical lovers in order to dramatise the characteristics of the coffee. The convenient short espresso became a small but quick Italian man; the flat white was brought to life as an uber-trendy hipster, obsessed with Instagramming his daily fix.

We also created a series of GIFs playing on inescapably cheesy dating one-liners, such as ‘Hold the sugar, you’re sweet enough for me’.

To reach a wider audience, we invited key coffee connoisseurs and online Greggs fans to share how they ‘get theirs’, in exchange for free coffee.

THE OUTCOME

Greggs now sell over 1m cups of coffee every week. 2 million social impressions. 2.4% across Facebook and Twitter - industry beating engagement rate.
