TikTok爆紅背後：Stanley如何用「車燒杯不燒」事件逆襲？

Posted by qkpcmjwn on July 5, 2025

2023年11月，一則「Stanley保溫杯在車禍火燒中完好」的TikTok影片引爆全球，觀看量破億。這支「意外廣告」不僅拯救了曾經停產的Stanley Quencher系列，更讓Stanley年銷翻倍至7.5億美元。

一、病毒式行銷：抓住「真實感」的流量密碼

事件契機：Stanley 火燒車影片中焦黑的車體與完好的杯子形成強烈對比，網友留言「Stanley應該付你廣告費！」，品牌總裁秒回「送新車+杯子」，公關危機變成最佳宣傳。

社群擴散：TikTok #stanleycup 標籤累積28億觀看，網紅們爭相拍攝「極限測試」影片，強化「堅不可摧」的品牌形象。

二、聯名策略：讓收藏欲爆發

星巴克 stanley跨界合作：與星巴克推出粉紅情人節限定款，Target超市前排起長隊；與歌手Lainey Wilson聯名11分鐘售罄，創造「搶購文化」。

Stanley 星巴克顏色經濟：每季推出新色（如冰川白、活力橙），鼓勵消費者「集色」，Instagram上：StanleyColorCollection 話題突破百萬帖文。

三、情感連結：超越杯子本身

身份認同：都市女性人手一杯，彷彿拿到「中產生活」的通行證，甚至衍生「沒有Stanley就不合群」的社交壓力。

環保理念：主推「用一輩子」的耐用性，呼應Z世代反一次性塑膠的價值觀。推薦選購：Stanley x 星巴克聯名紅正品現貨

結語

史丹利的成功，是「產品力+行銷腦洞+情感共鳴」的勝利。下次看到有人拿著粉色 Stanley 杯，千萬別只羨慕她的杯子——那是她對生活的態度和社交貨幣！
