Piczo kicks off freerunner push

Marketing 29-Aug-07

Piczo, the social network for teenagers, is launching a national experiential campaign to drive traffic to its website.

The brand is sponsoring a team of parkour freerunners to tour the UK,
distributing branded merchandise encouraging consumers to join the Piczo
online community.

The initiative is intended to drive teenage web users to a dedicated

Piczo Parkour profile page where they can interact with the team and

learn some of their skills.

The Parkour campaign forms part of a wider promotional strategy aimed at
boosting Piczo's 12.5m monthly user base.

The social network recently tied with Penguin to encourage teenagers to
design book covers. It also launched a competition with teen-girl
magazine Bliss giving users the chance to win a day with a celebrity
photographer.

Piczo is stepping up its commercial strategy, with the creation of a
research group comprising its most active members for brands to use in
gauging consumer opinions.
