Jack Daniel's NBA
Making an existing sponsorship meaningful
Year: 2018
Capabilities: FCB/RED. FCBX.

Problem

As an existing NBA sponsor, Jack Daniel's was struggling to get people to pay attention.

Insight

Fans in the mentality of visiting an NBA game weren't naturally making the connection to Jack Daniel's.

Strategy

Instead of trying to play in their world, invite them to play in ours.

Solution

Introducing the Jack Daniel's Legends NBA camp.

We invited consumers to enter a sweepstakes where the prize was a trip to a hands-on basketball camp at the Jack Daniel's distillery in Lynchburg, Tennesee. A place to play b-ball with NBA legends and a place to learn legendary whiskey-making secrets.
