When Coca-Cola Europacific Partners teamed up with Nectar360 for Diet Coke’s The Devil Wears Prada 2 campaign, the ambition was simple: turn a major cultural moment into an experience customers wanted to join.

By connecting loyalty insights, retail media and a cinema reward, we helped turn excitement around the film into customer participation, purchase and measurable growth.

The Challenge

Cultural partnerships can attract plenty of attention. But how do you turn that attention into action?

Coca-Cola Europacific Partners wanted to create an experience that felt relevant and rewarding for customers, while making it easy for them to take part.

It also needed a clear view of how customers engaged with the campaign, what they went on to buy and which touchpoints delivered the strongest results.

The Solution

We created a connected customer journey that brought together inspiration, purchase and reward. 

Using loyalty insights, we identified relevant audiences and reached them with messaging designed to build excitement. Onsite and in-store media then kept Diet Coke front of mind throughout the shopping journey. 

Customers who bought qualifying Diet Coke products could unlock a cinema reward. This gave them another reason to take part and created a clear connection between the film partnership, the purchase and the reward. 

The campaign was powered by Nectar360 Pollen, bringing audiences, activation and measurement together. This gave Coca-Cola Europacific Partners a clearer view of how customers moved through the journey and which touchpoints helped drive sales.
