Highlight the Swiss Chalet retail range and deliver key messaging through an activation at the National Women’s Show in Toronto by offering an unequaled consumer experience

challenge

In order to stand out from 500 other exhibitors and offer something consumers will hold on to and remember for an extended period of time, we had to think outside of the box. Creating a fun game paired with prizes they can bring home, a raffle they will think about winning for days to come, and humorous entertainment made us one of the most popular booths at the show.

Participants were allowed to play the game only after a ballot coupon was filled and key messaging was delivered. Due to the unique experience, prolonged interaction, branded products they left with, and strategic delivery of information, consumers will still have Swiss Chalet in the back of their minds long after the show is over.
