Each Clue Hunt uses teasers through Instagram posts and stories that prompt users to take a guess on the next color drop. Nugget will strategically place clues in captions and images for a few days before announcing the new color to the public.

This social strategy encourages customers to interact heavily with the brand’s posts, which will increase engagement levels overall.
