Forging Fan Connection With the Sounds of the MCU

Klipsch partnered with Wpromote to launch a full-funnel marketing campaign celebrating its collaboration with Marvel’s X-Men ‘97 on the limited edition X-Men ‘97 Flexus Core 200 Sound Bar, featuring creative driven by the sounds of the Marvel universe. The campaign targeted multiple audiences through sweepstakes, social media, and Snapchat ads, using a test-and-learn strategy to optimize results and engage both lifelong fans and new customers.
