The brief

What buyers ask for in a Brand Activation brief.

A typical Brand Activation brief lands with these four asks. The operational stack gets engineered around them — every time.

01
Single-QR entry
Single QR opens a full game library — spin-the-wheel, scratch cards, decibel meters, selfie walls, gesture games. No app installs.
02
Same-second rewards
Reward fulfilment fires same-second to the consumer's phone — coupon, voucher, prize confirmation, retargeting consent capture.
03
Brand-owned data
First-party consumer data captured at point of entry, retained per consent, exportable to the brand's CRM same-day. Platform-agnostic.
04
Multi-store ops
Same activation lands identically across 80+ stores, 12 cities, multiple retail chains. Brand-controlled OTA content updates.
The runbook

From brief to follow-up. The Brand Activation runbook.

Signature moments

The moments engineered into every Brand Activation.

Two moments that distinguish a Zlicc-built Brand Activation from a generic one — and what the production stack does to make them land.

Moment 01
The signature moment

The photograph the consumer wants to post.

Anamorphic storefront installations, gesture-driven light shows, decibel-driven reveals, projection-mapped storefronts — the visual moment engineered specifically for the consumer photograph that drives organic reach.

Moment 02
Single-QR game library

One QR. The whole game library.

Spin-the-wheel, scratch cards, gesture games, decibel meters, selfie walls — all behind one QR. Same-second reward fulfilment. Brand-owned data. The consumer's phone is the entry point and the prize-delivery channel.
