A missing community connection
Bud Light is an iconic brand that’s known as “the beer that was brewed in L.A.”. When Bud Light’s parent company, Anheuser-Busch, wanted to reaffirm the brand’s commitment to California’s Hispanic community during the brand’s 35th summer celebrations in L.A., they turned to Viral Nation.
#HechoEnCalifornia
To reach Bud Light’s highly targeted Hispanic audience, Viral Nation devised and led an influencer campaign that leveraged the reach of Californian creators to share their love of Bud Light through Instagram Stories.
We partnered with 11 Hispanic influencers to reinforce Bud Light’s Californian roots with the #HechoEnCalifornia (Made in California) hashtag.
The influencers created fun, engaging content that included Bud Light as part of key moments with friends and family. Using the #HechoEnCalifornia hashtag, creators encouraged their fellow Californians to join in the fun and share themselves enjoying Bud Light.
With prominent Latinx influencers like Solace Rose and Oscar Miranda promoting the Californian connection of America’s best-selling brew, we re-established meaningful connections between Bud Light and the Hispanic community.
