Future Lunchbox Academy

The Ask

“How do you break through the noise to engage the K-12 IT decision-makers who are bombarded with tech solutions daily?”

— Lenovo Education Marketing

Insight

Many K-12 IT Decision Makers are tech-savvy professionals who geek out over nostalgic collectibles just as much as they do tech innovation.

Idea

Playing into the nostalgic interests of K-12 IT decision-makers, we designed a fictional cast of characters and sent out custom retro lunchboxes as part of a targeted direct mail campaign.

But there was a catch

It was missing the thermos. To claim their thermos and complete their set, recipients had to visit a landing page, driving engagement and capturing high-quality leads for Lenovo.

Impact

The campaign generated $3.2M in attributable sales, with 81% engagement and an 18% conversion rate, proving the power of tailored messaging and strategic outreach.
