Mexico



The launch of the Smartphone GALAXY S4 originated thousands of conversations.



The Brand

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. leads the global digital market in high-tech electronics manufacturing, and digital media through innovative, reliable products (including everything from components in our PCs and mobile phones to green batteries) and services. Samsung has offices in 79 countries, including Mexico.

Challenge

During the product launch presentation, the brand used the hashtag #GalaxyS4, which became a national organically Trending Topic , which showed the interest from the community and the oportunity to capitalize this existing intent, in a creative and attractive way.

Solution

How can an electronics brand capture attention and spark conversations around a product launch?

To build momentum for this big event, @samsungmobilemx created a product-focused campaign with the main goal of engaging the Twitter community.

To kick off the campaign, @samsungmobilemx used Promoted Accounts to drive general brand awareness and build its following. Promoted Tweets focused on driving interest in the Galaxy device and included hashtags like #ConUnGalaxyS4, #UnGalaxyS4Para and #LoMejorDelGalaxyS4Es.

The @samsungmobilemx Social Team knew from previous experience that its followers were most active on Tuesday evenings from 4:30pm to 7:30pm. The brand took advantage of this by using Promoted Tweets to launch a contest encouraging users to tweet about the Galaxy for a chance to win one for themselves.
