01
The Brief

Macca's sauces have a history of causing a bit of a ruckus. In 2022, McDonald's was bringing out not one but four special sauces (plus a couple of absolute fan favourites) and we knew we had to give the biggest fans, and only the biggest fans, a chance to win their very own.

02
The Insight

When the audience already cares more than the brand expects, the move is to reward the biggest fans publicly, and let everyone else watch them earn it.

03
The Idea

We turned the sauce drop into a quest, designed to make the biggest fans the visible heroes of the moment.

Strategy in one line
Reward the biggest fans publicly. Let everyone else watch them earn it.
04
The Outcome

Sauce Quest ran nationally as a fan-rewarding mechanic across the limited-edition sauce releases.
