How STN’s Custom Hotline Generated Massive Call Volumes and Earned Extensive Media Coverage from Mashable, AOL, SyFy, and Collider 

Along with the launch of a B.S. Hotline, the project included a custom SMS experience where fans could text in and chat live with their favorite armchair detective from the show. STN built out a custom script for both the call-in hotline and the SMS that led participants through a series of storylines and adventures that introduced the Poker Face characters. Our team promoted this campaign through a comprehensive content strategy and thorough social media management.

To create awareness for the hotline, STN partnered with Peacock to develop a social media campaign that engaged several properties including The Office, Parks and Rec, and the show’s cast and creators.

Our team developed custom content that was in line with the witty and gritty Poker Face brand, and this content was shared across their social media accounts. This comprehensive social media strategy ensured that the campaign was widely promoted, leading to substantial levels of engagement and organic reach.

To give the campaign additional momentum, STN scripted and produced a cryptic infomercial that ran on streaming platforms and was part of a paid campaign. Our team also executed OHH creatives that included billboards and wild postings in Los Angeles and New York.

The Results

As a result of our innovative approach, the creatives sparked conversations that broke through digital clutter, gaining press coverage on platforms including Mashable, AOL, SYFY, and Collider. 

Overall, STN Digital’s 360 marketing campaign for Peacock’s Poker Face demonstrated the power of a comprehensive approach that combined creative out-of-the-box thinking, social media strategy, and innovative paid and organic tactics.
