Reese's penetrates autumn marketing overload with football social media contest

The Hershey Company's Reese's brand is appealing to college football fans this season by partnering with popular on-air ESPN personalities to get consumers in the game through social media contests, helping it stand out during the fall marketing frenzy.

College football season is here, and fans are excited to watch their favorite teams and alma maters compete for the championship, prompting Hershey’s to want in on the action by promoting its Reese’s products with sports coverage via social channels. ESPN’s College GameDay Built by the Home Depot hosts Rece Davis and Kirk Herbstreit are teaming up with Reese’s for a social media contest to celebrate with fans and appeal to consumers during an influx of promotional content.

"Social media is an extremely important component in a campaign like this," said Amy Leavitt, marketing director at Briabe Mobile. "Creation of a unified strategy between mobile, social and content is key to brand success.

"Consumers spend a massive amount of time on social networks on their mobile device, where they both consume and share content," she said. "Mobile is convenience and access, social is conversation, and content provides engagement."
