Volkswagen “PoloTag” Social Media Test-Drive Campaign

|

Here is a social media ‘game’ from Volkswagen that offers its participants the promoted car. as the main prize.

It seems Volkswagen is going all out with its latest campaign. Introducing “PoloTag”, a real-time social media ‘game’ which challenges people to identify the new Polo around a specified route, tag it on Twitter and test drive it. It’s that simple.

The campaign will take six days, across three major cities in South Africa. The participant who drove it for the longest without being tagged will take the new Polo. This campaign is very creative indeed. It has two direct and unique advantages: 1) Creating some social buzz around the new car, and 2) Getting people to test drive the car.
