Client: Apu Apustaja
Industry: Blockchain & Cryptocurrency (Memecoins)
Campaign Focus: Digital Out-of-Home Advertising (DOOH)
Platform: LED Truck Campaign during the 2024 Paris Olympics
Duration: 8 Hours of Exclusive Plays
Overview: Apu Apustaja and the Memecoin Movement
Apu Apustaja, a vibrant player in the memecoin sector, seamlessly fuses internet meme culture with blockchain technology to create a unique cryptocurrency experience. In an increasingly competitive industry, Apu needed a marketing strategy that would stand out during a global event—the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Their goal was pretty clear: boost awareness, enhance engagement, and stabilize their sales metrics worldwide.
To achieve this, Apu partnered with CryptoVirally, leveraging our Digital Out-of-Home Advertising (DOOH) services. Specifically, by getting Apu on a LED truck campaign in the bustling streets of Paris for an entire day during the 2024 World Olympic Games.
Challenges
1. Massive Competition During the Olympics:
The Olympics attracts brands from every corner of the world, saturating the market with marketing noise. Apu Apustaja needed a campaign that not only cut through this clutter but also captured the spirit of the event.
2. Time-Sensitive Execution with Route Challenges:
With just 8 hours of playtime during a one-day campaign, there was no room for error—every second had to count. Adding to the complexity, several roads and routes were restricted or blocked by the Paris municipality and police due to the heightened security and logistics of the Olympics. It seemed increasingly challenging to turn the dream of the Apu LED truck into a reality.
3. Global Audience with Varied Interests:
Memecoins appeal to a niche audience, yet the campaign needed to resonate with both crypto enthusiasts and a broader Olympic audience.
CryptoVirally’s Strategic Implementation
1. Customized DOOH Approach
Our team crafted a highly targeted LED truck route, ensuring the truck would be prominently visible at key Olympic venues, fan zones, and high-traffic areas. The dynamic visuals displayed:
- Apu’s logo and unique figure;
- Interactive QR codes leading to Apu’s website and social platforms;
- Short, punchy memes that reflected the Apu brand identity, while sparking curiosity.
2. Precision-Timed Content
We synchronized the content to align with Olympic peak moments, such as medal ceremonies and prime event hours, maximizing visibility. Our team swiftly adapted, meticulously mapping out alternative routes and focusing on high-traffic areas that were accessible. This ensured the Apu LED truck garnered maximum visibility despite the challenges, turning potential obstacles into opportunities for strategic placement.
3. Real-Time Social Media Amplification
In collaboration with Apu’s community team, we aimed to drive live engagement by encouraging fans to spot and share images/videos of the truck using campaign hashtags. This was destined to created an organic buzz beyond the physical campaign.
