Operational Impact
The #whatsyourname campaign was a significant success for Starbucks, both in terms of its reception and its impact. The campaign was able to effectively highlight the importance of identity and acceptance, and it resonated strongly with the audience, as evidenced by the high TV completion viewing rate and the overwhelmingly positive sentiment in media coverage. The campaign also won several awards, further attesting to its success. Moreover, the campaign helped Starbucks to strengthen its brand as a progressive and inclusive company, and it demonstrated the company's commitment to supporting under-represented communities. The partnership with the charity Mermaids, which offers support to the young transgender community and their families, further extended Starbucks' support for the transgender community. | |
