BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE MKTG COLLABS - We love studying the marketing collabs for massive launches. We think it’s important to know what’s going on in the industry, what marketing teams are doing and watching how it impacts ticket sales. Hopefully by studying their campaign, it inspires your own. You’d have to be dead to not have seen the impressive and extensive marketing campaign for the “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” launch. They organically hit a lot of demos via these partnerships. They reached the broadest audiences with Alexa custom alarm, Zoom virtual backgrounds, Progressive Insurance and BeetleMax x Carmax. They covered the food & beverage market with Denny’s Afterlife menu to Fanta drinks and Crumbl cookies. They hit the luxury and fashion market via Faberge and Rodarte lines, and embraced NYX custom make-up line and promoted many beauty and fashion influencers. They announced a fun Roblox outfits & accessories line and sent the shrinkers on tour! This campaign was to die for!
