The Brief

Miracle Whip is all about making good things happen. But this time, we’ve decided to whip up miracles outside of the kitchen. The Miracle Machine is an online hub with one simple objective: to get people and their friends and their friends’ friends working together to make miracles—big or small—for those who need them the most.

Creative Execution

The Miracle Machine was the first app that had been created for the sole purpose of making a difference for the less fortunate. Customized options were indicated on how one can help, either through directly contributing or spreading the word. With everyone pitching in and becoming part it, the Miracle Machine and its online community successfully made 12 miracles happen in 12 days.

Describe the creative solution to the brief/objective.

To set the wheels in motion, a Facebook application was launched to make 12 miracles happen in 12 days—one each day for various causes. For the 12th miracle, the Miracle Machine launched its very own website. Open to all organizations, the Miracle Machine is an ongoing project where people can come together online and combine resources to make miracle happen.

Results

Without any other communication effort or in-store push or promotions, a little community hub of miracles gave way to a groundswell of little miracles. Facebook fans reached 1, 656 and resulted in overall 11, 935 total logged in page views. Miracle Whip grew by 8% in 2010 (with its major retailers growing as high as 25%), selling way above expectations (+17% vs. December target.) But more importantly, Miracle Machine and its online community were able to successfully whip up 12 miracles in 12 days.
