Early Findings
DraftKings
In August 2019, DraftKings, a
“
daily fantasy sports betting site
," ran a campaign on TV, out-of-home and digital channels around the beginning of the NFL season.
One TV spot was titled “Making it Reign” and "
show[ed]
how real-world users reacted to winning or losing in actual tournaments that DraftKings had previously hosted across the country." The video can be viewed
here.
The campaign was the first
in-house
campaign created by the DraftKings team.
FanDuel
In 2019, FanDuel ran a TV commercial titled
'A Surprise Party Surprise'.
The commercial featured
"a man [whom]
walks unknowingly into a room where his coworkers had a surprise party waiting for him. The man, who isn't phased by the party, says he knew that his team would cover the point spread, which is why he bet using FanDuel's app." In the commercial, FanDuel advertised a $500 risk-free first bet.
The campaign ran in one airing on NFL Football on CBS in late August 2019. It had an engagement rating of
1.7
and was viewed by 90% of viewers as positive.
