Popie Jopie

The nonfluencer campaign that put Jopen back on the map

Research showed that not only the brewery needed a boost in popularity, ALL the Jopen in The Netherlands did.

The popularity of the name ‘Joop’ had been dropping significantly in recent years. So we rallied all the remaining Dutchies with the name ‘Joop’, to help MAKE JOOP DOPE AGAIN. We turned each Joop into a super dope influencer by sending them a ‘Popie Jopie’ influencer package. Consisting of supercool Jopen branded merch like a bucket hat, hoodie and Popie Jopie tote bag.

Make Joop Dope Again!

An initiative that was highly appreciated by all Jopen, their family and friends. As almost everybody knows a Joop, people shared and commented like crazy.

Also press and other media loved it, so our rallying cry spread like wildfire. Putting not only Jopen on the map as a young and cool brand, but also boosted the pride of all Jopen in The Netherlands.

Who gives a $#✶♡
Building brands the NEEW way.
Why would I spend my precious time and money on it?

We always put people at the centre everything we create and ask ourselves the question: is what we’re creating truly adding value and relevant to them? Would they care to spend their time and money on it?

Is it worth talking about and would I share it with peers?

Whatever we create should be unique, ownable and distinctive. It should be worth talking about and spark conversations or provoke reactions.
It should be worth sharing as ideas people share with peers, need less paid media to become a success.

Is it a star worthy experience?

We always strive to create 5-star experiences (in the broadest sense of the word). Attractive, appealing, relevant, touching and accessible. A positive-review-magnet if you like. Executed to perfection in every touch point and in all media channels.

Why would people love it?

We build brands people love. Make stuff with impact; stuff that touches them. We find what makes them tick and give them what they love. Things they want and need or didn’t yet know they wanted or needed.
