Moe’s is not really a client, they are a family member. After 10 years we have not only watched the brand grow from 100 units to over 580, we have watched our clients children grow up and go off to college.

We work with many Moe’s franchisees at a local and regional level. From DC to Long Island we have helped many restaurant owners increase sales year over year over year. We work closely with both the franchise partners to drive traffic and  increase sales as well as with Moe’s Corporate to continue branding initiatives. We love seeing our clients on the top 50 list and watching the brand grow. 
We’ve been able to maintain these increases annually with an effective mix of TV campaigns, Social/Digital, Print, Sponsorships and Outdoor Media.

 

Brian and his team at Creative Vibe have been an integral part of our company for the last ten years. I can honestly say that without their hard work, vision and loyalty we would not be the company we are today

Live Nation Ticket Master Gift Card Contest 

 

 

With 2014 being the height of live music attendance and the month of August being the peak of Concert/Festival season, Creative Vibe executed an on-site sponsorship for a client group of 12 Moe’s Southwest Grill restaurants with Live Nation at their locally supported venue Nikon Theater at Jones Beach. As part of the agreement we (CVA) were tasked to giveaway Ticketmaster Gift Cards to winners of our choice, in the fashion of our choice. The connection between Moe’s and music industry mogul Live Nation was a no-brainer; pairing the two brands with our target market of a young, cool, music loving audience. Pairing the Moe’s brand with such a dominant group such as Live Nation/Ticketmaster in the music industry was a strategic plan for reaching our target demographic in a long lasting partnership.

 

 

As an ongoing effort to increase our social media presence the main focus of the giveaway would be promoted via major social media outlets (ie: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram), the goal was to give away Live Nation/Ticket Master Giftcards to our target audience of 18-34  to a concert of their choice with a minimal budget to promote it.  A 3rd party landing page was setup to host the contest giveaway where users were required to enter their name and preferred email address with the hopes of being randomly selected in one of four drawings.  Entrants were also granted the opportunity to increase their chance of winning by completing further social actions, thus increasing our exposure.

 To put a monetary value on the success of the contest the client would in theory receive $6,145 in gross value. Factoring in the $600 in Ticketmaster/Live Nation Giftcards, $126 in Ad spend and $67 in the 3rd party hosting tool – the client netted $5,352 in net value.

 

 

The promotion saw the following social media and email database gains during the promotional period:

Total Unique Entries: 2,208 (email addresses collected)

Bonus via Social Sharing

New FB Fans: 986

New Twitter Followers: 594

FB Reach: 52,603

Facebook Share: 451

Twitter Share: 180

 

 

The contest and promotion were exceedingly successful considering a minimal prize and little to no ad spend budget. Execution of piecing together our target market, coinciding with the leader in the music industry market and exploiting the prominence of social media in those segments all lead to success of the contest.
