Bel Brands USA's Babybel Partners with Timbaland
References: cheatsheet
Bel Brands USA's snackable cheese brand — Babybel — has initiated a promotional collaboration with music producer Timbaland. This has resulted in a limited-edition music release titled Mini Wax Tracks.
The collaborative marketing initiative involves the creation of two remixed versions of Babybel's song — I'm Your Baby. The pop and EDM versions of this track are pressed onto three-inch vinyl records designed to visually resemble the brand's characteristic red snackable cheese wax.
This music-focused campaign also includes a consumer sweepstakes, which will give individuals the chance to win physical copies of the records alongside a compatible turntable. The two remixes are also being distributed through major digital streaming services. All in all, this project is intended to deliver unexpected, culturally relevant engagements that mirror the playful and convenient nature of the snack product itself.
