McDonald's reality TV-inspired campaign turns kiosks into confessionals
"McDonald's is transforming a component of reality TV known for sobbing and scandal into an opportunity to celebrate early employment experiences, including those by the 1 in 8 Americans who have worked at the chain. Central to the campaign is a confessional booth that combines the camera and touchscreen of a McDonald's ordering kiosk with seating and soundproof tiles."
"The booth will be taken to New York, Austin, Texas, Pittsburgh and Chicago, with special guests at each stop, including Carthen in New York. The reality TV star and an actual McDonald's crew member appear in a 90-second launch video detailing how their first jobs gave them the skills and opportunities for lifelong success."
"Consumers who can't use the confessional in person can share first job stories via Instagram or LinkedIn for a chance to be featured on the chain's YouTube channel. Plus, McDonald's will roll out social content on multiple platforms as part of the campaign."
McDonald's introduced the First Job Confessional campaign capitalizing on the statistic that 1 in 8 Americans have worked at the chain.
