The Reese Society

The Reese Society is a social society of micro-influencers. This was NOT our campaign to induct dedicated Reese fans into The Reese Society.

RECRUITMENT

We leveraged every social touchpoint we could find to get fans to join our secret society. We even hacked our own ads to share our recruitment message.

We hacked every posting format on instagram to create interactive posts that pushed fans to our recruitment link. At the link, they were asked to show us how much they love Reese to be considered for The Reese Society.

We even buried the link in a 100 frame instagram story.

Our efforts worked, hundreds of fans went above and beyond to join our secret society.

They shared fan art, wrote poems and songs, even stacked Reese on their heads and painted their rooms orange. Our hashtag has over 1,900 posts from members and potential recruits.

INDUCTING NEW MEMBERS

Once we selected our new members, it was time to recite the Reese Society pledge in front of the masses. They sent us their recorded pledges and we broadcast them on Instagram live.

New recruits got a specialty induction kit to show off on their pages.

CELEBRATING OUR BIGGEST FANS

For fans who went above and beyond to show us their love, we partnered with them to make their content even cooler and promote them across social channels. @Bridgetnailsit made this incredible Reese inspired nail art design. We partnered with her to film a full-on nail tutorial.

@EmilyBickell created a beautiful oil painting of Reese cups, so we displayed it on a billboard in her hometown of Calgary, AB.

CELEBRATING ALL OUR NEW MEMBERS

As a special surprise for all of our Reese Society members, we partnered with Austin Ware better known as @thetiktokdrummer or @austinwaredrums for a holiday performance on Instagram Live.
