This  week’s  digital  marke1ng  success  story  is  about  Wendy’s  extra  spicy  Twi:er  account.

What  We  Learn  From  Wendy’s  

How  social  media  can  transform  a  brand  into  something  beyond  its  products.

Page 4: Wendy's Twitter Burn Shows Just how Spicy They Can Be

Example  

Their  savage  Twi:er  exchange  with  someone  that  picked  the  wrong  day  to  “tough  talk”.

CAUTION  

What  you  are  about  to  see  is  incredibly  hot.    Make  sure  to  have  some  milk  or  celery  nearby  (just  in  case).

Part  1  -­‐  The  Setup

Part  2  -­‐  The  SBng

Page 8: Wendy's Twitter Burn Shows Just how Spicy They Can Be

At  this  point,  you  have  just  jumped  out  of  the  plane  and  there  is  no  way  to  fall  up.    Even  the  great  ones  have  admi:ed  defeat.  

If  you  are  Thuggy-­‐D,  just  ignore  Wendy’s  last  Tweet,  pull  your  parachute  and  live  to  troll  another  day.

However,  Thuggy-­‐D  was  never  one  to  play  it  safe.      

It’s  a  bold  strategy,  let’s  see  if  it  pays  off  for  him.

Part  3  -­‐  The  Death  Blow

The  McGriddle  hath  betrayed  Thuggy-­‐D.  

He  ended  up  dele1ng  his  Twi:er  account,  then  brought  it  back  a  short  1me  later  with  a  different  picture.

For  once,  the  good  guys  got  a  win  and  took  out  a  Twi:er  troll.

Page 14: Wendy's Twitter Burn Shows Just how Spicy They Can Be

The  safe  play  is  normally:  

“We’re  so  sorry  to  hear  that!  Send  us  a  direct  message  and  we’ll  help  you  out.”

Page 15: Wendy's Twitter Burn Shows Just how Spicy They Can Be

But  Wendy’s  took  a  troll  to  task  and  scored  a  viral  Tweet  that  was  shared  almost  10,000  1mes  and  amassed  over  26,000  likes.

Page 16: Wendy's Twitter Burn Shows Just how Spicy They Can Be

CNN  even  did  a  drama1c  reenactment  of  the  Twi:er  exchange.

Page 17: Wendy's Twitter Burn Shows Just how Spicy They Can Be

Prac1cally  every  news  outlet  couldn’t  wait  to  serve  up  their  own  version  of  the  story—with  an  order  of  double  entendres  and  side  of  puns.

The  Bigger  Picture  

Wendy’s  Became  Much  More  Than  Another  Fast  Food  Joint  on  Twi:er  

Page 21: Wendy's Twitter Burn Shows Just how Spicy They Can Be

When  your  Twi:er  burn  gets  labeled  the  “Social  Media  Own  of  the  Year”,  your  account  will  live  in  social  media  infamy.  

And  make  a  lot  of  people  hungry  too.

Page 22: Wendy's Twitter Burn Shows Just how Spicy They Can Be

Let’s  put  Wendy’s  into  context:  

1.You  don’t  go  there  because  you  want  a  gourmet  meal.  

2.It’s  cheap  food  that  fills  you  up  on  a  Saturday  night.  

3.Just  like  McDonalds  or  Burger  King,  they  sell  a  $1  burger

Page 23: Wendy's Twitter Burn Shows Just how Spicy They Can Be

Please  don’t  tell  them  I  wrote  that.

Page 24: Wendy's Twitter Burn Shows Just how Spicy They Can Be

Yet  people,  myself  included,  go  to  their  Twi:er  profile  just  to  read  their  Tweets.

Page 25: Wendy's Twitter Burn Shows Just how Spicy They Can Be

Wendy’s  Twi:er  humor  catapulted  them  way  beyond  just  another  cheap  place  for  less  than  stellar  food  (that  doesn’t  get  back  to  them).  

People  don’t  care  what  they  sell,  they  just  want  to  buy  it.

Page 26: Wendy's Twitter Burn Shows Just how Spicy They Can Be

Here’s  what  I  mean  by  that:  

I  own  all  Apple  tech  products  (computer,  phone,  tablet  etc…).    I’m  an  Apple  fanboy.    Since  their  brand  is  so  strong  in  my  mind,  I  buy  whatever  they  sell.

Page 27: Wendy's Twitter Burn Shows Just how Spicy They Can Be

So  here’s  this  fast  food  restaurant  and  people  aren’t  talking  about  their  burgers  or  “natural  cut”  french  fries,  they  just  want  whatever  Wendy’s  offers.

Every  company  dreams  of  these  moments.

Other  Thoughts  

Can  your  company  pull  this  off  too?

Page 31: Wendy's Twitter Burn Shows Just how Spicy They Can Be

I  know  I  can’t,  I  don’t  have  the  stones  or  wit  for  it  (    ),  but  do  you?  

Something  like  this  is  hard  and  you  have  to  keep  it  up.    There’s  no  halfway  in,  you’re  either  all  in  or  nothing.  Consistency  in  voice  and  message  is  a  common  trait  of  successful  social  media  accounts.  

When  you  have  spare  1me,  check  out  Wendy’s  Twi:er  account,  it’s  s1ll  as  sassy  as  ever.
