For the “Blaze Your Trail” campaign, NTWRK aligned Kingsford with celebrity jeweler Ben Baller to drop the ultimate grilling kit featuring a golden Everdure barbecue grill and luxe grilling accessories. In an exciting NTWRK episode, users tuned in to see Ben Baller & renowned chef Nyesha Arrington whip up delicious tacos using the ultra-exclusive grill and accessories.
My role as the lead strategist at NTWRK was to help Kingsford connect to multicultural millennial & gen-z consumers. I identified resonating talent, built the product & content strategy, and determined how best to insert the brand into culture through fostering meaningful engagement & massive awareness.
