15,000 samples across Manhattan in days
College Marketing Co. deployed a street sampling squad across Manhattan to put Skinny Mixes directly in consumers hands. Our ambassadors hit Union Square, Times Square, and SoHo with branded coolers and mobile sampling stations, creating high-energy interactions that drove immediate product trial and social media buzz. The blitz format was built for density: small, fast-moving teams positioned in the highest foot-traffic corridors in the city, sampling continuously and steering every interaction toward trial and a social post. No booth, no waiting for the crowd to come to us, the team went to the crowd. The numbers tell the story: more than 15,000 samples distributed, over 8,000 direct consumer interactions, and 500+ social media posts generated around the activation. For a challenger beverage brand, that is a full market introduction executed at street level in a matter of days.
