YNYWYH Twitter Campaign

For the UK launch of Snickers’ global campaign ‘You’re Not You When You’re Hungry’ we used Twitter. We asked five celebrities to post a series of out- of character tweets. As we’d hoped, this produced widespread confusion, with numerous replies and retweets. Each celebrity then tweeted a picture of themselves eating a Snickers together with the campaign line. In all, just 25 tweets were posted, but the campaign received significant coverage online,in newspapers, on radio and TV – and was even mentioned during a debate in the House of Commons.
