THE SOLUTION

Attracting customers with an Instagram experience

To promote its new plant-based menu item, the NEW LUNCHEON Meat McMuffin with Egg, McDonald’s Hong Kong ran an Instagram campaign with the end goal of distributing 100,000 new menu items. McDonald’s Hong Kong chose to use Instagram, because it recognized that its core younger audience frequently uses this platform.

The campaign used Instagram Messaging to carry out the campaign. People who followed the McDonald’s Hong Kong Instagram profile and commented “I’m a Green Lover” on the campaign post were sent an automated message via Instagram Direct with a unique QR code that could be redeemed at any McDonald’s Hong Kong outlet.

By using Instagram to distribute QR codes, McDonald’s Hong Kong was able to innovate and expand the coupon redemption experience beyond the McDonald’s app. This automated process also allowed McDonald’s Hong Kong to reach more customers efficiently while streamlining operations and reducing the amount of work required to distribute the QR codes.

McDonald’s Hong Kong’s Instagram campaign drove high engagement and offline sales. The campaign ran from April 28–May 8, 2022 and achieved:

  • 103,063 total direct messages triggered by Instagram Messaging
  • 62% of coupons distributed via Chat were redeemed
  • 2.5X increase in followers for the McDonald’s Hong Kong Instagram profile
  • 37% engagement rate for the campaign post
