No campaign is too big or too small.
Back in 2001, Taco Bell decided to test this sentiment – and they proved it right. The Mir space station was preparing to return to Earth after 15 years. The Russian station weighed 150 tons, making it the largest object to ever be brought back to Earth at the time. What kind of franchise would Taco Bell be if it didn’t take advantage of such an unprecedented event?
Taco Bell planted a 40 by 40-foot target in the South Pacific Ocean, where Mir was predicted to land. A purple bullseye with the famous bell logo covered the target, the words “Free Taco Here!” in bold. “If Mir rings our bell, we will offer a free taco to everyone in the U.S.,” said Chris Becker, Taco Bell’s vice president of brand communications.
Behind the scenes, Taco Bell made sure they acquired an insurance policy to cover the price of all those free tacos. Fortunately for Taco Bell, (and unfortunately for taco-loving Americans), no part of the space station hit the target.
As a client, Taco Bell wanted the world’s attention. Even without the promotion being fulfilled, Taco Bell had its fans salivating over the idea of eating their food. With an event as big as a space station making a crash landing on Earth, Taco Bell required a promotion just as thrilling. Announcing free tacos for everybody did the trick.
