#Overdeliver Fantasy Football

Cinema

Let the pizza be with you. Trucks outside of cinemas will be delivering pizza to the fans in line for the upcoming blockbusters, (like the upcoming Star War film,) and taking photos of the best costumes in line. Once the theatre is filled, our “ad” will appear, showcasing individual overdeliver moments of attendees in costumes, camping out, etc. MEDIA RECOMMENDATIONS: Event buses will visit places where crowds gather -the hottest movie premiers, colleges, NCAA pregame tailgating, and much more. Other examples of “waiting overdeliver” moments will be at premieres for Minons, Spectre 007, and Mocking Jay Part 2.

Activity Flowchart

STRATEGIC FOCUS

26


Ongoing Quantitative Tracking

Measurements & Evaluation

Our benchmark quantitative Awareness-Attitudes-Usage study has already been fielded. Midpoint and post campaign research phases will assess the impact of the re-brand communication, new menu, attitudinal shifts, purchase intent, and competitive comparisons nationwide.

27

Qualitative and Post Purchase Quantitative Work - Stores & Millennials We will conduct millennial focus groups and interviews before and halfway through the campaign to measure success of the new menu. The app or text message will prompt customers to submit a quick survey about their experience an hour after the driver drops off the pizza, so the customer has time to gauge their experience completely. The survey will offer a free order of breadsticks on their next purchase for completion.

Social Media Monitoring & Brand Engagement Metrics

We will be measuring not just ROI, but ROE (Return On Engagement). Our social media community managers will be assessing not only what is said, but when and how. Days of the week, topics, offers, activations, rewards invitations and more will be assessed for engagement impact. Sentiment, retweets, shares, likes, views, and follows will all be included in the measurements.

Experiential Metrics

#Overdeliver experiential stunts and the signature Overdelivery Project event will be measured by far more than attendance figures and entries to win. Social media mentions, game downloads, shares, likes as well as PR /publicity coverage will all contribute to total impressions and accountability.

Digital Analytics/KPIs

Potential Optimizations

Potential Pitfalls

We will measure not only the traditional CPCs, CTRs, etc. -- but also the length of time spent and the outcome of the time spent on the digital forums. Key performance indicators will include:

◗ SEO/SEM keywords will be monitored daily and altered to fit current trends ◗ Partnerships may be added or changed as new bloggers and vloggers rise to popularity ◗ Sites chosen for rich media and pre-roll will be also be observed and tweaked to accommodate shifting in trends on and offline ◗ Media buys will also be monitored for performance and adjustments as needed

◗ TV show cancellations will be handled by re-allocating budget dollars to better performing programming ◗ Events may get canceled due to weather or unforeseen problems. Rescheduling or re-planning will occur in this scenario. ◗ Vending machines may have technical problems. Machines will be monitored to make sure that they are operational and being used. Non-functioning machines will be repaired, or moved to higher traffic locations.

◗ Length of stay on web and mobile dashboard ◗ How often customers use the app for ordering and interacting ◗ Number of orders phone versus digital ◗ Units per-transaction phone versus digital ◗ Number of payment splits sent through app ◗ Measure shares converted from the app and comments sent from app through activity
