Burger King named most Effective Marketer & Brand, IPG is most effective holding company, Wieden + Kennedy earns title of most effective independent agency in US
NEW YORK, October 1, 2020 — Burger King’s “Whopper Detour” won the Grand Effie at the virtual Ideas That Work: 2020 Effie US Summit & Awards Gala this evening.
The campaign, created by FCB/New York and FCB/RED, won the top prize for marketing effectiveness for a 2018 effort that relied on geofencing to redirect customers to McDonald’s to get a Whopper for one cent using the chain’s redesigned mobile app. When drivers approached McDonald’s locations, they received a mobile notification with the one-cent Whopper promotion. When they placed the order, the app then directed them away from McDonald’s towards the nearest Burger King. The effort led to Burger King hitting #1 in the iOS/Android app stores, generating $15m incremental value and an astounding 37:1 ROI. Alison Brod Marketing & Communications, MullenLowe U.S., O Positive, and Mackcut contributed to the work.
Burger King’s “Whopper Detour” becomes the first Grand Effie winner from the Commerce & Shopper category, a competition that recognizes the most effective integrated campaigns designed to engage shoppers and guide the purchase process. “Whopper Detour” also won Effies in the Marketing Innovation Solutions, E-Commerce and Omni-Channel Shopper Solution categories.
The Grand Effie was chosen from the nine highest-scoring Gold Effie Award winners, including “DNA Discounts,” by Aeromexico, Ogilvy Mexico and Ogilvy Colombia; “New Coke-Stranger Things,” by The Coca-Cola Company/Coca-Cola and Wieden+Kennedy; “Scent By Glade,” by SC Johnson/Glade and Ogilvy; “Lysol Laundry,” by Reckitt Benckiser/Lysol and McCann New York; “Changing the Game,” by Microsoft and McCann New York; “Back-to-School Essentials,” by Sandy Hook Promise and BBDO New York; “Gracie,” by Street Grace & BBDO Atlanta; and “Stop Traffick,” by Street Grace and BBDO Atlanta.
Grand Jury co-chair Raja Rajamannar, Chief Marketing & Communications Officer at Mastercard, said: “The decision was very clear. This campaign stood out at many levels. It literally checked off every single box that we were looking for, which forms the criteria for evaluating the best campaign. The idea was great. The execution was great. And the results were terrific.”
Added co-chair Andrea Diquez, CEO of Saatchi & Saatchi NY, “I agree. It proved that creativity can build business. It was such a brave idea and it was so well executed; incredibly creative. It was just a winner from the beginning.”
