References: rewards.hudsonvilleicecream & mlive
Hudsonville Ice Cream is conducting a promotional campaign titled the Ultimate Ice Cream Fan contest. This activation invites participants to submit a brief 30-second video explaining why they are the 'Ultimate Ice Cream Fan' for a chance to win a $3,000 monetary award, a year-long provision of premium ice cream from Hudsonville Ice Cream, and ancillary branded experiences. The latter add-ons include branded ice cream swag, "the possibility of creating their own distinct flavor at Hudsonville's state-of-the-art headquarters," and early access to future flavor launches.
The launch of the Ultimate Ice Cream Fan contest coincides with the introduction of a new limited-edition Birthday Cake flavor and the establishment of a broader customer loyalty program.
All of these major activations are framed within the context of the brand’s centennial celebration.
