Bartending has always been a way of life and a part of an identity.
The social web is the ideal tool for a bartender to express himself and gain visibility in his own environment, even at an
international level

Vertical websites and blogs quickly become influential voices and benchmarks for the bartenders audience

Many bartenders have chosen Facebook to keep and increase the links with their professional network

Friendships and professional contacts are managed together in a funny way. The multimedia features give bartenders the possibility to express themselves “digitally” in a way
which is consistent with what they do behind the bar. They can invite friends to events at their bars; they can upload pictures and videos of their creations; they can create events
and community pages themselves
The interest in the beverage world is widely spread and aggregates crowds of passionate fans

Twitter is crowded with bartenders and mixologists, twitting about their
recipes, events, competitions, awards. This is true in the English-speaking countries much more than elsewhere (even if Twitter is already
very big in Japan and it is rapidly growing everywhere)

A way to keep in touch with their world and communicate anything with their tweets (even from the bar!)
The world of Mixology and Bartending is narrated and represented also through images of thousands of amateurs and nightlife lovers.
On YouTube millions of views are reached by a lot of videos aboutflair bartending. Also cocktail preparations, videos of famous bars, performances by the bartending celebrities are often YouTube hits

tricks…)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDLr99tlGiA
The great potential of social media is that they allow talented people to
quickly gain popularity, even worldwide.

MIXING TRIVIAL
THE MIXING STARON THE SOCIAL WEB
THE MIXING STARWEBSITE
The Mixing Star profiles were created on all the main social networks, and actively integrated with the web site (eg: Facebook social plugin; YouTube embedding tools). Also, a Facebook application (Mixing Trivial) was created to engage bartenders in a different way. Facebook ads were directed to the Mixing Trivial application. The Mixing Star ads were positioned within the application. Social profiles and FB app all played the same role of positioning the Disaronno brand and communicating the innovation of The Mixing Star competition
Guidelines of social media activities for The Mixing Star
- Grow every social channel through the periodic posting and spreading of brand-related contents (balancing information, professional contents, entertainment) - Attract new fans and followers. Build a community of people around the initiative - Make the bartenders try and use the Mixing Trivial Facebook app (which can itself take people to register to The Mixing Star competition website) - Adapt each content according to the features of each social media; creating synergies and cross-links between each social media, the website and the Mixing Trivial app
Tone of voice and subjects - cocktail recipes, with related information and suggestions
- the myth of the Star of Mixing, that is Mixology as an art, Hollywood as playground, the Hall of Fame as goal
- news, information and curiosities about the cocktails world
- the different codes and meanings of the cocktails world, cocktails pictures, cocktails preparation techniques
- famous cocktail- or bartending- related places, bars, movies, novels
- Mixing Trivial’s contents
- call to actions for The Mixing Star competition, countdown for events and The Stars’ proclamation
