Krispy Kreme Content Marketing Strategy

 I am creating this campaign for Krispy Kreme.
·         My idea is to promote Krispy Kreme coffee. I would like to do it with the help of special combo offers at reasonable rates, for example: one can get a medium cup of coffee with a doughnut just for $3.99, which is never done before. Moreover this can be a new campaign for the company to increase their coffee sales particularly, as Krispy Kreme is more known for its Doughnuts.
·         My audience is particularly Youth specially college and universities.
·         My goal is to make Krispy Kreme more popular on YouTube as they are doing not so good on YouTube. Moreover YouTube is the fastest growing social media site, so it helps to attract more consumers.
·         I am planning of this launching in the coming summers.
·         I am mainly going to promote on Facebook and YouTube as they both are growing really fast in social media industry and have millions of users. Besides that it helps Krispy Kreme to promote their commercials through videos as well as pictures that help them to know about what consumer thinks as well.

·         This is a unique idea as since now no company came in the market with the combo of Coffee and Doughnut at reasonable rates, which helps the company to attract more consumers as these two are the main contents or the products of coffee house.

Dunkin donuts Content Marketing


Awareness in business is very important and it is always result in success. There are various types of tools that are used in business for the promotion of the product. For example- social media.

If would be a part of the company ‘s marketing program, I would launch Dunkin Donuts Campaign with the slogan ‘‘Sweeticious Dunkin”. The purpose of launching this campaign would be to spread awareness related to our company, its new products, its profit and its customers base.

The target customers for Dunkin Donuts would be young adults who are students and who go to work. Because coffee gives energy for studies and hardworking life.

And our objective is about this campaign is to give good services to customers, so that customer base increase and our profit would also increase.

We will promote this campaign on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram social media because people now a days are connected with these social media more. And with these social media we can reach to great number of audience.
