There are few footballers as tough as Mario Mandzukic out on the pitch, but might Mario have a soft centre? Last year, in an unusual and thoroughly entertaining experiment, the Croatian striker was shown the cutest possible images that fans could find on the internet in a bid to bring out his gentle side. “No Good” was his constant reply.
The experiment to soften up Mario may have failed, but the social media campaign, launched in collaboration with We Are Social, was a resounding success, triggering 43,760 mentions on Twitter, 23 million total reach and 52,000 new subscribers on Juventus.com, besides an abundance of external media attention.
Today the club is proud to announce that ‘Tender Mister #NoGood’ has won the silver award for the category ‘Single Platform Campaign – Social Media’ at the Clio Sports Awards, an annual awards ceremony which acknowledges innovation and creative excellence in advertising, design and communication.
Very good!
