There’s A
New King,
And It’s You.
Burger King
After a decade of creative excellence but declining sales, Burger King needed a jolt, so they started listening. Literally.
They opened up the president’s personal phone line so he could hear first-hand to customer's complaints.
After listening to feedback and fixing the Whopper, BK saw an opportunity to promote it on social media by flame grilling the competitor’s CEO who took a weak bite of their new “product”.
Then, they fired the King on national television because there’s a new king, and it’s you.
